Wrestling Dojo: Pursuing Victory with Honor and Integrity

Wrestlers Training at the Wrestling Dojo JAN 2013
     The Wrestling Dojo of EDH Grappling hosted it's second group of wrestlers from 2013 this week. These middle school wrestlers are all competitive wrestlers looking to make some big improvements as they get deep and deeper into the heat of the season. The 1 hour session focused mostly on mat wrestling, using shoulder pressure, and getting the ultimate goal in wrestling, the pin. While coach Eliot Kelly instructed the larger group, coach Beau Weiner had instructed a smaller group rotating every 10 minutes. This allowed for the wrestlers to receive some individualized attention while training in a large group setting.
     In addition to the technical instruction by both coaches, the session emphasized the importance of respect. Respect for themselves, their training partners, coaches, and extending that respect off the mat as well. Respect to teacher's, parent's, family, and women. Although the Wrestling Dojo is a training site for grapplers of all levels to take their training and performance to the next level, the ultimate goal is building citizens of within our community with honor. Our philosophy at the Wrestling Dojo in El Dorado Hills, CA is that training and technical development without respect and honor is the only way to attain victory!
