I'm relatively new to Kung Fu. I've only been taking classes for about 6 months now and recently have been learning Xiao Hong Quan forms. My Sifu has been teaching how each separate form applies to a real life situation, and we imitate each form separately with the Sifu and other students...however I haven't done any sparring yet in the 6 months I've been there. Is this typical? Even though I feel like I'm executing the forms decently I still question how well I could pull them off when sparring or in an actual fight. Am I too anxious or is it typical to spar only at more advanced levels?
