catchtom Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I was wondering if people who practice chinese martial art spar in class and do you go all out or do you pull your punches/kicks/knees/elbows and so on. I mean Full contact sparring, not point sparring. Live to learn. I am a White belt in BJJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonecrusher69 Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 of course if you have use control when your fighting.Or use some sort of protection,but i perferr notto use any protection that way its more realistic. http://www.youtube.com/user/sifumcilwrath"When the student is ready the master will appear" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MenteReligieuse Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Only the advandced students spar in my school. Alot of multiple enemies situation, even though we do wing chun we see some ground grappling and stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gold dragon Posted August 2, 2005 Share Posted August 2, 2005 we spar with no pads and at a semi hard contact. I like sparring with no pads. I seem to be able to feel the postition of my opponent better. It also seems much easier to stick to your opponent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infrazael Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Yes, sparring. Mostly for me is medium to heavy contact (always with gloves, headgear is negated sometimes).Not as much full contact, but I can live with that since my kung fu is still quite weak compared to others.When my sihings and I are more proficient with our Fist then we will decrease the rules. Right now we don't use much elbows and knees, but trust me that's going to change VERY quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busling Posted August 29, 2005 Share Posted August 29, 2005 From 2nd level and up we do point sparing with protective gear. (used by light contact and I miss it). From 4th level and up, we do Chi Sao sparring with just a mouth guard.On the weekends, we can do, point, light or full contact. Full contact has to be with head guards, 16oz gloves and belly pads. Sometimes we also do some grappling sparring. Train Hard --- http://www.combatcentres.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
