Re: wrestling footwork-- in general mosts analysts still don't know anything useful about wrestling. Which is mind boggling considering wrestling is arguably the most successful art in MMA. But wrestling always gets overlooked. There's a BJJ school on damn near every street corner. But wrestlers are far more successful than BJJ grapplers in MMA. Where are all the wrestling schools?

Wrestling doesn't have schools, they have instead clubs, much like judo is mostly club run. Taught by mostly volunteers (so very, very cheap_. Wrestling academies are starting pop up tho, usually that's in big cities that may not have as many club options because of price of rent.
