"This article shall group Joachim Meyer’s Ringen into collections of similar throws. Hopefully this will better aid the modern student in learning Meyer’s Ringen. All of the throws have been rewritten into a modern step-by-step method from Dr. Forgeng’s translation along with some interpretation of my own.
In Joachim Meyer’s Ringen section we find an amalgamation of several different techniques. In the Ringen section Meyer gives us seventeen different techniques. These techniques appear to be more of a haphazard collection of throws, holds, and general advice. However, while they are scattered over the various plays, these throws can be grouped together into a coherent pattern. It cannot be claimed that this is a complete method of wrestling such as seen in Fabian von Auerswald, or Jud Ott, but it also should not be dismissed as simply a hodgepodge work of grappling techniques."
