The Guru or Breton struggle arrived in Armorique during the successive waves of immigration of Bretons from Albion and mainly territories today named Wales and Cornwall.
Until the end of the Middle Ages, it was reserved for the martial elite and then this traditional struggle gradually democratized, animating the village festivals.
The guru is part of the great family of Celtic struggles such as the Back Hold (Scotland), the Canary Islands (Canary Islands) or the Hundstoaranggeln (Austria). The protagonists wear a thick shirt (Roched) and pants (bragoù). The goal is the LAMM, that is to put both shoulders of the opponent at the same time on the ground.
The Mod Kozh (old fashion) tournaments of the summer, traditionally take place on sawdust and the winner wins the Maout, a sheep.
The Skol Gouren Bro Naoned will alternately offer, every 30 minutes, initiations for children and adults as well as demonstrations while waiting to form a group.

Unknown in France, the gaelic football is the number one sport in Ireland, its home country. In recent years, the practice has grown here, especially in Brittany, which has more than a third of the country’s clubs. Like Irish clubs with Gaelic, Breton clubs are strongly committed to promoting the Breton language.
