I take Urufu-Ryu (its an electic style that combines many types of
martial-arts together) anyhow, I have done and had the same thing done to
me, but once I was sparing with a friend of mine and he pulled a neat
little trick on me since he couldn't seem to get past me defence, first
he went down low and brung his foot up slightly kinda like he is getting
ready to do a side kick then he brung it back down and stood on my foot
but with most of his weigh on his back leg so he was leaning a bit away
from me then with my feet disabled he put all his weight fully entraping
my legs from escap did and uper block so I couldnt attack from above and
went for my gut. Of cource he did this all fairly fast so I didnt have
much time for react exept for, "Oh my foots stuck," This dosen't work
more then once, well atleast it didnt work on me more then once, but it
might be fun to do next time you spar.

Anyone ells got any sparing tips, cuz I'd like to hear anything you
people got!
