    Don't bounce! It wastes your energy way too fast! Just stay calm on the balls of your feet, this will allow you to move quickly. Also, don't let your opponent just come in and clinch you. When you see him coming in for a clinch, put a foot in his chest or punch him in the chest. You also need to rechamber your legs and work on your speed. Were you tired in this video? It looks like you were because your hands were always down at your sides. Maybe it's because you don't get kicks to the head much... Also, don't be so linear in your attacks. Move around your opponent (better yet, make them move around you) so that you can come at the guy from lots of different angles. Use your hands, they're not just weights at the ends of your arms. TKD has lots of cool kicks, but remember, you have more than just two weapons at your disposal. Can you not punch at the head in your school? At least make some feints with your hands; get your opponent thinking about them as weapons just as much as your feet. It would end a lot of those clinch situations a lot quicker!
