Sparring is with 16oz gloves, headguards and rib protectors – We match you with someone a similar level and size; The referee’s are proactive looking after your safety. ( Typically punching and kicking is allowed to head, body and legs – and in some instances by prior consent Sanda style takedowns are allowed on a suitable matted floor area )

Our goal is simply to give developing martial artists an opportunity to gain valuable sparring experience and share knowledge. Ideal preparation for national gradings, full contact freestyle kickboxing / Thai boxing / Sanda / Sanshou / MMA competitions.
Judges comprise of instructors from any style present on the day. All fighters will have to help act as ‘corner-men/women’ for others fighters, (typically shadowing experienced corner-men). Sparring is done in a friendly open atmosphere for students of martial arts.
In just 3 years, graduates of the league are picking up National Titles in BCCMA sanctioned competitions and events.
