Your mindset should help you win.
But it’s very hard to compete at your best when you’re.…
X Worried about how good your competition is
X Afraid of making mistakes and losing
X Overwhelmed by the pressure of an important event
X Competing not to lose instead of competing to win
An elite mindset is confident, resilient & poised under pressure. It should be your competitive edge. If you’re mindset isn’t helping you win, coaching can help you turn that around.
With Mindset training, You will:
Train your mental Edge
Structured mindset training that builds focus, resilience, and emotional control.
Stay composed under pressure
Develop the tools to compete freely and recover instantly from mistakes, bad calls, or momentum shifts.
Execute when it counts
Translate practice into competition with a clear mental plan that shows up when you need it.
The Composed Competitor
Most wrestlers spend hundreds of hours developing their technique but very little time training their mind. The composed competitor changes that.
This is a 24-week structured 1:1 mental performance program designed to run alongside your athlete’s entire folkstyle season — from the first practice in September through the final competition in February. Every tool, every session, and every worksheet is built around one outcome: an athlete who competes with confidence and poise every time they step on the mat.
-
Weekly 1:1 Coaching Sessions Each week your athlete meets directly with Sammy for a focused 30-minute virtual session. Each call is built around your athlete’s specific goals, challenges, and upcoming competition schedule.
Weekly Mindset Worksheets Before each session your athlete completes a targeted worksheet that prepares them for the coaching session.
Weekly Training Videos Each worksheet is accompanied by a short training video that explains the concept, the purpose behind it, and exactly how to apply it on the mat. Your athlete shows up to every session already primed and ready to go deeper.
Midweek Accountability Check-In Between sessions your athlete receives a short midweek check-in — three targeted questions that keep them on track, reinforce the week’s focus, and surface anything that needs to be addressed before the next session.
Competition Debriefs Throughout the season we will debrief each competition performance. What was the mental game plan. What worked. What didn’t. What to adjust. This influences the agenda for the following session and creates a paper trail of growth across the full 24 weeks.
-
Phase 1 — Foundation (Weeks 1-8) The first 8 weeks build the core mental framework your athlete will use for the rest of their career. Pre-match routine. Focus list. Reset button. Confidence building. Handling pressure. Managing expectations from parents, teammates and coaches. Each concept builds on the last so the tools compound over time.
Phase 2 — Depth (Weeks 9-24) The final 16 weeks go deeper into the areas most relevant to your athlete’s specific performance gaps — identified through the intake process and refined through the first phase. The final four weeks are strategically built around your athlete’s biggest competitions of the season.
-
By February your athlete will have:
A personalized pre-match routine they own and trust
A trained reset button that works automatically under pressure
A focus list that keeps their brain in execution mode when it matters most
The ability to recover quickly from mistakes, bad calls, and adversity
A mental game that matches their physical preparation
-
For the program to work as designed your athlete must be willing to show up. That means:
Attending weekly sessions prepared and on time
Completing weekly worksheets before each session
Watching the accompanying training video
Responding to midweek check-ins honestly
This is not a passive program. It requires commitment. But the athletes who commit get results.
-
The skills your athlete builds in this program don't disappear after wrestling. They carry into school, professional careers, relationships, and every high-pressure moment for the rest of their life.
-
Sammy personally coaches every athlete in this program. To protect the quality of each coaching relationship a limited number of spots are available each season. When the roster is full — it’s full.

I’m here to help you win.
If you want to be the athlete who shows up confident, composed, and ready to win when the pressure is on, hard work alone isn’t enough — you need a structured plan to strengthen your mindset.
Most athletes agree mindset matters. Very few actually train it. And competition exposes that gap. You can be disciplined in practice and still tighten up before the whistle, lose focus after a mistake, or underperform in big moments. I know how frustrating that feels, especially when you know you’re capable of more.
That’s why I provide structured 1:1 mindset coaching for wrestlers & combat athletes. Here’s how it works:
We identify the mental gaps limiting your performance.
We meet weekly to implement your personalized training plan.
You develop the skills to execute under pressure.
