Beginner’s Corner

If you’re new to the sport of Wrestling, you’re in for a treat.  Wrestling has a long history in Western civilization, dating back to the days of ancient Greece.  Wrestling teaches self-discipline and builds self-confidence while building up your strength, heart and endurance.

In the below videos, we focus on the fundamentals and basic strategies of how to win a wrestling match.  I have narrowed down our “basic repertoire” to a couple of essentials.

These moves will be easy to learn for newer and younger wrestlers. Eventually you may decide you want to learn more advanced moves, but for now we’ll stick to the bare basics.

IMPORTANT THINGS TO REMEMBER

• Stay in your stance
• Make your drilling as realistic as possible
• Shut up… Just get in the zone and let the time pass. Seriously, shut up. A champion doesn’t talk, he drills techniques until he hates them, and then he drills them more.
• You are always drilling, no matter whose turn it is. “I must work defense while my partner works his offense, this way he is preparing for realistic responses and I am also getting quicker with my defenses.”
• Make it realistic
