Indian Wrestling

Ever since I spent time in India (back in the 70's) I have had a real interest in Indian martial art and physical culture. I just ran across these two clips of Indian wrestling and thought they might be interesting for everyone.

Also, here are some clips of kalaripayattu, a very interesting South Indian martial art.

I studied Indian martial arts for about 3 weeks, and even that much was hard to get. I don't think the Indian styles are as over-glamorized as say Japanese or Chinese arts are... Thanks for sharing those links.
