Practicing techniques "too deadly for the ring"
Every kung fu style has techniques that could seriously injure your opponent, whether eye gouges, join manipulation, dislocation, dropping someone on their head, ball kicks, neck/throat/eye strikes, knee attacks, etc, etc.
How does your style practice these, with pressure, without actually hurting the other person?
This is a serious question. While I think it's lame excuse to say "we can't spar., we're too deadly", every traditional style has a range of techniques that are meant to maim. They're perhaps useful for self-defense even if they never see the light of day in a competition.
So how do you practice 'em?
