Danny Gopisetti Overall: Your grade was okay Danny! The vital moves were there but your takedowns weren’t great and there were a couple of really important details missed. When you get to green belt and above the marking criteria gets stricter as you’re dealing with more serious weapons like knives and glass bottles that can do serious damage to your body. Here’s my points for improvement next time: If your takedown isn’t working have a plan B! Pushing down on the back isn’t an effective takedown and is unlikely to work in real life. Don’t rush your punch and scratches, they’re very important and could be a fight finisher! Keep your goose close to your chest and follow through all the way to the floor Your elbow jerk needs a bit of work, the idea is your partner should end up bent to the side, and from there you can take a leg or push on a joint to get them to the floor I’d like to see more varied takedowns throughout your grade for example a head roll or a trip. If you’re going to go for the simpler takedowns like the arm bar or the head push they need to be spot on. I did however really enjoy your fab explanation and introduction at the start of the video, I applaud your confidence and was impressed by your quick reaction times! Your main techniques were there and you didn’t deviate too far from the syllabus. I’m going to pass you this time as I can see the hard work you’ve put in with your brother but when we’re back at training I’d like you to focus on the points I’ve mentioned in preparation for your next blue tag grade, it’s all in the detail! Pil Sung!
