Rafael Vasconcelos sparring with Matheus Menezes during competition class.
Sparring is essential in BJJ. It’s a unique training tool that will help you familiarize yourself with the specific positions and flow of real-world hand-to-hand combat. Of course, to the unprepared and the uneducated, sparring can come off as an overwhelming concept to some degree. But if you’re here watching this, you probably had the experience of sparring in BJJ. Sparring sessions are one of the most important parts of BJJ practice.
