    Not until I had the basics down, no point in sparring early unless you know the fundamentals.

    2 months. Only because I came everyday. Coach Jesse usually doesn't let anyone spar without a passbook

    If a kid walks into the gym, who is a natural athlete, and if he trains seriously he can be ready to spar in about 6 weeks
