9/6 (Sparing realization)

Today was north charlottes sparring day. Class was more fast past paced since class had to be shortened, we did some light drills but mainly sparring. Sparring some people today I realized that EVERYONE and I mean really everyone spars differently. Some people are shorter so they will just blitz you, some people are taller so they abuse range, etc, etc. But not only do peoples body's impact how they spar, personalities do as well. I think next week instead of blocking and kicking looking for an opening on the persons body's. Im going to work adapting my sparring into a more memorize my opponent fighting style. So I dont get his as often.
