There are not enough words to express our love and appreciation for Coach B. He not only helped our son excel is wrestling, but he helped guide him as a person. The love, the support, the endless hours of making not just my son but many others believe in themselves and their potential is priceless. We can't thank Coach B enough for all he offered our son, our family. He never gave up on our son, through the good and bad, through the injuries, he was still right beside our son coaching and cheering him on. We will forever be family. Thank you Coach B for all you've offered our family.

Coach B is very technical and systematic with the wrestling program he provides the kids at AIM. He has an ability to break down techniques and drills that I've never witnessed before. No wonder he's in the Hall Of Fame. I couldn't be happier with the wrestling progress both of my boys have made with Coach B. He's ignited a passion for wrestling and the hard work it takes to get better in both of them. There are elementary, middle school, and high school wrestlers of all different levels training at AIM with Coach B all of which I have personally seen get to new and higher levels of wrestling skill. Coach Gabe, Coach Goff, and Coach Pat all complement Coach B's training and wrestling system and make sure the team is on the same page during practice. Lastly, the training facility is amazing. Mats, mats, and then more mats. Super cool artwork everywhere. With legit martial artist at every corner of the academy. This place is a five star academy.

Coach B is doing a fantastic job with my boys. They are really enjoying the class. I have seen vast improvements in their wrestling in a short amount of time. Coach B coaching style has created a positive work ethic and confidence on and off the mat for my boys. My wife and I are enjoying the atmosphere at AIM wrestling with Coach B. You can really see Coach B is very passionate in what he does and always willing to assist each and every child in class. The atmosphere is fantastic.

My son is going on his 3rd yr wrestling for his middle school team and attended two summer camps offered by Coach Balmeceda at AIM. Coach B has had such a positive impact on him, that we decided to sign him up for daily practices. Not only has Coach taught him new skills and how to perfect them, he also instills the kind of positive attitude and perseverance that is needed on and off the mats.

I am absolutely thrilled that Coach B has taken on this new venture as the head wrestling instructor at AIM. The entire gym is like nothing I have ever seen before. I know this may sound extremely bias since I am Coach B’s wife of 28 years but my husband puts everything he has into coaching. He eats, breathes and bleeds wrestling. His attention to detail in everything he does is what makes him so unique. My sons have been blessed to have had him as a role model in their corner since day one. Excited for the AIM wrestling family to witness my husband’s greatness firsthand. #balmecedatrained
