Technical Superiority

Mental and Physical Strength

  At UP Wrestling we pay close attention to the finer details of wrestling technique which often make the difference in close matches. UP wrestlers are pushed to reach proficiency in the most basic wrestling positions and expand their skillset into new areas.

  

We supplement our training with film study of world class wrestlers in addition to implementing a sparring style which encourages exploration and refinement of essential techniques.

  

Our goal is to master the wrestling craft resulting in engaged, confident, adaptable athletes.

Mental and Physical Strength

 Strength of mind and body is essential to high level wrestling.

 

With over ten years experience studying and working professionally in the fields of exercise science and human performance, our staff is ready to equip wrestlers with the tools and techniques necessary for over powering and outlasting their opponents.

 

Training with Ultimate Praxis allows wrestlers to earn the satisfaction of strength gains and competence on and off the mat. 

Love of the Game

Mental and Physical Strength

Love of the Game

 Wrestling can be as grueling as it is rewarding. In order to reach our goals, much discipline, effort, and consistency is required. It is difficult for anyone to maintain such high levels of commitment if they do not feel an inherent appreciation for the process.

  

UP Wrestling Club cultivates an environment which encourages learning and enhancing skills in an enjoyable fashion. Realizing one’s hidden potential is about more than wins and losses; it is about showing up every day as a student of the sport interested in learning and growing as much as the thrill of competition. UP wrestlers learn to embrace the hard work necessary to improve.
