Kumite Free Sparring - Shitoryu




           This was done some years ago. The emphasis should be on front blocks and kicks and neutralise the attacker. Faced with a larger and bulkier opponent, I have to be more aggressive in taking down the fighter with a direct or indirect punch followed by a flurry of kicks. 

           See for yourself. Its all done in a controlled manner. Sports karate is about attaining points and not injuring or mortally wounding the opponent.
