Five Fingers of Death (Kung Fu)

So, at the latest session of kung fu in da park, Jeremy showed great progress while sparring and touching around. To explain the difference:


'touching around'
-light-to-medium contact simulation of street fighting
-can be used to: apply techniques or emphasize a point from the lesson
-may be performed at slow or half speed
-involves no equipment (free or empty hand)
-great for warming up or for beginners

'sparring'
-light-to-full contact simulation of street fighting
-incorporates everything learned in martial arts training 
-performed at half-to-full speed (whatever two practitioners are comfortable with)
-equipment: gloves, head gear, and shin guards (optional).
-great approximation of real-life fighting
