Level up has put a bar that is higher than 5 stars. Their attention to detail is impressive, highest standard, the coaching, how they correct the kids when the kid if not doing something correct, taking the time to correct, fix and making sure the kid understands how to do the move correctly. Impressive 100 stars out of 5...

The best decision we made was joining the Level Up family. My son started coming to Level Up, Acworth in November 2024 and has made tremendous progress. All of the Level Up coaches are great, but Coach Wysmark does a wonderful job of emphasizing the small things. Our son has wrestled for approximately 8 years, but has more confidence and love for the sport now than he ever did. We are grateful for what this training center has done for our son. The wrestling community has even talked about the difference it has made as they have witnessed his progress.

We’ve been attending Level Up Wrestling Center for almost 8 months, and it has been a game-changer for our son, who has been wrestling for 8 years. His skills have improved tremendously since joining, and he has truly “leveled up” as a wrestler. We only wish we had switched to this club years ago! Our son has formed a strong bond with the head coach, which has made all the difference. Despite the hour-long drive each way, it’s been worth every minute. Highly recommend Level Up to any wrestling family looking for top-notch coaching and growth!

We've only been with LevelUp a few months, but I can, with confidence, say the Acworth location is AWESOME. The coaches make sure the kids understand and execute as instructed. They always take the time to make sure the wrestlers are doing it properly and will help them whenever needed. We are truly impressed with the coaching staff. Our son looks forward to every practice. THANK YOU LevelUp for providing an excellent program. We look forward to watching our son progress under your tutelage.
