Syllabus & Focus

Complete Grappling Mastery

From neutral feet-to-feet takedowns to technical ground submissions, develop fluid grappling that complements both striking and self-defense.

Folkstyle & Freestyle Wrestling

Develop relentless takedown offense and defense: double legs, high crotches, ankle picks, arm drags, and explosive mat returns learned through proper biomechanics.

Takedown Defense & Sprawls

Learn unbreakable hips, heavy sprawls, underhooks, head-in-the-hole escapes, and front headlock control that protect striking martial artists from being taken down.

Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu Ground Game

Position before submission. Learn guard retention, pressure passing, sweeps, side control dominance, back mounts, and high-percentage choke and joint lock finishes.

Endurance & Core Armor

Grappling builds unmatched isometric body power, neck and core stabilization, grip strength, and anaerobic endurance that standard gym workouts cannot replicate.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need prior wrestling or grappling experience?
Not at all. Our classes are structured with foundational technique breakdowns suitable for complete beginners, alongside progressive drilling and positional rounds for experienced grapplers.
What gear do I need for my first class?
Comfortable athletic clothing (rashguard or t-shirt and shorts/spats without zippers or pockets). Bring a water bottle and a mouthguard. If you have wrestling shoes or a BJJ gi, you are welcome to bring them.
Can existing Muay Thai or Karate students take grappling?
Yes! Many of our striking students cross-train in Wrestling and Jiu-Jitsu to develop complete combat readiness and takedown defense. Speak with Kru Dan or our front desk about adding grappling to your membership.
Is the training safe for working adults?
Safety and mutual respect are non-negotiable at Mayid Martial Arts. Training is strictly controlled, submissions are tapped early, and ego is checked at the door so you can train hard and return to work injury-free the next day.
