Gold Medal Sparring

Winning after lots and lots of Losses

August 10, 2020

I used to really really hate sparring. I was afraid of being hurt and I didn't want to hurt others. At tournaments, I would always be the first person out and be last place. But when I got my red belt, I decided to conquer my fear. I went to sparring class every week even though the sparring instructor hated me. I kept fighting people that were taller and faster than me, which meant that I was pretty much losing everytime. But my experience and strategies kept improving, and suddenly I went from losing every sngle match to winning every single match.
