The 2nd Student Grade (abbreviated to 2SG) is the second of three grades which together make up the Foundation Stage of the FWTS Training Programme.
The purpose of the 2SG programme is to expand upon all the fundamentals introduced at 1SG. Having got to grips with the basics of movement and coordination, we can now apply those abilities across a wider range of possibilities.
Single targets become multiple targets. Attacks to the head become attacks to the whole body. Simple punches are combined with kicks. Defensive techniques are expanded to the lower zones, and your personal toolkit of movements grows much larger.
As your ability grows, so too will your confidence and your overall awareness of hostile movement. It’s a great feeling to know that you’re improving.
