2-Step Sparring

IBO MATSOGI (Two Step Sparring)

Definition of Sparring -

Sparring is the phyisical application of attack and defense techniques gained from patterns and fundamental exercises, used against actual moving opponent or opponents under various situations.

It is therefore not only indispensable to promote the fighting spirit and courage, to train the eyes to read the opponents tatic as well as maneuvers, to forge, toughen or develop the attacking and blocking tools, to test his/her own skills and ability to learn other movements hardly to be gained in patterns and fundamental exercises.

TWO STEP SPARRING

The main purpose of this sparring is to acquire a mixed technique of hand and foot parts, the attacker, therefore, must use both the hand and the foot alternately.

It is, however entirely optional whether the attacker uses the hand or the foot first. As in the case of THREE STEP SPARRING there are two methods of practice.

1) The attack is only executed while stepping forward and the defense while stepping backward.

2) Both the attack and the defense are executed while stepping either forward or backward.
