CTTKDKing Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I would love a chance to try my hand at sparring against students of different systems. I don't know of any place where I could do this though. I live in Hartford area of CT. Anyone know of a place, or have any suggestions.

Jiffy Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 Unfortunately, I don't live in your area, but where I live, they have a competition called National All Styles. Basically all styles are invited to compete. My advise would be to look for something like this in your area. Start with one of the governing organisations, they should be able to help you or at least point you in the right direction. The mind is like a parachute, it only works when it's open.

karatekid1975 Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 I agree with Jiffy. Look for "open" style tournies. My dojang goes to one in CT all the time (we are in NY), but it's TKD. Laurie F Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unknownstyle Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 tournaments are the best bet to find alot of different styles in one place "Live life easy and peacefully, but when it is time to fight become ferocious." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmorOfGod Posted January 7, 2006 Share Posted January 7, 2006 http://www.meetup.com/Go to that site and build a multistyle workout group. There may already be a martial arts workout group in your area listed there.If not, go to that site and make one.Also, go to http://www.karatetournaments.com/ and click on your state to see if there are upcoming open style tournaments soon.

CTTKDKing Posted January 9, 2006 Author Share Posted January 9, 2006 Thanks Armor of God. I'll check out that site. Thanks DokterVet as well, although I just found out I can't send PM's yet for some reason. "The key to immortality is first living a life worth remembering."

swdw Posted January 11, 2006 Share Posted January 11, 2006 Seminars are another way to work with other people. Just pop in some of the other schools in your area and ask if they'll be hosting any seminars aor know of any coming up.Since schools hosting seminars usually get a cut of the attendance (all, if they're giving the seminar), they are usually more than happy to tell a visitor about it.
