A better beginning
Next cohort October 27 · Cycle closed.
A closed 8-week path to stronger fundamentals. More structure. More consistency. More progress.

Why we’re changing
Consistency builds better wrestlers.
A closed eight-week cycle lets coaches build skills week by week—without repeatedly restarting the fundamentals.
- A consistent training group
- Skills that build each week
- Faster, more confident progress
The beginner curriculum
8 weeks of core fundamentals.
Athletes learn wrestling skills, safe training habits, and how to be a great practice partner.
- Stance + motion
- Takedown fundamentals
- Top position skills
- Bottom position skills
- Defense + safety
- Practice etiquette
Athletes advance when they demonstrate the skills, habits, and readiness required—not simply because eight weeks have passed.
Real feedback for parents
A clear picture of their progress.
At the end of each eight-week cycle, coaches evaluate every athlete.
- Skills assessment
- Coach evaluation
- Parent meeting + recommendation
Clear, individualized guidance parents can trust.
