Wrestling Guru - India

April 2007
While other 70 year olds are enjoying their retirement, Ram Dhan runs one of the most respected wrestling schools in India. His strict methods are aimed at turning pupils into great men.

Every day, Ram wakes his young pupils at 4 am to go for a morning run. "Sometimes I have to hit them once or twice because they're lazy", he explains. Boys aren't allowed to eat meat, watch movies, drink alcohol or get married. But pupils feel privileged to be taught by him. "My guru is God-Like to us. He's the only one who can take us to great heights."

India is often associated with beggars and fakirs. Not many in the West especially the United Stats, know that its people rank amogst the most athletic and warlike in the World. In India, wrestling is as old as written history. Indian wrestlers are huge men almost as big as the sumo giants of Japan. However, no man can become champion through brute force alone. There are a thousand "holds" in Indian wrestling, and the most skillful grapplers like Great Gama reign supreme.
