Little Kids Wrestling
(Ages 5-7 years)
REGISTRATION ONGOING: What started as a seasonal class at MatTime has grown into something bigger. Because of the interest from parents — and the growth of youth wrestling in our area — Little Kids Wrestling is now an ongoing program.
If you’re going to introduce your child to wrestling, this is the right age to start.
Wrestling is one of the most demanding and competitive sports in the world. The earlier kids learn balance, body control, coordination, and mat awareness, the more confident and capable they’ll become as they grow. Our goal is to build a strong foundation now — without burning them out.
This class is challenging. It’s structured. It builds discipline.
But it’s also fun.
We teach real Folkstyle Wrestling in an age-appropriate way that keeps kids engaged while developing the fundamentals they’ll need down the road.

Our Approach
This isn’t chaos on a mat. It’s structured learning tailored to 5–7 year olds.
We focus on:
- Stance and motion
- Basic takedowns
- Top and bottom position fundamentals
- Balance, agility, and coordination drills
- Controlled live wrestling
We keep practices short (45 minutes), focused, and high-energy. Kids leave tired — but feeling good.
Why Start Wrestling Early?
Wrestling builds:
- Coordination and body awareness
- Mental toughness and resilience
- Discipline and work ethic
- Following instructions and attention to detail
- Respect for coaches and teammates
- Confidence under pressure
At MatTime, kids put down the devices and step into a room where effort matters. They learn how to work hard, listen, compete, and shake hands afterward.
We’re building more than wrestlers.
We’re building tough, respectful, grounded young athletes.
We Build Good, Strong Kids.
