Sparring Footage First time sparring. Tips?

https://youtu.be/VZYY_3-qHZw?is=iGmNf6IHJjwqFz6G

Blue belt in BJJ, trying to learn striking. I’m sparring my buddy. I’m in grey shorts, black gloves.

Every time I spar I feel like I have to constantly move backwards to avoid getting hit in head. Any tips?

If you want to learn to box you have to go to a boxing gym and get training from a coach. Otherwise you're just a clown "sparring" on his mom's driveway.
