Lines Of Takedown Defense: Basic Wrestling Moves and Technique For Beginners

Tutorial Showing The Four Lines Of Take Down Defense For Beginners. The four lines of defense are your takedown defense in wrestling. Demonstration is in steps. Subscribe for more wrestling technique videos, many more coming soon!

Simple demonstration of the four lines of defense in folkstyle and freestyle wrestling: 1. head, 2. hands, 3. forearms, 4. hips. This will all come from having a good wrestling stance and being in proper position.

Your head level must match his, or your opponent is past one line of defense. Many people only use their sprawl when defending a takedown from neutral. You have three lines of defense to defend their shot before you have to sprawl.

This video is good for people who are new to wrestling and looking for instruction, for people just beginning or learning wrestling, or for anyone who wants to improve their wrestling basics or fundamentals.

Recently, I started a wrestling-based charity. It is called “Wrestling Shoes For you” and is aimed at donating wrestling gear (shoes, headgears, kneepads, etc.) to underprivileged youth. If you could stop my Facebook page and give it a like/possibly donate any old gear you have laying around, it will help a great cause.
