Sports such as judo, jiujitsu, sambo, kurash, wrestling and submission wrestling are all grappling sports. Even the sports of mixed martial arts fall under the category of grappling. The sport of grappling has become recently famous through the introduction of events such as: The Ultimate Fighting Championships, Pride Fighting Championships, and a host of other mixed martial arts shows. However, the sport of grappling really came to the forefront through the Gracie Jiujitsu and Braziliain Jiujitsu Movement.
Although grappling has become very popular it has been around since the beginning of time. According to Professor Carrol’s article (i.e. the Journal of Sport History, Vol. 15, No. 2 (Summer, 1988) - "Wrestling in Ancient Nubia"), the sport of Grappling dates back to ancient Africa and Greece. Since the time that man has been grappling and fighting, grappling has become an art form. An art form that has been refined through the various Olympic grappling sports like: Greco Roman Wrestling, Freestyle Wrestling and Judo.
Grappling, in its pure art form, requires an extensive combination of practice and training. Distinguishing between grappling practice and training, yet integrating the two into a seamless system is why IHPcombat was formed.
