"Coach Valdez has trained me to become one of the best and helped me reach my true potential. I have been to several wrestling camps and clinics, but none of them pinpoint and focus on the technique that is necessary to battle with the most elite wrestlers. I was no where near as confident on the mat as I am now because of all I have learned from Coach Valdez. He has helped my brother and me out so much and we are so grateful to have the opportunity to have him as a coach. Thank you so much Coach Valdez for believing in me and for pushing me every single practice."

“Dane Valdez was one of the most focused, hard –working , and technically advanced wrestlers I have ever coached. To have and opportunity to be coached by Dane would be a huge benefit to any young wrestler trying to reach his potential.”

“ I highly recommend for any wrestler who wants to take his wrestling to the next level to join Valdez Wrestling School. Spreading the sessions over an extended period of time allowed for our wrestlers to reinforce the techniques and resulted in optimal improvement.”

“ Coach Valdez was able to pinpoint specific areas of technique that I needed to improve on in order to improve against opponents at the higher levels. His detailed instruction made it easy for me to incorporate into my wrestling and helped me at the masters and state tournament. I only wish I would have started working with Coach Valdez a lot sooner”

“Coach Valdez has been working with Walker since the beginning of the '09 Post-season through this year's Folkstyle season. Walker has worked with many coaches during his wrestling career; many of them collegiate All-Americans and Olympians. But Coach Valdez's approach is unique and excellent. He merges the technical and mental aspects of wrestling and competition more effectively than any other coach Walker has worked with. Walker is definitely a better wrestler because he is a student of Valdez Wrestling School.”
