A structured youth wrestling program for ages 5–12, led by Tyler McKay, head wrestling coach at Ramona High School. Built to develop strong fundamentals in takedowns, control, and positioning, with a clear pathway into high school wrestling.

Age-Based Training

Foundation

Ages 5–8

Classes build confidence while developing the fundamentals needed for long-term progress.

Development

Ages 9–12

Students advance into more technical wrestling, including takedowns, defense, and control. Training becomes more structured with increased detail, conditioning, and live drilling.

At this level, students build the timing, awareness, and work ethic needed for higher-level wrestling.

Coaching & Development Path

The program is led by Tyler McKay, head wrestling coach at Ramona High School, creating a direct connection between youth training and high school wrestling.

Through this structure, students are developed from an early age with a clear path into the high school program, helping build strong athletes and opening opportunities to continue wrestling at the next level.

Wrestling for Jiu-Jitsu and Grappling

Wrestling develops the ability to control the standing position, execute takedowns, and dictate where the match takes place.

This strengthens Jiu-Jitsu training by building confidence in takedowns and control, creating more complete grapplers with a strong foundation.

Built for the Future

Wrestling builds strength, conditioning, discipline, and mental toughness. It prepares students for success in Jiu-Jitsu, mixed martial arts, and real-world self-defense.

Students learn how to take an opponent down, control the situation, or prevent the fight from going to the ground using proven wrestling fundamentals.

A strong wrestling foundation creates better athletes, stronger competitors, and more confident kids.
