What is Submission Wrestling and Grappling?
The popularity of Submission Wrestling and Grappling in the US has been on the rise since the early 1990s, following successes in the Ultimate Fighting Championships. This is true of the Virginia, Maryland and Washington areas, as it is nationwide. But what exactly is it? And what is all the fuss about? Put simply, Submission Wrestling, or Grappling is the combination of various martial art styles and techniques. Drawing inspiration from disciplines including Jiu-Jitsu, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Olympic Wrestling and Judo, amongst others it is widely respected as being the ultimate in Mixed Martial Arts, or MMA to give it snappier moniker. When starting to train it will soon become clear there is much more to take from this captivating sport than garnering the skills to fight successfully on a mat or in the ring. You will be taught how to focus, how to reign in your feelings and emotions and to develop mentally. Physical benefits are also of course very evident as a program runs its course.
