ADVANCED DEVELOPMENT · GRADING · COMPETITION PREPARATION

Train with purpose. Review every stage.

A performance pathway for experienced students who need technical structure, controlled intensity and useful feedback.

PERFORMANCE PILLARS

Skill remains the centre of performance training.

01

Technical quality

Clean mechanics, balance and efficient movement under pressure.

02

Decision making

Distance, timing and tactical choices matched to the ruleset.

03

Physical preparation

Conditioning that supports skill without replacing technical work.

04

Review

Short feedback cycles with one clear adjustment at a time.

EIGHT-WEEK BLOCK

Build, apply, sharpen and taper.

Training blocks change with the student’s grading, demonstration or competition date.

WEEKS 1–2

Technical base

Stance, movement, mechanics and aerobic consistency.

WEEKS 3–4

Combination work

Link skills while keeping posture and control.

WEEKS 5–6

Scenario rounds

Apply tactics under controlled and clearly stated rules.

WEEKS 7–8

Review and taper

Reduce unnecessary volume and sharpen the final priorities.

VIDEO AND COACH REVIEW

Feedback should lead to one useful change.

Selected technical work can be reviewed for posture, timing, distance and tactical decision making.

  • Short clips, not endless analysis
  • One priority per review
  • Context from fatigue and training rules
  • Written next-step note

Distance and timing choices match the situation.
