SISU Dark Horse - Non Profit

Diesel Wrestling Academy is the proud home of

SISU Dark Horse!

The mission behind SISU Dark Horse is to eliminate barriers and provide equal opportunity to training and competitive opportunities in Combat Sports. SISU is a Finnish proverb that stands for relentless determination in the face of extreme adversity. We believe that by training and competing in combat sports, young athletes can develop SISU, which will allow them to overcome any obstacle or adversity they may face both in sports as well as any area of life.

At Diesel Wrestling Academy, we believe that wrestling is more than just a sport; it’s a powerful opportunity for children to build skills that will last them a lifetime. We are committed to ensuring this opportunity is available to everyone, regardless of family income.

If you're interested in this empowering experience, contact Coach Nick Daza, the passionate founder of SISU Dark Horse. To apply, aspiring wrestlers must submit a short 400-word essay detailing their motivation, dedication, and passion for the sport. This isn't just about wrestling—it’s about embracing the mindset of a fighter, where drive and commitment shape your path to success.

But there’s more! If selected, you’ll not only get to train for free, but you’ll also commit to becoming part of a community that gives back. You’ll be required to attend at least one practice weekly and volunteer for at least 15 hours yearly. We believe in fostering growth both on and off the mat, and this is your chance to be part of something truly special.

Wrestling is a journey of discipline, resilience, and teamwork. If you’re ready to take the leap, we’re here to help you make the most of it!
