At STMA we have 4 main kinds of sparring:
Kali - kickboxing - unarmed - Vale Tudo
each of these has 4 phases to it.
Kali:
double stix
single stick
stick and knife
knife and hand
Kickboxing:
savate
thai
kickboxing
boxing
unarmed:
karate
chi sao
randori
ground TNS
VT:
this is a mix of striking and grappling
- in the unarmed phase this blends kb and grappling with strikes on the ground
- the the armed phase this allows a stick fight to go to ground
so the 4 phases are:
kb
groundfight
stick fight
stick ground
each of these sparring phases has drills which can be isolated
eg sinawalli with double stix
thai pads for thai
etc
