Every way to run a martial arts event
Colorado amateur martial arts events are mostly school-hosted tournaments in gyms and event halls year round, with kids and adults competing by age, belt and weight.
Point Sparring
Competitors spar in a ring, and the referee stops action after each clean hit to award points. The first to a point total or the leader at time wins.
Forms / Kata
Competitors perform a set pattern of techniques alone in front of judges. Judges score power, focus and accuracy, and the highest score wins.
Weapons Forms
Like forms, but performed with a traditional weapon such as a bo staff or sai. Judges score control, technique and presentation.
Continuous Sparring
Competitors spar without stopping after each hit for a timed round. Judges score clean techniques or pick a winner for the round.
Board Breaking
Competitors break wooden or plastic boards with strikes in a planned routine. Judges score difficulty, power and success on each break.
Kickboxing / Muay Thai
Fighters wearing gloves and protective gear box and kick in timed rounds. Judges score rounds, or a referee stops the bout.
Amateur MMA Bout
Two fighters matched by weight and experience fight short rounds with striking and grappling under amateur safety rules, with a referee and judges.
Grappling Division
Competitors try to control or submit each other without strikes. Matches are timed and won by submission or by points for positions.
Clinic, camp or lessons
An instructor teaches techniques, drills and partner work by belt level, often a guest seminar or intro class.
Social or open play
An open mat session where people from different schools drill and spar lightly together without scoring.
