FS allows amateur competitors to showcase their versatile skills through utilizing all three FS phases—striking, takedowns, and submissions—which will be reviewed in-depth.

By the end of the seminar, instructors and athletes will understand how to safely and effectively practice FS's free sparring back at their own clubs and prepare for official competitions.

Instructors and athletes from BJJ, Jpn-JJ, Judo, Karate, Taekwondo, Wrestling and other MMA clubs are all welcome.
