It is a discipline that was born as a Martial Art more than 3,500 years ago in the Republic of Uzbekistan and is considered the Mother of all Martial Arts. Today it is a world-class sport with the International Kurash Association (IKA) as its governing entity. Kurash is a noble sport with a minimum risk of injury during practices, very accepted for children, young people and adults as well as the elderly. It is very present with wide community expansion.
Since when is Kurash practiced in the Dominican Republic?
Discipline began its practice in the Dominican Republic in 1999 and having held several Pan American Championships in the country and a Junior World Championship in 2006. I am currently president of the Pan American Kurash Union (UPK) and vice president of the International Kurash Association (IKA)
