Yoshi and David Showing Proper Bogu Kumite Practice

Training needs not to be anywhere near as vigorous as actual competition. Training TOO hard can be detrimental to your health and progress in learning. It should be an experience that is non-threatening and can be fun if done with a partner who is of the same mindset. David and Yoshi, even though the day is blistering hot, are having a good time improving their skills. I will show some videos of students training, and then I have one of what Tournament Championship matches at the Gold (Expert) level are like and another of the lower levels' competition. Do not think Bogu Kumite is how you would defend yourself against asocial violence. Those events are not competitions and require a totally different form of violent responses that result in death, crippling, or maiming of the opponent. Yoshi and David seem to have gotten carried away a bit right before the Second round but they calmed down and took a short break before resuming.
