Coach Jorge is an exceptional instructor. We were seeking a program for our 6-year-old to learn the fundamentals of wrestling, and we were fortunate to discover Matburn. Under his guidance, our son is developing strong foundational skills while enjoying the training process. I highly recommend Matburn; Coach Jorge’s teaching is truly outstanding.

Great programs for adults and kids. It’s beginner and advanced friendly. If you never wrestled, wanna learn because your kids enjoy the sport or you were a stud in high school, it’s perfect for you. They also offer fitness classes on Saturdays. Coach Jorge is a 5 times Ironman, has done hundreds of races, currently a purple belt in jiu jitsu working on his brown. He’s an experienced wrestler and coach and also TEAL certified with USA women’s wrestling. Definitely would recommend going here. Support small businesses!

we are current members and have had nothing but a positive experience ! My children have learned so many techniques that they use on the mat from this club ! Love this wrestling club! My 7-year-old daughter and 5 year old son have been learning so much and having a blast. The coaches are amazing with the kids, teaching not just wrestling techniques but also teamwork and confidence. Highly recommend for parents looking for a supportive community for their little wrestlers! 👍

We couldn’t be happier with this wrestling club and coach. He is passionate, patient, and focused on developing not just strong wrestlers, but respectful and confident individuals. The progress we’ve seen in skill, work ethic, and attitude has been incredible.

We were having trouble with our child losing his love for wrestling after a few losses at the end of his second season. Matburn reignited his spark and passion for the sport almost instantly. Learning new techniques and mat discipline is a huge bonus that will allow this season to be better than ever. Much recommended!
