Great coaches! There are many kids of different age groups so there is someone for each kid to wrestle with. Coach Slate takes his times explaining everything and also demonstrates with the advanced kids who are always helpful.

Great environment, great coaches. My son took his first class last night and it’s clear why everyone recommends SWA. If you want your child to build confidence and find that grit inside of them it takes to be a winner on and off the mat then bring them here! Thank you Coach Slate and all the other coaches for being patient and working with my son, he loved it!

Great atmosphere with high level coaches with the intentions of teaching my son not only how to win on the mat but to succeed in everyday life! #Trusttheprocess

Awesome wrestling academy, our son went in with zero wrestling knowledge and has progressed a lot under Coach Slate’s direction. He still has a lot to learn but has really enjoyed it and has been very engaged through the great instruction. We will certainly be regulars here for a long time to come.

Great local place for young wrestlers.

Ethan and everyone at the gym were so kind, welcoming, and supportive. Zayden really enjoyed his session and felt comfortable right away. The facility was very clean, and since he didn’t come in with wrestling shoes, they even provided him with a pair so he could participate fully. The prices are very affordable, and overall the experience was excellent. They even allowed my 4-year-old son to join in for a bit—he loved it and is still talking about what he learned! He’s a little young to start right now, but once he’s of age, I’ll definitely be signing him up too.

Joining Slate Wrestling Academy has been a game-changer. Coach Slate brings unmatched passion, experience, and dedication to the mat every single day. Whether you're a complete beginner or an advanced wrestler, the environment here pushes you to grow, both physically and mentally. Highly recommend!

SWA is the perfect place for both beginner and experienced wrestlers. Coach Slate is great with the kids, dedicated to helping them reach their goals, and encourages them to reach their full potential. My son has grown exponentially since attending Slate's. A warm, welcoming atmosphere and the location is in a great central spot! 10/10 would recommend!

A life long of skill and dedication to the sport shows through the coaches at SWA

My son has been attending Slate Wrestling Academy for about a year now, and the growth we’ve seen—in both his wrestling skills and personal confidence—has been incredible. Coach Slate has a gift for breaking down techniques in a way that’s easy for elementary-aged kids to understand, and his dedication to each child’s success truly stands out. The supportive, family-like atmosphere created by the parents makes being part of this academy even more special. We’re so thankful to be part of this community!

SWA is more like a team than a club. Whether your athlete is new and looking to learn or experienced and looking to compete on a national level, you are covered here. Update. A little over a year in and Coach Slate already has a Fargo All-American on the roster, a 2nd-year wrestler. He also has helped produce several others who are competing all over the country. I'm not only proud of the wrestlers, but I am proud of what Coach Slate has done for this community.

If you are looking for a place where you can trust that your kid (that means girl or boy regardless if they wrestle or never have) will gain confidence and strength, this is the place to start. Coach Slate runs a top notch gym that can take any level of skill and build on it to help them achieve whatever goals you may be after. I have had 3 (17m, 11f, 5m) of my kids be a part of this gym at some point and all have had great experiences. Coach Slate and his crew are down to earth and focus on the success of all the wrestlers who attend this gym.

Slate wrestling academy is a gym for all kids and teens at any level and you will most definitely get the results you are looking for. Highly recommend giving it a try even if you are unsure .

We visited Slate during a training day and it was so amazing and thorough. The coaches are right on top of the wrestlers correcting technique and encouraging growth. I’ve see growth in new wrestlers who have now made state their first year under Slate. This is an awesome gym if you want your wrestler to advance and grow in the sport.

2025-05-11T02:17:58.269Z

The amount of growth my son and other kids have made in a very short time is a testament to the dedication of coach Slate and his program. I would recommend to any kid and parent who is willing to commit. We will see you there. Attitude is everything!!!
