Using the techniques from your given system, how many of your students actually use them when they spar or fight?
Sparring:
Sport style - heavy with rules, with no or light contact,
Traditional style - limited rules, light or med. contact.
Fighting:
Sports type - heavy with rules, med. or heavy contact,
to the ground is optional,
Street type - limited rules, med. or heavy contact,
to the ground.
There is a reason that I have posted this question is this, when I have visit other schools I have noticed that most of the students have the ability, according to their level, do perform their techniques very well. When it comes to sparring time though I have noticed that most of the schools students do not use fighting techniques that even look simular to their own styles techniques. The lower levels spar much like the tournament fighters do. The upper ranks spar the same way but faster and cleaner.
No finger pointing by me here, I am just curious about what is happening out there in cyber land.
As for my school,
Kyu Ranks:
They use the traditional sparring method with light contact,
Dan ranks:
They do both versions listed under the Fighting. This will depend on what I am covering that week in class.
Next someone.
