You really do have your work cut..well both of you do don't you. Keep training hard and good luck!

[RichardHangHong]

Wow! Looks like you've got some test coming up eh?

Not really sure I can help with advice on the controlled sparring as kyokushin is full contact and I train in non-contact. Only advice I can give is follow the do's and don'ts for kumite, whatever they may be. Perhaps you could share a little light on that subject for us...

Have fun with it. Controlled sparring is just that. No one's supposed to get hurt. Your just demonstrating good technique at about 30-50% power. It can be tough, because generating enough speed to actually land technique's while putting strong controls on your power takes practice. I'm sure the black belts you fight will probably be very controlled.

Good luck at testing! Just watch your distance in the controlled sparring. Throw your techniques with good speed, and pull them short if you have to.

i am pretty sure you know all of these just as reminder

pick up a target for your punch and just hit the same spot over and over

work on kicking under mawashi gery and following take down, it 's a usefull technique in kyokushin
