If you're after sparring in the boxing sense where you have 2 guys fighting, Jitsu is not for you. Jitsu as with most Japanese arts are self defence based. This is where u have an Uke (person attacking) and Tori (person defending). Together they learn the essence of each given technique in a safe, controlled manner.

Sparring consisting of the standard jiu-jitsu fighting system? Do you mean one person designated as an attacker, one as a defender, attacker throws punch, defender throws them to ground and then puts on a ground hold?
Because that's not sparring

@quiteawful The sparring usually consists of the standard Jiu-Jitsu fighting system, so strikes followed by throws followed by groundwork. But sometimes we emphasize one of the three. Throws and groundwork are usually practiced randori-style indeed.
I have had some Judo classes, but I prefer Jiu-Jitsu, since you get to practice both Judo and Karate techniques and additional locks and chokes.

@RsGhost1 ok strikes in the air is pretty pointless
what are the sparring sessions like?
do you guys still do throws dealing from a "conventional snap punch"/"street punch" or do you practice them like randori style?
have you ever tried judo or BJJ?

@quiteawful We practice strikes in the air, with pads and in sparring sessions.

@RsGhost1 how do you mean practice strikes - padwork or punching the air

@quiteawful I've been doing it for a while now and we practice plenty of strikes, I guess it depends on the dojo.
