Our training center is built around a year-round development model. We don’t just coach for a season, we train athletes for long-term growth and peak performance. Our four training cycles are designed to meet wrestlers where they are in the competitive year, helping them consistently grow.

Private Lessons
Private lessons offer personalized guidance, fostering rapid progress and confidence on the mat. Working 1-on-1 or in a small group setting of 2-4 athletes, our coaches breakdown critical techniques and strategies, with individualized attention.

🎥 Take a Look Inside a Private Wrestling Lesson
In this video, I’m working with an athlete to drill critical positions that often decide the outcome of a match. By focusing on these key scenarios, we’re building the skills and confidence needed to excel when it matters most.
Private lessons cover all areas of wrestling, neutral, top, bottom, and transitions, to ensure consistent growth and well-rounded development. With a committed mindset and hard work, improvement becomes inevitable.
