Q2 - Can I spar? Or do I have to spar?
A2 - The short answer for both is no. Can I spar is the single most commonly asked question when anyone comes to the gym on day 1, on day 1 of training for the army do they allow you to shoot a gun? We do not allow anyone to come in to the gym and spar on day 1 regardless of the 12 white collar fights you had previously, however its something that you can build up to and can be part of your goals to achieve with us. Do you have to spar then, No not at all.
