SAMBO MATSOGI (Three 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.
THREE STEP SPARRING
This is the initial basic sparring exercise usually from the 9th grade to the sixth grade (at Blackburn Taekwon-Do, we practice from white belt - 10th grade and continue to practice all throughout out training).
This is an exercise for familiarization of correct attack and defense techniques using mainly the hand parts against the middle and high sections and the foot parts against the low section while stepping forward and backward. There are two methods of practice: one way & two way
The Following Principles should be observed to perform a logical attack and defense movement with correct stance and posture:
1) The exercise should be conducted against an attacker who is the same height as the defender.
2) If the height is not the same, the stance must be adjusted. (e.g. the taller takes an L-Stance while the shorter takes a walking stance)
3) Exercise must be conducted alone if the height differs considerably.
