Wrestling

Wrestling is a match between two unarmed persons. Even before, ancient Greeks are onto wrestling matches. Also, wresting was one of the festivals highlights during Middle Ages. This means, different wrestling styles have their own history. Today, there are five International wrestling disciplines recognized worldwide which are: Greco-Roman wrestling, Free style wrestling, grappling, Beach wrestling and Sambo. These five are acknowledged by the International Federation of Associated Wrestling Styles.

Grappling is a wrestling style that plays an important role in the practice of mixed martial arts. It is also a self-defense technique.

Beach style wrestling is composed of two weight categories: light and heavy. This time the wrestlers wear swimsuit apart from the usual athletic shorts.
