1 Step Sparring
To be promoted to your next grade, you are required to perform 1-Step Sparring. You may also to be asked to perform any 3 step, Semi-Free or 2 step sparring techniques.
Free Sparring
Expect to have to do free sparring on your grading. At this level you should be showing carefully controlled techniques, demonstrating the ability
to spot openings or weaknesses in your opponents guard, and exploit these through your attack techniques. In addition you should be guarding, countering
and blocking and attacks with your defence and dummy techniques.
Remember that on your grading, you shold be showing off both yours and your opponents skills, you would loose marks for being overly aggressive against
an opponent who might not be as strong as you in a free-sparring arena
