Integrated Grappling Arts - IGW



Our grappling system takes techniques, tactics and training methods from the following systems:


Judo
Jujutsu

Freestyle Wrestling
Greco-Roman
Russian Sombo

Filipino Dumog

Though our main aim in training is not to go to the ground in a fight, we acknowledge the need to now how to grapple if the fight should go there.



Vertical grappling:
We start with blow before throw, using our HKE system of Head, Knees and Elbows to set up the throw, backed up with "dirty" methods including eye gouging, shoulder smash, forearm shiver and Kino Mutai biting.

Groundgrappling:
We work combat submission wrestling based on the concept of TNS - Tap, Nap or Snap.

Groundfighting:
We add back in HKE and all the "dirty" moves.

Vale Tudo:
Kickboxing with grappling added.

Kali:
Our stick and knife fights also go to the ground.
For stick we use the deadly fang choke as well as several ground versions of our stick lox.
