 Sparring Equipment

Students are required to own the relevant sparring equipment for their age and experience level. The graphics below depict what is required at each stage of training.

Below you’ll find links to our recommended brands/stores where you can order any equipment you need. You are welcome to shop elsewhere, but please check with your Instructor that the equipment is suitable before purchasing.

Warrior MA no longer provides sparring equipment through our store, only uniform. But we are happy to advise on sizing etc.
