BATTLEFIELD KALI 2nd DEGREE INSTRUCTOR TEST
(CLINCH RANGE)
After passing your Level 6 test, you must log another 60 rounds of clinch sparring, and 60 rounds of long and middle range sparring including the clinch. If you train twice per week, and do five rounds of sparring per session, it will take you 12 weeks (about 3 months) to be qualified to take the Level 2 Instructor test. Please be sure to take care of your partner in training and during the test.
Once you have completed all of your rounds, put the following test on video and send it in with the testing fee. If sending through YouTube, you can pay for the fee online.
The entire video should be 20 minutes. Your test will be evaluated and any suggestions for further improvement will be sent to you along with your certificate of rank.
Since you have already proven yourself with the other tests, this instructor test will delve deeper into each section. The test is as follows:
