Firstly, I think well done for posting a video. You will inevitably just get people saying some version of "this is shit", so well done for posting it in the face of that anyway.
Secondly, it's got actual sparring in it, so anybody telling you it's shit and hasn't posted a video of themselves sparring in some form should probably be quiet. Most people in CMA just practice forms.
Thirdly, what's your motivation for posting this? You didn't give any comment with the video.
People usually post a video for
1. Hey, just a good-natured, "I thought you'd like to see what we do and I'm interested in what you think" - queue torrent of Internet abuse (naivety usually - I do this a lot so I'm naive).
2. Asking for advice "What am I doing wrong?" (sometimes sincere).
3. Marketing (showing off). "I think I'm good enough that I'm confident to show you what I do."
I've got lots I could say about the video, but don't want to say anything if you're not actually interested in pointers. I suppose I could phrase it in a "why are you doing this particular thing?" type way, rather than as criticism.
I guess I'm asking - what do you want out of this?
