We’re thrilled to announce the re-launch of our wrestling program here at Renzo Gracie Clarksville, and we have some exciting updates to share with you. Not only are we bringing back wrestling, but we’re also introducing two fantastic new coaches to our staff. Read on to learn more about what’s in store for our first week back, our tentative schedule, and our newest team members!
What to Expect: Wrestling classes will kick off on Monday, June 3rd, at 4:30 PM. To start, we’ll be hosting classes every Monday through Thursday at the same time. However, keep in mind that schedules are subject to change as we fine-tune our program based on feedback and participation.
Who Can Join: Our wrestling program is open to individuals of all ages, from 5 years old to adult. Whether you’re a seasoned wrestler looking to sharpen your skills or a complete beginner eager to learn, there’s a place for you in our program.
Cost and Membership Options: For those looking to exclusively join our wrestling program, the cost is $100 per month. However, if you’re already a member with our BJJ Unlimited or All-Access membership, wrestling is included at no additional charge. We also offer flexible drop-in options and credit packs for purchase to accommodate varying schedules and preferences.
Adult Wrestling: Our relaunch is currently open to all students ages 5 to adult. Throughout the initial period, our coaches will be assessing interest and participation to determine a definitive schedule moving forward. Rest assured, if there’s enough continued interest, we’ll happily continue offering adult wrestling classes.
Introducing Our New Coaches: We’re thrilled to welcome two exceptional individuals to our coaching staff: T.J. Santiago and Sean Heartley.
T.J. Santiago: Terrence Santiago, affectionately known as TJ, joins us with a wealth of experience and dedication to his role as coach and trainer at Renzo Gracie Clarksville. Hailing from Ellenville, New York, TJ has not only excelled as an athlete but also as a coach for the Amateur Athletic Union (AAU), guiding athletes at both regional and state levels to success.
