These comments talking smack..lets get something straight here haters,the guy is a white belt,he's not going to be perfect,it takes many many years to really learn something.Second,the comments regarding his physical status,he doesn't need to be in shape before starting,and he clearly stated that one of his goals was to get in shape.Respect to him for deciding to take that first step in getting there.
+soulwindow00 can't agree more
It took me 3 months to get yellow belt and in wasnt good at most of that stuff and i still got and now im a green belt
It only takes being active to do push-ups 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
he's not bad for white belt. I don't think it's that bad. it's just when kicking, don't kick with the toe of feet but the surface where it is harder.
Much respect to you
Perhaps the people criticising this student should remember the following:
Ye Ui (Courtesy)
Guk Gi (Self control)
By berating this student you are NOT upholding the tenets of Taekwondo... shame on you.
I'm glad someone said it
Those pushups were pitiful, but I‘d think that his balance has most likely improved majorly from Day 1, and he is probably much better now. Maybe a world champion.
dan walker. I don’t study Tae Know Do. I study American Kenpo
dan walker I do American Kenpo
Well said
Never Say " I can't " or " I'm not good at this ", because it puts your self-esteem and confidence down! Just do your Best !!! Good Job though :()
I agree, that's why you always yell and say I can and try your best and you might surprise yourself.
I can´t shoot a dinosaur ;)
Ik it looks easy but trust me it is not i also learn taekwondo
My god, people are so picky, why would you try to put people off martial arts?, we need to encourage people to take up martial arts not put them off !!!!!!!!!!
This guy did his best, everyone's basic physical ability is different, he's a big chap, so push ups are very difficult, (put someone on your back and then do them - you'll see what i mean) It will be a while until he develops the muscle to be able to push up his own bodyweight, but if he carries on he will get there.
Some of his techniques have little or no reaction force but it's early days, the instructor can fine tune his technique later, there's no rush. The main thing at this grade is to remember things, some of it gets forgotten - so what? THAT'S WHY WE'RE THERE, THAT'S WHY WE ALL GO. The proficiency comes with practice, practice only happens over time, you can't practice quickly.
THE MARTIAL ARTS IS FOR EVERYONE !!! ALL SIZES, ALL CREEDS, ALL ABILITIES, ABLE BODIED, DISABLED, EVERYONE !!!!!! I've even seen a Chimpanzee doing Martial Arts (quite funny actually).
Keep 'em coming in the door, that;s the main thing.
You are so right. Thank you for saying it.
Bloody good effort. Wanting to improve himself is fantastic. I hope this guy followed through with his training after all these years. Respect.
24 hours in a day. Taekwondo is a way of life. I think he did ok, with time and as his training continues he will get better. For the ones that are booing I say "the journey of a thousand steps begins with the first". This guy is out there doing instead of giving negative criticism.
Why knock the kid? He's progressing from a White to a Yellow Belt. This progression is really an encouragement move. He gave the best he could. As far as only being able to do 5 push-ups, its a wise person who knows his limitations. He could be on the streets getting up to strife but he isn't, he's learning a discipline, so lets encourage people like that. More power to him.
Well Said. The amount of negativity I see on youtube is horrifying. Good on the lad for trying and putting 100% effort in his training. A black belt is a white belt that never gave up. I hope he's still doing it and not caring what others are saying. Martial Arts isn't just about beating someone and winning a fight - it's about discipline and changing yourself to be a better person... which clearly a lot of individuals commenting on this video need. Every dojang does things differently. If his instructors say 'do it this way' then the lads not going to ignore that and risk not getting his belt just to please the idiots on here who have no idea what they're on about. Well done godfist1! Keep at it!
He can't do 5 push ups. He didn't do a single rep.
@@lixter13 I live in Perth, Western Australia and would like to commend you for your comments. If more people gave encouragement the way you have done, the World would be a better place. As for me I have long considered that those that can -do; those that can't critisise.
As a 2nd Dan, I really don't like the way this grading was held. A grading isn't all about the technique, especially at the low Kup grades, self-discipline and attitude is most important.So all the talking shouldn't have happened. Give the command and let the student follow, if the technique is wrong but is shown with full commitment, that is absolutely fine. Also I found it slightly wrong that the master had to be called Sir at any given moment, a bow is enough to show respect to a high grade, however well done on passing your grade :)
+Michael Blakey I agree. when I was training I did the same. he immediately said it was not needed. I find at leas,t for myself that it took more breath and energy away then needed
+Michael Blakey I agree with you and as we know only upon reaching a Black Belt are you a teachable student
+Michael Blakey So true sir. It is a lower belt and about discipline. Thank you sir.
Michael Blakey I completely agree and I am so only orange
I'm a 3th dan
First off i was not refusing to do the push ups. I was physically unable to do them. Second this is nearly a year ago. I am now a purple belt going to be red so i have much improved. And it seems other people dont think i was that bad. I won two gold medals and a bronze in the Rhode Island Open Tae Kwon Do State Championship.
Rhode Island! I knew I liked you! I grew up in Newport. Brother, when you're a dan grade, put up another video and show them all what you turned into. Nothing like a tornado kick to silence critics.
You still do it?
Wohooo🎉🎉 go man!!!!
Congratulations. Ignore the idiots who are hating on this video. you did well. I wish you the best of luck for your kwon journey.
You only have to be better than one person and that is the person you were before you took the test. The only other test is combat and that depends on the opponent you have sparring doesn't mean anything if it doesn't work when you need it. I have seen many styles and I have seen Black belts beat by lower belts and I have seen street fighters do a great deal of damage to Higher and lower belts. Practice and train to master you own fear and your own desire to prove how good you are.
Bruce Grainger that’s right!!
I remember doing this when I was eleven, I should start doing it again
OMG I'm doing my test for yellow belt today at 4:00 pm and I'm eleven XD
No shit... I’d probably look worse than this poor fat bastard lol.
SAME HERE BRO.
Don’t break your back pls lol
As a master instructor myself I think the kid did a great job, only been attending a very short time.
Some people are just so toxic. Understand that he's still a white belt. And dont call him out of shape, thats kind of the point of Tae Kwon Do, to get fit, flexible and to learn self defense.
My instructor is big and he is a black belt
The fact that he told his sansei out loud that he couldn't do push ups during a test should've been an automatic fail
+Ricks Bricks! Sadly, yes
Xbox Jared he can barely do push ups
1st off...........TKD teacher is Sabum Nim
2 im sure they'll work on it. When i first got involved in martial arts i wasnt good at push ups but it came to me over time
I’m a yellow belt and that is not yellow belt testing it !! He is testing to get white yellow belt! And it doesn’t go white belt, yellow belt!! It goes - white , white yellow, yellow , orange, green , blue , purple , red , jr black, black
Well, I'm 45 and can't do sit ups very well. But I'm also overweight and have a desk job :)
Hey man, for a white belt going to yellow, you did good. I've seen some higher ranking students in many different schools still not at the level you're at when it comes to quality. Keep it up. Osu
My test is on Friday see them
Well done lad! Ignore people on here with negative comments! It's a journey and you have started well!
Jon Farthing He has done his best but before starting the belt he should've gotten more into shape, I know he has done well but he just needs more flexibility and power in some places of his body all in all he has tried really well
as a black belt...this was interesting....I applaud him for completing his test....a black uniform in my school....reserved for black belts.....and when asked to do 10 push up's, there would NOT be no " im not good at push up's"......but this all goes back to the instructor and how the students are taught/disciplined
I'm only a white belt :(
don't fret....Study and dedicate yourself to your Art. don't think about where you are, set your path to where you want to go. good luck! :) Lexy Blue
JaPaNeSe_lotus i just got promoted to a yellow belt not too long ago :)
Congratulations!!! samantha foster
JaPaNeSe_lotus thanks
He did great!!! this guy did really good for his yellow belt. This is your first belt. There will be no perfection.. as time progresses and the years go on he will get better and better.. In a few years when he gets black belt. He will loose the weight and he will get in shape. I lost 20 pounds training for my black belt. It was intense. This guy will get there. This is just the beginning. I think he did great. As he goes thru the belts it will get more strict.
Everyone needs to understand this is only White to Yellow Belt the later belts take a lot more time for the test
I've been in TKD since 99 and I'm about to test for my third degree. There were a few years that were spotty for me when it comes to attending class so I'm farther behind than I'd probably be. But one of the lessons I learned while in TKD and working as an assistant instructor is that one person's 100% may not look like someone else's 100%. "It's not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the area, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood..." That guy got into TKD knowing he wasn't in his best shape and probably wanted more for himself and that's what he's doing. Good on you! I just found your channel and I hope to see more TKD videos. If there aren't anymore, I know that TKD isn't for everyone and I for one would never hold a grudge against someone that tried it and decided it wasn't for them.
Heck yeah!! Great job, man! Keep on keepin' on! Practice, practice, practice!!
thank you for uploading this video. my test for yellow belt is approaching this weekend.i had soothed my nerves, i can see what a proud moment is that for you., great video, thanks again.
Never question your instructor.They are fully aware of what they are doing,they are black belts for a reason.
You couldn't be more wrong
Alright every one on here claiming to be a "red belt" ....please go away...lies never helped anyone keyboard warriors. Listen brother, I compete in Muay Thai and in MMA. Anyone on here claiming to be some master fighter please feel free to come to Muay Thai School USA in North Hollywood and show your skills. Listen dude don't let anybody hating on your pushups, kicks, or time spent testing get to you. No one is amazing when they first start, and the whole point of Martial Arts is admitting your weaknesses and learning how to beat them into submission. Keep training and learning, and fight free. Well done and congrats on your yellow belt, now hold yourself to a much higher standard and grow in that. Also, this is my bias...but I would tap into a little bit of Muay Thai too ;)
lol telling people not to say their "red belts" and your saying so much stuff about yourself. Nobody wants to know.
Sure but dont you think he should master his techniques 100% before getting the next belt? Manage to do 10 pushups before he takes the test. The master wanted 10 and he knew he had to do 10 so why wasnt he able to (he had the time to prepare). Its like building a castle on soft ground, you will never build the castle to its maximum if you dont have the fundamentals. You get what i mean?
TheUnseenBefore I didn't say a lot, I was honest and encouraging, so I don't get how that compares to someone claiming to be a grandmaster in their art. It means a lot more to someone when someone who actually competes speaks life into them.
olivator1000 The guy has to start somewhere, I have no idea who his trainer is or how they do their testing, but people are so quick to judge someone when they don't even know where they're coming from. He's young and just started, leave him alone, it never helps to keyboard warrior someone down.
MrWolverine113 Of course but the test seems too easy. He didnt even sweat. Ive seen other of his test and are just as this one. Its too easy to get on a high level. Its sad and it takes the credibility of traditional martial arts even though they are the best. I glad Im in an incredible Dojo I could not feel happier. Im not angry at him. I just find it disappointing.
The MC-Dojo is strong in this one.
olol
Doja*
Dojang*
You can tell he was ready for this belt. He did pretty well for a white belt. It’s interesting how different schools and instructors do tests differently… and how different curriculum can be even within the same style. However, he showed proper respect and good effort and was able to perform his techniques set and form without major mistakes… I would have certified him as well. Hope he sticks with it over the years, and looks back on this early video when he becomes a Black Belt and sees such a huge improvement. Good for him.
I remember getting my yellow belt in taekwondo. Martial arts is the only thing that prevented me from killing myself
I just started martial arts😃🔫
Everyone should remember that this is not his fault, but the masters fault for not teaching him properly. You never put someone up for a graduation, if they can't do it right. It is the responsibility of the Sabumnim that has failed here.
Everyone tests to their ability not yours or anyone else. We don't know what kind of shape he was in when he started out. It is still a long road to Black Belt and plenty of time to improve. His techniques are actually not bad. A real instructor can see the potential he has.
Love the energy and enthusiam of this students
The way he put the yellow belt on looked pretty badass
I fell Bad for this kid, and Anyone who goes to this so called school. He got Ripped off. NO REAL instructor will Allow a white belt to break 2 boards with a hand tech let alone with a Punch. POWER Break???? He has No Idea How to apply his hips, Which is How you Generate POWER. Also the kid is tired because he HASN'T learned how to relax between moves, and Apply his power,and I Wouldn't call this Tae Kwon Do. Well not the TKD I've been training in for the past 20 yrs, and my Master Instructor has been teaching for 30+ yrs.
If you see a small dojo with out of shape instructors it's usually going to be a Mcdojo.
@@excessgryphon1568 im pretty goat for a white belt
@@excessgryphon1568 i didn't expect a response UWU
I just had my 2nd dan black belt test and this was refreshing. It brought back a lot of memories. The only thing I would interject here is that the "I can't" would have been frowned upon greatly. You would do the push ups as best as you can even if you couldn't do all ten. You sometimes get tested on your heart as opposed to your actual ability. How much do you want it?
Keep training hard my man. With an attitude like yours, you will go far. Peter Regan. President ITF Switzerland.
We dont have this in boxing except the humilty part I Love Boxing and Taekwondo
What is the "sir" about at the end of every sentence?:/
Respect.
Darryl Greer it's how they respect their teacher
Yeah respect. You need to have respect, i.e. Me testing for my deputy black belt :3 and saying sir at every end of a sentence.
Darryl Greer we say yes sensie
Scarmesh The term for instructor in taekwondo is Sah bum nim
what is it about taekwondo/usa and "sir"". Its funny with "one sir, two sir, thank you sir LOL. He was god to get a yellow belt. Keep it up :-)
I think he WORKS HARD. and is sincere in his training, I hope he keeps it up
I respect the student who wants to Be better physically, while learning to protect himself. You work together as a team to help each other to develop through learning forms, one step fighting, and free fighting techniques, or sparring. You learn honor and respect of each other.
Well done on getting your yellow belt and you have a good teacher
Great job!! Congrats on your new belt!
but I gotta say, IMO, you shouldn't say "1, sir. 2,sir..." you wouldn't be able to control your breathing, and breathing properly is essential. keep up the good work :)
it fills me great joy seeing people succeed :D
in most tae kwon-do places it is required to say "1, sir 2, sir..." but i do agree that you are not able to control your breathing properly.
WhoLikesPie? oh... alright. the way we do things here in my place isn't like this, so i was shocked. ah well, learn new stuff everyday~
***** yep :P
They they 1 sir, 2 sir, because what if the master dosent believe him?🐠
Confidence is sooo important. Anyone involved in TKD should have respect. Gradings are scary but the people are very respectful and understanding. If you muck up, compose yourself and continue - don't freak out and have a panic, just carry on and look as though it was all apart of the grading :) Good luck!
"That's not what I call situps, nor pushups. this is a dojo. no playground. You failed!" my senai would have screamed.
That form you were doing looks an awful lot like Taikyoku Shodan, a kata from Shotokan. Interesting to see some parallels.
Thought the same thing when I saw that too.
BigBertFun Yea I know that. What I was saying is that his form looked like Shotokan Karate. I wasn't sure if this was intentional.
My test is 2-3 hours long.
Same
I'm not talking about a yellow belt I measn my black belt test was 2-3hours past it easily by the way. :)
+MotoMatt you just learn your theory and a pattern called Dan Gun
Which tkd do you do and what did you do for 40 minutes in a yellow belt grading?
My black belt test was 6 hours long
You are the one that inspired me to start taekwondo
Good to hear from you later
-the tkd boy from Malaysia-
Thanks champ, this gave me a good idea of what to expect in the grading. Keep it up, your motivation and spirit is inspirational!
Congrats on your belt first of all. But that taeguk looked more like a kata from karate. Taeguk 1 is totally different.
That looked like Kihon Shodan from several Karate styles.
The first form he did was Takiyoko shodan. It's a preliminary kata designed for younger Shotokan karate students before they are introduced to the real katas, starting with heian shodan
Robert Vallombroso I understand but i don't understand then why the title of the video is taekwondo :P
viktor peters yeah it is odd. I just wanted to let you know that you're right about the kata thing and that I recognize the kata he did
well there is a Korean flag on the wall. and the instructor is wearing a TKD uniform. Maybe they modified it.. It started out like Taeguek 1.
Sorry to say but you really need to workout more. I'm a white belt who can do 50 consecutive push ups without stopping and 120 sit ups without stopping. Barely in martial arts for 3 months, no prior exercise or experience before joining.
Yeah you need to be fit its also the balance a lot balance technique and much more to preform good
I am into 4th week of TKD training, and I am feeling so happy for this guy. I have had a disc bulge at L4-L5 and due to which I have a very tight glute and hamstring and I am struggling so much with stretching and forward bending.
I'm 46 and I'm definitely about to sign up💪🏾 I wonder where this kid is now. I know he's bad ass 🥰🫰🏾💪🏾
Poor kid is getting scammed on his money and on this Martial Art or dojo he is at... And the black belt is trying to give him work out advice in streght when he looks weak, out of shape and looks like he does not work out at the gym... Man I just hope you find your self a better Martial Arts School and a true self defences Martial Art school...
Why are you hating going to him Michael calm down not all schools are the same
+Michael Vasquez Don't listen to theses idiots, I'm with you. This sensei almost made him break his hand by moving so close with that board. Doesn't understand snap and range I guess.
+TheGreatSeas “Gabrielomen14” Gameplay/Review/Tutorial How the fuck do you learn a martial art but not learn self-defense. You are legit? How is that?
He probably is a black belt now. He wasted a lot of money xD
+TheGreatSeas “Gabrielomen14” Gameplay/Review/Tutorial soo if you are not learning self defense then what are you learning ???
In my opinion these tests are too short. I take Kenpo and tests, even for the 3-5 year olds, the tests are about 1-3 hours long. Nobody ever tests alone, and we actually fight and freestyle. These tests are easy, and as far as I see, no Taekwondo person stands a chance against Kenpoists. Kenpo tests are about one or three hours long, when I tested for my brown belt in November of 2015, the test was 3 hours long. I was very tired, and trust me, we will all love to just show off our techniques and katas for three minutes without showing how we can defend ourselves. These tests should be longer
>Judging a martial art from one video
Topkek.
just so you know my taekwondo tests last 3-5 hours and you should not judge an entire martial by one video :)
the tawkwondo school I go to had tests that lasted 4 to 6 hours long. but the black belt test is at least 16 hours long lasting for two days. first day endurance second day is knowledge. this is in fact a really basic test that barely touch the requirements. so I wouldn't base everything on one test. it's possible that this school isn't even listed in wtf, and that it's just a dojo belt
Christine Chon Then your school is legit. Nice.
I like this guy's CONTROL when he does the Form/Hyung/Poomsae! EXCEPTIONAL for a White Belt!
first comment about comments. I didn't read a bunch, but I never did see the ones that were supposed to be talking smack. Anyway, nothing wrong with this student and his performance. It is white going to yellow, I have seen black belt tests worse than this. This gentleman did very well. Congratulations of your promotion, and the many which will follow.
in germany it takes about 2 hours in amerika 12 minutes :D
it took me an hour and I live in finland
Where I live it takes at least 1 hour for everybody to finish
+Christopher Odom u didn't have to say dumb ass u could have just said North America.
Where is the kyorugi (Sparring) test?
Oki Setiawan that is only for yello and for above
Yes I didn't see the sparring. 🤔 How come? It is the important basic part!
Because it's a Mcdojo. They know if he sparred he will get his shit pushed in so yeah
Yes mc dojo of taekwondo hahaha
lol
word of advice stop listening to people if you like this continue doing it
Well done, son. Getting yellow belt is a difficult thing to do. You are teaching your body to do new and unfamiliar techniques and you did it. Your adventure has begun. Enjoy!!
Situps- horrible.
Pushups-horrible and why are you doing them on your hands!? Guys do em on their knuckles and girls do em on their hands.
Why the hell would u say "Uhh im not good at pushups" Just do them!
Kicks were okay at best
your form was horrible, I've seen little kids do it better.
if I was that Master I would've failed you
But your not that master soooooooooo and he is only white belt don't expect a purple belt form wow so judgmental...
Dude he is only testing for white bet it's not like he's doing black belt test plus he might be tierd so yea
he's testing for a yellow belt, and he should know these things
well he might not some people dont have as great of memories as others do
then they get failed if they cant rember how to do these simple things
Lol I'm ten and a white belt and I can do more push-ups than hin
Terreria Teacher you must be superhuman
Xixou that's average dude
Sober Street i dont think you understood my comment, some comments have been erased... cheers
Any kid can do over 60 push-ups -_-
Xixou sry about that m8
Black belt is the white belt who refuse to give up
don't let people hate my daughter is 8 and takes kenpo and taekwondo remember its just the beginning with years of training you will get better and striped belts are for children not adults the more you train the better your push ups sit ups forms and patterns will be and always remember a black belt us simply a white belt who didn't give up
Nice job man!!! I'm taking my yellow belt test in like two weeks, so I decided to look up yellow belt tests on youtube. You did great!
Never accept defeat. Those are just words they're meaningless.
"Let me see you break your toes..."
He will get better the longer he practices TaekwonDo the better he be and more confident he will be
Good job dude! You did great! You’re just beginning a long journey of something that will change your life. Good luck!
I’m 32 and I just recently join back martial art after 10 years. What I have learn is it’s never too late to do anything what you love to do if you do it correctly
Good job!!
Well done buddy! Keep it going.
This was one of the first schools that i've seen that was similar to my school's program. They went way harder on testing for white belt than we do though. I didn't read down to far to see negative comments, but keep in mind that he is a beginner and a teenager. You still need to keep the program approachable for younger kids as well as older adults like myself. I am not in great shape, but I try hard when I am there. I am in the last ranks (we call Bo Dan) prior to testing for Black Belt. If I had to live up to everyone else's expectations I wouldn't still be in the program. I wish I had stayed with it in my 20s when I was a blue belt and had way more energy, but now I do the best I can to be a TKD practitioner.
I have 2 bad knees. I've been practicing almost 3 years. As long as you take precautions you should be ok. Wear a knee brace, take Aleve or similar anti-inflammatory painkiller, rest if you need to. For me TKD really helped my knees, it still hurts doing some things but my Master is very understanding. I also have asthma. TKD is very tough on me because of these 2 things, but let me tell you, I'm VERY happy I started and stayed with it. Martial Arts are very rewarding!
Good job!! Keep at it you’re gonna get better and better ☺️👏🏼
Fantastic job!
Great effort from the young man. Personally I don’t condone destruction as part is a white belt grading but good on him for having a go.
You did a great job! You got a very good sabomnin! Telling you what you need to work on!
Overdoing it with the “Sir”
This was amazing, inspirational
Awesome, dude. I know this video is kinda old but it's awesome.
Story has it,he is a grandmaster now who teaches self defense to the elderly.
Every now and then he reads your comments and laughs softly while he wonders,what would've happened if i had ever listened to the haters on my youtube video..
The test is complicated and very long considering its a yellow belt test
Anyway u did great and u got anice teacher
Keep up the good work
Long? Mine took about 2hrs
I’m taking my black belt test in three months. You did very well. Work on those shoulders and keep trying.
Great job man, you inspire me
Well done. Keep up the good work!
That was 10 years ago…I wonder how far he went with his practice. I just started last week and I’m far from where I want to be. I practice yoga almost daily and I thought I was pretty flexible but the flexibility you need for TKD takes it on a whole new level.
As a 2nd degree black belt in taekwondo, I can say this was a good test for a white belt. Job well done and keep it up
Great Job! I am a brown belt, but I remember my yellow belt was one of the tests I was most nervous for. My teacher required more skills and we had to do traditional forms. But I was so happy when I got it. My mom says TKD is harder to learn when you are a grown up so great job on being dedicated.
Lukey Janno Then your dojang doesn't follow the traditional belt system. I compete at WTF tournaments, traditional, kukkiwon, following the teachings in Korea and the Olympics. There most certainly IS a brown belt. If there wasn't i'd have no one to compete with. I am sorry you go to a McDojo that doesnt.
***** Brown belt, after purple before red in traditional kukkiwan. Some schools omit the belt add other belts one school i went to visiting with a friend even had a cammo belt. That is ATA. WTF is not ATA. WTF is an olympic sport taught all around the world with the same standards. ATA is... meh. Also if you go to a DOJO then you arent taking TKD. You are more than likely taking "American Karate" calling itself TKD cause people cant tell the difference. TKD students go to a Dojang. Dojo= Karate Dojang = TKD. I am not saying there is anything wrong with traditional schools of Karate. In fact having taken Shodokan karate i know it is totally badass. But american karate/ American TKD is a ripoff hybrid basterdization of the two sports and most schools are McDojos focusing more on making money than teaching martial arts. So enjoy your McDojo
And i may sound like a pompass asshole about this but the posts trying to belittle me saying in TKD there is no brown belt are bullshit. For example, my school does not have a green belt. I would never tell someone who has a green belt that there is no green belt in TKD. There are 3 belt systems. One has green belts one has brown and one has neither. Traditional schools usually have brown or neither. Being a dick to someone just cause your school doesnt have a belt means they will be a dick to you. Respect your senior belts! Or if you are a black belt or red belt, respect your junior belts
Very good. Breaking can be scary to a beginner but speed and power will come in time. Condition the knuckles by doing pushups on the first two knuckles.
Congratulations. You did great for a White belt promoting to a Yellow belt. Just remember never say I can't or I'm not good at anything. Also work on your stances and keeping your hands up to guard while you are kicking.
congrats man, keep up the good work. faith in your dojang is faith in yourself
Had my yellow belt test Aug 3rd. We had a written exam, and then 5 and a half HOURS of non stop exercise. Everyone had to do something different for when we did forms. I was told to do mine blindfolded. Then we had to spar after we could hardly walk and show good technique. Hardest thing I've ever done. Some kids also where belt testing and we had to do pushups with them on our back. We had to go though a unbelievable amount of work to get ours. This is awesome though. I dig that instructor. ;D
That seems to be way to much for just a yellow belt test .I guess good to show you understand everything properly but I bet your class looses students from high ranks because of absurd testing
GreatVideo Sir! Keep 'em Coming
I'm self taught in taekwondo, I train for one year and I'm thinking to do a summer camp in order to get a belt. How much time does it usually take?
"10 pushups!" Does 5 lol
Uh I know the master said do 5 your brain probably didnt read it correctly
He would have died from a heart attack if he did do 10 lol
This is exam for 8th Kup of Junior grade. Which mean it must not be his first test/exam in his career but second... Well technique is not good but I saw many of people worst... Do not worry. Congrats for getting that test passed and keep active and lets continue and grows! Good luck!
Little kids that start early get the yellow belt with ease the later you start the more potential they expect... Anyway congrats man and for all the people hating on him...GO STUFF A HARD ONE!
I’m about to do my yellow belt and this was refreshing ;)
I was, I believe 15, when I did my yellow belt grading. I had to do 20 press ups with good form (nose touching floor) AND I’m a girl (only saying this as most girls in my year can’t do a single push up). This teacher should be pushing his student harder.
