Sparring Club is a vehicle to help formally trained martial artists connect for organized sparring sessions. Outside of street fighting (not recommended) or organized fights, there is a lack of opportunities for martial artists to test and refine skills outside of your home gym or school. Sparring Club was created to fill that void. While we welcome mixed martial artists, we are especially concerned with promoting and preserving the integrity of traditional martial arts systems. Our goal is to promote integrity, practicality, and solidarity throughout the global martial arts community.
Local Sparring Clubs are the core of our network. When managed properly, local clubs offer the ideal context for a productive sparring session where members collectively maintain a respectful and active environment. No matter where you are in the world, there are certain to be other sincere martial artists nearby who would welcome the opportunity to test and refine their skills.
