Adreine Sparring

When you begin sparring in martial arts training, often one of the first obstacles to overcome is the fear of it. Even with protective padding gear on, it feels uncomfortable to get hit at first. Some people (like me) just aren't naturally agressive, and it takes time to get used to the idea of hitting someone else.

But practice makes you better at anything. Sparring is no different. The more I do it, the more I like it. It's terrific exercise and helps increase your coordination and endurance.

Adreine seems to have experienced no fear since she began sparring. She comes swinging right out the gate, and never seems to get tired. The video below shows her demonstrating her tenacity perfectly. She is the one in pink.

The other girl's objective was to catch an opening to grasp Adreine and throw her down to the mat. It takes her a few moments, but she succeeds.
