His goal is to help wrestlers develop confidence, discipline, technical skill, and a lasting love for the sport.Joining The Best Wrestler is especially meaningful to Zeke because it reunites him with his former club coach, Coach Ivan “Delchev” Ivanov.

"I can’t express the appreciation I have for Georgie and Ivan. They are passionate about developing youth wrestling and they have a way of transforming a kids mind set from liking the sport, to loving the sport. I have a 12 year old daughter that I would have never thought would get into a sport like wrestling. We are now in our third year being at The Best Wrestler and my daughter has dreams of becoming a National Champion and going on to wrestle collegiately. Georgie and Ivan have a way of communicating to the youth to dream big and work hard. They make every kid in the room feel as if they are important to them and they are on their way to being a champion."

My son, Rylan, has been with The Best Wrestler for just over a year, and the progress he’s made has been incredible. A year ago, he didn’t place at the AAU state tournament in folkstyle—now he’s taken 6th at AAU state and become both the USA Freestyle and Greco state champion. Physically, he’s stronger and more technical, but the biggest changes have been in his mindset. His confidence, discipline, and mental toughness have grown tremendously. The coaches here are second to none—they push the athletes to reach their full potential while building them up every step of the way. Their dedication, knowledge, and belief in these kids make all the difference. We’re proud to be part of this program and highly recommend it to anyone serious about wrestling development. Be The Best!

We would highly recommend Coach Ivan and Coach Georgi at The Best Wrestler. They are amazing coaches and people! They have distinguished backgrounds and experience in coaching and wrestling both domestically and internationally. They have had a tremendous influence on our son Joel. They were instrumental in helping him win his first two Fargo titles and the success has continued on from there. They were also extremely helpful during the college recruiting process. I would encourage you to bring your son or daughter in to meet with Coach Georgi and Coach Ivan to see how they can help them develop their skills as they have many others. The lessons they teach will not only help your son or daughter become a better wrestler, but also a better person on and off the mat. Also if you are wanting your son or daughter to jump levels in their wrestling abilities, I would highly recommend you get them to the morning workouts. They are a game changer!

More than Wrestling

Your child won’t just learn takedowns. They’ll gain resilience, humility, and the courage to lead. Wrestling ends someday, but the lessons here last forever.
