Step 1
Get into a good stance. Keep your feet no closer together than shoulder-width for good balance. Keep your center of gravity low and palms facing each other.
-
Step 2
Step forward with one foot toward the opponent. Bend the knee of the forward leg. You go into the next step smoothly and make your movements glide into each other.
-
Step 3
Drop the forward knee to the ground, keeping the toe bent and heel up, as you grab the opponent's leg.
-
Step 4
Coordinate the other foot with the movement of the first. As you drop your knee to the ground, put your hand on the mat for balance. When you drop one knee to the floor, you should automatically bend the other at the knee in a right angle.
-
Step 5
Grab the opponent's ankle as you lunge forward. Push up into the opponent once you have a hold of his ankle. Use the toe of the foot and whole foot on the 90-degree bent leg to push up with strength and lift your opponent with your back.
-
Step 6
Move away as you drop the opponent onto the mat. Use the force of the push up to drop her when you use the high crouch.
-
Step 7
Attempt the high crouch on the other foot and practice going the opposite direction. Continue until the movement of this wrestling basic is smooth and has complete follow through.
