  • What is Wrestling?

    Wrestling is a combat sports involving grappling-type techniques such as clinch fighting, throws and takedowns, with pins and other grappling holds. Wrestling is an international sport. Wrestling comes in different forms such as Freestyle, Greco-Roman, and Folkstyle. A wrestling bout is a physical competition, between two competitors or sparring partners, who attempt to gain and maintain a superior position.

  • Can I try a wrestling class before I join?

    Yes. We offer a FREE 1 Week Trial so you can experience wrestling at Kings Academy, meet our coaches and see our facilities before deciding to join.

  • What is the difference between Wrestling and BJJ?

    The difference between Wrestling is that the goal of Wrestling is to win via pin whereas the goal in BJJ is to win via submission. In Wrestling the goal is the top position but in BJJ there is equal focus on the top and bottom position. Wrestling has a greater focus on stand-up grappling and BJJ has a greater focus on ground grappling. 

  • What Ages can train in Wrestling?

    We have classes for all ages and skill levels. We have a 6-12 years Primary class, and our adults’ classes which are 13 years and up. 

  • Why train wrestling at Kings Academy instead of a traditional wrestling club?

    Kings Academy offers far more than wrestling alone. While you'll receive expert coaching in Olympic Freestyle and Greco-Roman Wrestling, you'll also have the opportunity to train alongside Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Boxing, Muay Thai and Mixed Martial Arts(MMA), giving you the flexibility to become a more complete martial artist and athlete.


    Kings Academy offers Wrestling classes for Kids, Teens, and Adults.


    Our wrestling program is led by experienced coaches within an academy headed by UFC veteran and 5th Degree Brazilian Jiu Jitsu Black Belt Elvis Sinosic. Wrestling is taught as both a highly effective stand-alone sport and as an essential foundation for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, MMA and practical self-defence. Whether your goal is competition, improving athletic performance or learning real-world grappling skills, our structured coaching helps you develop strong fundamentals that transfer across multiple disciplines.


    Students also benefit from modern facilities, including extensive mat space, an MMA cage, boxing ring, strength and conditioning equipment, sauna and ice bath recovery facilities - all under one roof. Combined with a welcoming community, flexible class timetable and beginner-friendly approach, Kings Academy provides an environment where students of all ages and experience levels can continue developing long after mastering the basics of wrestling.

  • Is there a uniform for Wrestling?

    Yes, you are required to have either a Rashguard or Singlet and grappling shorts with the gym logo on them. 

  • Is wrestling good for self-defence?

    Yes. Wrestling is one of the most practical martial arts for self-defence because it teaches balance, body control, takedowns, clinch work and how to control an opponent without relying on strikes. Many MMA fighters and law enforcement professionals use wrestling because of its effectiveness in close-range situations. At Kings Academy, our wrestling classes develop practical skills that also complement Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Mixed Martial Arts training.

  • Is wrestling harder than Brazilian Jiu Jitsu?

    Wrestling and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu are different but highly complementary martial arts. Wrestling places greater emphasis on takedowns, explosive movement, top control and maintaining dominant positions, while Brazilian Jiu Jitsu focuses more on submissions, guard work and ground control. Many students choose to train both styles together to become more complete grapplers.

  • Can wrestling help improve my MMA?

    Absolutely. Wrestling is widely regarded as one of the most important foundations for Mixed Martial Arts. Strong wrestling allows you to dictate where a fight takes place by controlling takedowns, defending takedowns and maintaining dominant positions. Many of the world's most successful MMA athletes have a wrestling background, making it one of the most valuable skills for anyone interested in MMA.

  • Will wrestling help my Brazilian Jiu Jitsu?

    Yes. Wrestling significantly improves your takedowns, balance, pressure, scrambling and top control, giving you a major advantage in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Learning how to dictate where a match begins and maintain dominant positions makes wrestling one of the best complementary styles for BJJ practitioners.

  • Is wrestling a good workout?

    Definitely. Wrestling is one of the most physically demanding sports in the world, providing a full-body workout that develops strength, cardiovascular fitness, endurance, agility and explosive power. Every class combines technical instruction with high-intensity movement, making wrestling an excellent way to improve your overall fitness while learning practical skills.

  • Is wrestling safe for beginners?

    Yes. At Kings Academy, beginner wrestling classes are taught in a structured and progressive environment with experienced coaches who prioritise correct technique and safety. Students learn the fundamentals before progressing to more advanced drills and live wrestling, allowing everyone to develop confidence and skills at a comfortable pace.

  • Do I need to be strong to start wrestling?

    No. You don't need exceptional strength or fitness to begin wrestling. Our beginner classes are designed for all fitness levels, and your strength, conditioning and athletic ability will naturally improve as you continue training. Technique, timing and body positioning are far more important than raw strength.

  • Why should I learn Olympic-style wrestling?

    Olympic Freestyle and Greco-Roman wrestling develop athleticism, balance, coordination, explosive movement and body control unlike almost any other sport. They also provide an outstanding foundation for Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, Mixed Martial Arts and general self-defence while improving overall fitness and mental resilience.

  • How much does wrestling cost at Kings Academy?

    Membership pricing varies depending on how many classes and programs you'd like access to. We're happy to walk you through our current pricing during your FREE 1 Week Trial.
