WRESTLING ASSOCIATION OF THE PHILIPPINES CAVITE / JMC WRESTLING TEAM

WRESTLING

Greco-Roman wrestling is a style of amateur wrestling that is practiced throughout the world. Along with freestyle, it is one of the two styles of wrestling contested in the Olympic games.
Colloquially referred to simply as Greco, this style of wrestling forbids attacks below the waist. As a result, throws are encouraged as the Greco-Roman wrestler cannot avoid being thrown by simply hooking or grabbing his opponent's leg. Otherwise, the sport is similar to freestyle.
Arm drags, bearhugs, and headlocks found in freestyle have greater prominence in Greco-Roman. Throws especially known as a suplex are used, in which the offensive wrestler lifts his opponent in a high arch while falling backward on his own neck to a bridge in order to bring his opponent's shoulders down to the mat. Even on the mat, a Greco-Roman wrestler must still find several ways to turn his opponent's shoulders to the mat for a fall without legs, including (but not limited to) techniques known as the bodylock and the gut-wrench.[1]
According to the International Federation of Associated Wrestling Styles (FILA), Greco-Roman wrestling is one of the six main forms of amateur competitive wrestling practiced internationally today. The other five forms are freestyle wrestling, grappling (also called submission wrestling), beach wrestling, pankration athlima and alysh.

JMC TAEKWONDO TEAM

TAEKWONDO

Breaking it down, Tae means to destroy with the feet; Kwon means to strike or smash with the hand; and Do means "path", "way" or "method". Therefore Taekwondo is often translated as meaning "the way of the feet and fist". Another common translation is “the art of smashing with the hands and feet”.

As with many other traditional martial arts, taekwondo is a combination of self-defence, sport, exercise, philosophy and (more recently) moral guidance.

As one can assume from the name there is a large emphasis on using kicks. In sparring, turning, front, reverse turning and side kicks are most often used; advanced kicks include jump, spin, sliding, and skip kicks, often in combination.

JMC JUDO NEWAZA / JUIJITSU TEAM

JUDO

Judo Newaza means Judo grappling, Judo developed from the principles of jujitsu, a weaponless system of self-defense. which was developed by Buddhist monks over a period of 2,000 years. Jigoro Kano, a Japanese jujitsu expert, created judo in 1882. By dropping some of the more dangerous moves, he created a sport which depends for success upon the skill of using an opponent's own weight and strength against him.

A Japanese martial art founded in the 19th century. A derivative of Jiu-jitsu, both share some of the same history and techniques, though Judo has been refined as more of a sport.

MUAY ASSOCIATION OF THE PHILIPPINES CAVITE

MUAY THAI

is a form of hard martial art practiced in large parts of the world, including Thailand and other Southeast Asian countries. The art is similar to others in Southeast Asia such as: pradal serey in Cambodia, lethwei in Myanmar, tomoi in Malaysia, and Lao boxing in Laos. Muay Thai has a long history in Thailand and is the country's national sport. Traditional Muay Thai practiced today varies significantly from the ancient art muay boran and uses kicks and punches in a ring with gloves similar to those used in Western boxing.Muay Thai is referred to as "The Art of Eight Limbs", as the hands, shins, elbows, and knees are all used extensively in this art. A practitioner of Muay Thai ("nak muay") thus has the ability to execute strikes using eight "points of contact," as opposed to "two points" (fists) in Western boxing and "four points" (fists, feet) used in the primarily sport-oriented forms of martial arts.
