Final Fall Tomorrow’s Leaders workshop

Posted: November 6, 2024

This past Sunday, we concluded our last Fall Tomorrow’s Leaders workshop series with an inspiring Pre-Season Training event!

Our athletes had the privilege of learning from two exceptional guest speakers: Katherine Shai and Nathan Tomasello. Katherine is a 7x National Team Member, 2x Olympic Team Alternate, and University World Champion, as well as the founder of LuchaFIT. 

Nathan is a 2015 D1 NCAA Champion, 4x Big Ten Champion, Co-owner of Submission Solutions, and currently an assistant coach at California Baptist University.

Katherine kicked off the workshop by sharing her expertise in recorded video analysis, guiding our leaders through strategies and insights that will elevate their wrestling skills.

Afterward, Nathan led a hands-on session focusing on defensive techniques and offensive move variations. The wrestlers split into two groups, rotating between Katherine and Nathan for an immersive training experience.

This workshop truly embodied the mission of the Tomorrow’s Leaders program, which aims to equip student-athletes with essential skills for their post-high school journey. For the 2024-25 season, we are offering a record number of workshops—10 in total—designed to nurture leadership, college readiness, and career preparation.

A huge thank you to Katherine and Nathan for their invaluable contributions, and to all our participants for making this event a success! 

Catch us in Spring for the second half of our Tomorrow’s Leaders programming, resuming Sunday March 30, 2025.
