Sparring Offered Thursdays from 6:00 - 7:00 Our Sparring class is for Empty Hand Point Sparring, Empty Hand Non-Stop Sparring, and Weapon Sparring. Our Point Sparring is Tournament Based, of which there are a few a year and are always great opportunities for a friendly competition against people at the same level and great chances to meet our Martial Brothers and Sisters from other schools within our system (see Links for other schools within our system). Weapon Sparring is done with 'Combat Swords' and 'Combat Staffs', which are foam weapons, they can represent bo staffs, spears, straight swords, broad swords, short sticks, or any other weapon you can imagine. We wear full face protective head gear when weapon sparring, along with the normal hand gear, foot gear and groin gear(see our ProShop). This class is an opportunity to practice some of the applications you learn in class and to improve your over all martial ability including self defense. We focus a lot on control and never go full contact. Weapon Sparring Pictures
