Sparring is probably my worst subject in Taekwondo. I understand the theory, but I have a few issues.
Does anyone have advice on how I can work on my timing and technique? Maybe partner drills I can do, or just things I can mentally focus on while I'm sparring to improve my performance?
- Timing - I have trouble timing when I'm supposed to use my techniques, especially against people faster than me.
- Technique - Shadowboxing or kicking a BOB I have sharp technique. As soon as I start aiming for a hogu my technique gets incredibly sloppy. My back kicks are with the ball of my feet, my roundhouse kicks have a hard time sneaking past arms, etc.
