sensei8 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Maybe, Safroot and Canadian77 can share your journeys together via Skype. As an idea. That's pretty good idea but the main problem will be the time zone ... Australia (2nd country see the sun) vs Canada (may be last country to see the sun) ... Some how I think you'd both work out the time zone thingy. After all, you're both MAists!! I guess we can Try it. Either it will be a great idea or it won't be. Good luck, let me know if it works out. **Proof is on the floor!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luther unleashed Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I felt this was the place to put this! Sparring at my school is something that is called "continuous sparring"! We don't do sport or "point sparring". Sometimes I wish we did because it gets rough which I hate, but it is more relevant for self defense. This is a sparring session from black belt testing. The first matchup is with a guy with a broken toe (black head gear) and the second matchup, the big guy just turned 15 a few days ago, he huge. He's also got autism, so that why he responded the way he did when he was struck in the throat! Video here... http://youtu.be/h85lwpfF-3w. Just uploaded it today, testing was a few days ago. Hustle and hard work are a substitute for talent! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cheesefrysamurai Posted March 10, 2014 Share Posted March 10, 2014 I used to dread sparring. I hated it. I'm not super competitive and I didn't see it for what it was. I have a better understanding now. To me it's not a competition. It's a tool, it's an obstacle, and the only way to get over the obstacle is by clocking hours in the fight. Now I almost look forward to it, why? Because I know every single time I'm chipping away at something, every single time is valuable training, it might be foot work, might be stamina, might be defending or attacking. It's fun to see progress, to climb that ladder, you get a couple shots in on the right guy, no matter what else happened you feel like a champ Nothing Worth Having Is Easily Obtained - ESPECIALLY RANK Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
