Use the 6 P's
Persistent
Practice
Prevents
Pitifully
Poor
Performance
Keep practicing and refining your technique. Ask your sensei what you need to work on specifcally for your grading and then go and do it.
Good luck!

Heres the sylabus(sorry for the spelling error):
Kata:
-Tekki Shodan
Kihon(basics):
-step in punching
-rising block reverse punch
-outside block, elbow strike, backfist, reverse punch(combo)
-knife hand block, front leg front snap kick, spear hand strike(combo)
-double front kicks(not jumping)
-double roundhouse kicks(not jumping)
-side snap kicks in kiba dachi stance(horse or side stance)
-side thrust kicks in horse stance
Combinations:
-roundhouse kick, side thrust kick, reverse punch(off the same leg)
-sensei might throw in another one(depedning on how we're doing)
One-step Kumite(sparring):
-step in punch other side rising blocks and reverse punch
-step in punch body other side outside blocks and reverse punch
-front kick and blocked by downward block
-side thrust kick(block of any choice), reverse punch
-spinning back kick(block of any choice), reverse punch
thats about it. sometimes the sensei doing the grading changes stuff around a bit. i guess you'd have to be there to understand some of the things if you don't train in karate or shotokan. |
