For Competition Or Self Defense, Our Wrestling Classes Have You Covered
Folk style wrestling is the style of wrestling practiced at the high school and collegiate level. What many people don’t know is that wrestling, as we see it at the high school and college level, is actually a descendant of the world’s oldest and most basic form of martial arts. We run a wrestling club for competitive youth wrestlers, and also run wrestling classes for adults who are looking to learn the sport.
Our wrestling class is rooted in Folk style wrestling but also draws from Greco Roman and Freestyle influences to complement both our striking and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu classes. We teach the basics of wrestling to someone who has never wrestled before and also to those with advanced grappling experience. During our adult wrestling classes, special emphasis is placed on takedowns, takedown defense, positioning, and reversals for application in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and MMA training.
