Sparring is where you learn how to apply all the things you have practiced on the pads and with a partner. But to get the most out of your sparring you need to know how to go about it. You need to know about the three important areas of sparring so that you can maximize your strengths, improve your weaknesses, and most of all - avoid injury. We will show you step-by-step exactly what you need to know to spar safely and get the absolute most out of it.
