Coach Dalton Bullard
FOUNDER & HEAD COACH
Hi, my name is Dalton Bullard. I am the Founder and Head coach of The School of Wrestling. I’m a former Division 1 wrestler, a 2x Division 3 All-American, and I have a bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science. I’ve coached at the youth, high school, and college level.
Private Lessons
Private lessons offer personalized guidance, fostering rapid progress and confidence on the mat. Working 1-on-1 or in a small group setting of 2-4 athletes, our coaches breakdown critical techniques and strategies, with individualized attention.

🎥 Take a Look Inside a Private Wrestling Lesson
In this video, I’m working with an athlete to drill critical positions that often decide the outcome of a match. By focusing on these key scenarios, we’re building the skills and confidence needed to excel when it matters most.
Private lessons cover all areas of wrestling—neutral, top, bottom, and transitions—to ensure consistent growth and well-rounded development. With a committed mindset and hard work, improvement becomes inevitable.
