Introduction
I have been practicing martial arts and boxing for about 15 years, and am also the Organizer of the New York Martial Arts and Boxing Meetup Group (180 members) and the New York Fight Club Meetup Group (44 members) Please join them too!
Are you interested in sparring, and are you experienced in sparring or a beginner? IMPORTANT to list your height/weight.

Yes experienced in sparring and like to work with sparring partners with any level of experience-- beginners OK. I am 5ft7 145lbs.

What type of sparring do you enjoy? Be as specific as you can-- for example , prefer full contact striking to the body , light contact striking to the head.

I prefer full contact striking to the body , and no striking to the head. I have 16oz Tufwear boxing gloves for myself and sparring partners, and space available at the Y to spar.

Are you a fan and/or a martial artist? If a martial artist, please indicate if you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced and what style(s) you practice.

Both fan and martial artist. Advanced, but OK sparring with any level. I have been practicing Jeet Kune Do , the original mixed martial art, developed by Bruce Lee, with particular emphasis on JKD trapboxing. Jerry Beasley is a major figure also.
