Ippon Kumite
After a student has a fair knowledge of the basics and knows how to put combinations
together through kata the student then learns the one step sparring techniques
(ippon kumite). This is done empty handed as well as with weapons later on. This
utilizes one student attacking while one student defends. This allows the student
to feel and see how effective or ineffective their block and counter techniques are.
Eventually the student will move onto Kumite both without contact (the punch or kick
is stopped inches from its target) or with contact (the strikes and kicks make contact
on the opponents body utilizing protective gear). Full contact is not something that
is mandatory but it can be a good tool for the student to feel what a real fight is like.
Within this system there are also certain Ippon Kumite or One Step Fighting Techniques
that the student is required to learn. Below lists the Techniques required:
All Ippon Kumite below are done while stepping. Blocking side is always stepping back.
