Youth Talent School Wrestling Program

This fall Youth Talent School has started a new wrestling program for all kids grades K - 8.  Powered by the enthusiasm of the lead coach Alex Motorny and other wrestling instructors, the wrestling program builds character, self confidence, sportsmanship, team spirit, mental and physical strength, and other qualities essential to young athletes.

Alex Motorny started learning freestyle wrestling at the age of 6 at the Club Lokomotiv in Kiev, Ukraine. He was twice the champion of Kiev in freestyle wrestling at the ages of 13 and 14.  At the age of 13 Alex became the third place champion in the all Ukrainian nationals. Thereafter Alex attended the wrestling program at the Keene high school, in Keen, NH. As a member of the Keene high school team he became the New Hampshire wrestling state champion in 1993 & 1994, a third place champion at the New England wrestling tournament in 1994 and the second place champion at the New England free style open tournament in 1994. Same year Alex was awarded the New Hampshire Outstanding Wrestler award.


At the Youth Talent School, Alex and his assistants present the fundamentals of wrestling in a fun and friendly setting. The program teaches basic and advanced techniques of folkstyle wrestling, such as: top and bottom positions, take downs and moves from each position.
