GRAPPLING
Grappling refers to the techniques, maneuvers, and counters applied against an opponent in order to gain a physical advantage.
Grappling
Grappling is a combat sport that doesn’t include neither striking nor kicking. Its techniques are practiced in various martial arts and can be broadly divided into the following categories: clinch fighting, takedowns and throws, submission holds, pin/control techniques, sweeps, reversals, turnovers, and escapes.
Therefore, grappling refers to the techniques, maneuvers, and counters applied against an opponent in order to gain a physical advantage; for example, escaping away from the opponent or submitting him/her.
