The sprained ankle wasn't from being kicked. They have a "light sparring" class which I haven't done yet. I've been kickboxing for about 9 months, we're either hitting a bag or doing partner work where one person is using mitts or paddles which the other person strikes in a predetermined combo. I got the mouth guard and the shin guards, hoping to try it out in the next couple of weeks.
The sprained ankle was from doing a switch kick in the air and falling on my ass. The ankle that was supporting my weight when I fell was the one that got sprained.
One of my goals in life is to never get kicked in the head. Maybe going to kickboxing isn't a good idea.
37 here, my knees are great. Sprained my ankle back for the very first time back in November in my kickboxing class and I'm starting to fear I've done permanent damage.
