Scientific Wrestling and Embodied Strength are two sites that I recommend becoming familiar with. Scientific Wrestling is the home base for all your Catch Wrestling needs under Jake Shannon and Billy Robinson, while Embodied Strength is run by Sam Kressin a practitioner in the Martial Arts and Acupuncture and Eastern medicine. Billy Robinson is the Head Coach for Scientific Wrestling. He is a living breathing vault of knowledge for all Catch Wrestlers and Grapplers in general. He has trained a number of Catch Wrestlers who have gone on to shock the world, most notable would be Kazushi Sakuraba. Jake Shannon is an Assistant Coach under Billy. Jake has had many opportunities to learn from a number of the Great Catch Wrestlers, such as Karl Gotch and Billy Robinson. Sam Kressin is also an Assistant Coach under Billy Robinson. He is well versed in Jiu Jitsu as well as Catch Wrestling. Sam is an excellent grappler and training partner. |
