Description

Gouren is a traditional form of Breton wrestling that originated in the northwest French region of Brittany. Although there are distinctions between the Cornish and Breton techniques, it is also referred to as "Breton wrestling" or "Cornish wrestling." In Gouren, competitors don kevrezeg jackets and brago� pants, which are specialized garments. The primary aim is to reduce the opponent to the ground through the utilization of a variety of techniques, such as sweeps, throws, and tripping. In circular ring competitions known as "sac'h," triumph is typically attained through the binding of the opposing person's shoulders to the ground. Demonstrating its extensive heritage and profound immersion in Breton culture, Gouren is frequently featured at cultural gatherings and festivals across Brittany. A tradition of celebration and practice among devotees in the region, it places an emphasis on strength, dexterity, and technique.
