Student Testimonials
Jul 24, 2020
“This is the place to be. Allen Raczkowski and John Kivler are two of the greatest people I’ve known in my life. They do so many great things for this place and turned it from an old abandoned building, to one of the top youth wrestling and jiu-jitsu clubs in the area. Brand new mat as of July 21, 2020, and that’s not the end of the plans for this new team.”

“I’ve met Coach Matt multiple times at various tournaments. He’s an absolute beast of a competitor with coaching skills to add! His kids program is outstanding.”

“The COO Allen Raczkowski doesn’t pay his debts. He owes me $300 since November and thinks blocking me, cancels out his debt. Don’t trust him with your money.”
