THREE STEP SPARRING
(Sambo Matsogi)

[tkd]


For three step, the attacker begins in walking stance outer forearm low block, with the defender in parallel ready stance. The attacker steps forward three times in walking stance performing a middle obverse punch; the defender steps backwards three time performing the same block each time, and after the third step and block performs a counter attack.

Usually the instructor will indicate which blocks and counter attacks they want the defender to use; however to get you started there are some variations listed below:
