Default Eclectic Sparring Suggestions...

Dear All,

As a deliniation from a previous thread ("Full Contact") I wish to speak of a few different types of sparring utilized in our dojang.

General sparring requirements (for grading) consist of 3-Step, 1-Step, Model Sparring, Non-Contact, and moderate contact sparring.

Different individuals learn martial arts for different reasons as so instructors must train for different reasons. Our dojang is self defense and combat oriented. That being said, the following are a few eclectic sparring types utilized in my dojang!

1. Hands only sparring

2. Feet only sparring (hands may be used to pary and block)

3. Takedown Game (two opponents simply wrestle until one attains a complete takedown)

4. Open Technique wrestling (no striking...two opponents wrestle for position with the intention of making the opponent submit)

5. Open Technique Sparring (this allows for the broadest utilization of techniques. Strikes are preferable, however the use of defensive throws and consequent ground striking and joint locks are allowed. On the ground, small joint manipulation is allowed however the utmost in care and control is required

6. 2 on 1 sparring is also utilized at the higher colored belt ranks

All sparring (including that generally used for grading) allows checking kicks, leg kicking, quick grabs, and defensive takedowns. Contact is allowed to any part of the body (with the acception of the eyes, joints, and groin).

Padding is utilized at individual discretion. Commonly used items are Hogu, Mouth Peice, Shin & Instep Guards, and Groin Protector. Non and Light contact sparring are taught with no protective gear. Full contact is done with and without protective equipment. Generally, we train 3-5 times a week at 3 hours per session. We train in cycles and do not spar daily. However there comes periods of time in which we will spar for an entire week, and during these periods individuals may opt to wear gear appropriate to there sore spots!

TAEKWON!

Do any of your sparring rules allow for elbows and knees?
And how do you determine when a match is finished?
Are there any techniques that are specifically disallowed in any of these rule sets?

yes elbows and knees are allowed. Either the instructor calls the match or it ends and immediately restarts when there is a logical end.

Right off the top of my head only throws are watched closely due to not having a matted floor in the sparring area.

Default Knees and Elbows...

Wispers,

I didnt think to mention knees and elbows...they are standard procedure even in "formal" sparring.
