Our Story, Your Path
Transforming lives Through Wrestling
Wrestling is about much more than just what happens on the mat. It is a demanding sport that serves as a powerful teacher, equipping athletes with life skills that lead to success in school, career, and beyond. Every practice instills the core values of:
Discipline: Learning the value of hard work, consistency, and dedication to a long-term goal.
Mental Toughness: Developing the ability to overcome adversity, manage frustration, and perform under pressure.
Self-Reliance: Taking ownership of your preparation, learning that effort directly translates to results.

Experience
“I can say wrestling benefited my child hugely. I signed up for a camp and came back for the season. My son played basketball during the season and wrestling made him get in there and fight for the ball in basketball. Wrestling carried over into his first year of tackle right now and definitely gave him an edge. He loved having a sport that winning or losing depended only on him. I can’t say enough about coming out. He learned a defensive life skill, and tested himself.”

FAQs
Answer Of Some Wresteling Questions
1. What equipment does my child need to start?
Your child only needs basic athletic wear (T-shirt, shorts) for their first few practices. Once they commit, the essential gear includes wrestling shoes (required for safety and grip) and headgear (highly recommended to prevent ear injuries). We recommend wearing clean practice clothes every session.
2. Is wrestling safe for children?
Yes. Safety is our top priority. We start all beginners with fundamental movements and controlled drills. Our coaches teach proper technique, how to fall safely, and the importance of respecting their partners to minimize risk. Wrestling is a highly structured contact sport, which teaches body control and awareness.
3. What is the difference between the Beginner and Advanced classes?
Beginner Class: Focuses on foundational skills, basic rules, stance, motion, and core takedowns. It is designed for new wrestlers with little to no experience.
Advanced Class: Focuses on high-level technique, chain wrestling, competition strategy, and intensive live drilling. It is for experienced wrestlers (typically 2+ years) ready to compete.
4. When can my child start competing in tournaments?
The decision to compete is made by the coach and the parent together. For most beginners, we recommend a minimum of 4–6 weeks of consistent practice to ensure they are comfortable with the basics before entering a tournament. Our focus is preparation over premature competition.
5. What age group is your program designed for?
Our classes are generally designed for children aged 5 through 14. Please check the specific class descriptions for the exact age ranges offered for our Beginner and Advanced programs.
Can we try a practice before signing up?
Absolutely! We encourage all prospective wrestlers to take advantage of our Trial a Practice program. This allows your child to attend one (1) free class risk-free to experience the environment, meet the coaches, and decide if our club is the right fit. Contact us to schedule your trial session!
