"My son credits Coach Erik Delehanty and Coach Joel Mode as huge influences in his development into a Division I wrestler. Recently he was home training for the Pan Am Games and Coach Delehanty went out above and beyond to get him great training partners and the workouts he needed to place."

"My daughter looks forward to each session and is excited for the opportunity to come back during her college breaks to practice and help in any way with the youth program, the coaching staff is inviting and respectful while pushing greatness, we are excited to see the club grow in numbers and excel in all aspects of wrestling. As the girls wrestling program grows around the country I know that LWA coaching staff is going to make a difference in the support, strength and guidance they all need."

"We could not be more impressed with our experience at this wrestling club. What sets this program apart is its exceptional commitment to long-term athlete development.

"As a father and high school coach of both young men and young women, I am incredibly careful about who I trust to work with my wrestlers and my own son and daughter. Both Coach Delehanty and Mode are extremely knowledge and passionate, but more importantly, they emphasize sportsmanship, dedication, and doing things the right way."

"I had a fantastic experience working with Coaches Mode, Delahanty, and Williams. They and the rest of the coaching staff are extremely knowledgeable about technique, and after only two years working seriously with them I moved from a JV wrestler to a state champion and all-state placer. When I worked with the coaching staff as an assistant coach, I discovered that they didn't just prioritize winning. They focused on instilling good habits in their wrestlers in all walks of life - wrestling, academic, and personal. This culture is a large part of what I believe helped me to continue to have success as a college wrestler. I highly recommend working with any of these coaches!"

"Leviathan gives every wrestler exceptional attention and care. I started as a complete beginner, and by the time I left for the winter season, I was already competing with high-level wrestlers. I give a lot of credit to the coaches and the quality of the practices. Leviathan helped me improve quickly and gave me the confidence to compete."

At Leviathan Wrestling Academy, we believe that real growth happens when technique meets character. These testimonials from our community highlight the trust parents place in our coaches and the tangible results young wrestlers achieve both on the mat and in their personal lives.
You won't find a coaching staff more dedicated to using the sport of wrestling for developing athletes on and off the mat. The coaches at Leviathan build a culture where every wrestler feels supported, pushed, and genuinely known. As a parent, I couldn't ask for more.

"The coaching staff is phenomenal, providing the individualized attention our son needs to refine his technique and build confidence. Additionally, the club is the ideal size—it is large enough to offer a great variety of skilled training partners, yet small enough that no athlete ever gets lost in the crowd. Beyond the excellent technical training, we deeply value the character development we have seen in our son since joining. This club is building great wrestlers and even better young men. We are proud to be part of this community and highly recommend it to any family looking for a top-tier wrestling environment.
