White Mountain Warrior Camp is a retreat type overnight camp system designed to expand participants' mental, physical, emotional and spiritual states of being. Through this challenge students will be sleeping in tents, participating in two wrestling workouts, one beach workout and one hike a day in the White Mountains of NH. At White Mountain Warrior Camp we supply healthy food options for the athletes to stay well nourished while pushing their limits internally and externally. Factored into their workouts, students will be doing cold water therapy, yoga, journal reflections and meditation. These practices will catalyze the students ability to process the immediate experience and give them an opportunity to reflect on their daily work. The mission behind this is to provide these humans healthy outlets toward living a wholesome well-balanced life, while also pushing them to increase their overall awareness. White Mountain Warrior Camp is a one of a kind wrestling camp that will forever have a positive impact on the participating athletes. In 2023 the camp was held in Moultonborough, NH and in 2024 Henniker, NH; this year, 2024-2025- we have partnered up with the adapt program out of Plymouth, NH and this will be our home for the foreseeable future. The camp will be held in Plymouth, NH at Plymouth State University where the students will be camping out within 3 miles of campus. On campus is where students will wrestle, lift, eat and shower.

2024 Recap: 2024 White Mountain Warrior Camp was one for the books! It was the first year that we were able to incorporate New England College dorms to ensure the safety and comfort of our athletes. It was also the first year we added in the 7 day option in which truly tested the athletes who endured the 7 days. Each day was structured around climbing the mountain, getting in a field workout and wrestling 3x a day. Guest clinician and World Team Member Chance Marsteller featured the final 3 days of camp. This year we plan on bringing the intensity up another notch as we continue to grow. The structure is solidified, the work is defined and the proof is in the pudding. In our 3 years of operation we have had State Champions, New England Champions, National Champions and World Team Members enroll into camp and beyond that, students are returning home with a lifetime experience.
