The year of Cornwall 🙌

What a great event this is at Festival Interceltique de Lorient

Our team always enjoy their time being host by Fédération de Gouren.

This year being the year of Cornwall will make it even more special Festival Interceltique Lorient - Kernow / Cornwall.

Gouren is a great example of revival of a folk wrestling style. With very close technical similarities to Cornish style wrestling, learning one is like learning the other. The success of Gouren’s resurgence in Brittany serves as inspiration to us in the Westcountry! Keep up the great work Fédération de Gouren!
