What is controlled contact sparring?
Controlled contact sparring is the most realistic safe way to train skills. In these drills you employ controlled punches, kicks and grappling techniques on a partner, who is attempting to land the same techniques on you. Controlled striking targets include body, leg and head. Realize, the ability to employ a technique without hurting your partner is the cornerstone of developing true martial art skills. Is controlled contact sparring the same as full contact sparring, or boxing. Absolutely not. In full contact or boxing you don’t hold back. Each blow uses full power on your opponent. In controlled contact you use the same technique as boxing or kickboxing but you limit your power to insure safety.
