Fist Step forward
Okay,

Now, I am an australian martial artist who has trained in various full contact styles (kyokushin, freestyle, boxing, kickboxing and tae kwon do).
I have recently moved and haven't found a school that really appeals to my style of training.

So what i am looking for is some game people to step forward and have some hard sparring with me. I dont care what rules but prefer no gloves.

Is anyone in Sydney AUS willing to give it a crack?

Good for anyone who has trained and wants to test themselves in a safe environment with no real aggression.

I've never fought a Kung fu practitioner before and i would love to give that a go.

Lets do this

(mods, if wrong section please move)

You really want to box without gloves? That's not safe unless you're not really throwing punches, in which case what's the point?

How much do you weigh and what is your height? I'll spar you, but with gloves and headgear the way sparring was intended to be.

I'm not in Australia, but I'm always down for some sparring. I enjoy it. I'm going to wear gloves and atleast a mouthguard since this is sparring and not an altercation. Make sense?

I'm always up for some good sparring but I don't live in Australia, sorry. If ever in Lexington, Kentucky USA look me up and we'll get it on (sparring that is).

Yeah, if you have a huge strength/size/experience advantage - I am definitely going to want to wear the head gear - but I'm game otherwise.

sorry guys, i should have been more particular.
I'm open for any rule recommendations maybe, if no gloves, then no closed fist strikes to the head?
or light gloves with strikes to the face, of course mouth guard and cup are a given
