FREE SPARRING

We practice semi-contact sparring with full safety gear. Safety is our number one priority. This is where you put into practice the skills that you have learnt. When sparring against higher grades there is no danger of getting hurt as the emphasis is on the higher grades to show control and to help the lower grades learn and develop their techniques.
