Twin Towers NYC Adult Wrestling

You must have a current USA Wrestling Membership card, otherwise you cannot get on the mat.

WHO WE ARE:

Twin Towers Wrestling Club is an adult wrestling club based out of John Jay College in Manhattan (899 10th Avenue, New York, NY 10019). With wrestlers that range from beginners to seasoned veterans ages 18-70, our club dates back over 100 years to our original founding as the YMCA Wrestling Club. 

We are proud to call ourselves the only open-mat adult wrestling club in the city, and strive to create a safe, competitive environment among wrestlers of all ages, genders and skill levels.

WHAT WE DO:

Our practices run two hours and are an open-mat format where wrestlers train or learn at their own pace. 

We primarily practice folk style (collegiate) wrestling but freestyle and Greco-Roman competitors are welcome. New members are encouraged to approach veterans for one-on-one coaching.

Our schedule updates every six months and can be found on our schedule.

HOW TO JOIN:

Any wrestler wishing to participate in practice must first complete the following steps:

1. Create a profile on USA Wrestling (https://www.usawmembership.com)

2. Complete the SafeSport certification test on the USA Wrestling website.

3. Pay the USA Wrestling membership fee. 

4. Affiliate your USA Wrestling profile with the Twin Towers Club. To affiliate with our club on the USA Wrestling website: Profiles -> Manage Profile -> Add Club Affiliation -> search for "Twin Towers" in the club name -> click the button "Affiliate Club" 

Because of our contract with John Jay College you cannot actively participate without a current USA Wrestling membership. You are, however, welcome to observe.

PAYMENT:

To cover the cost of our contract with John Jay we charge wrestlers a membership fee. Payment options are listed below:

• $150 (through 5/31/25)

• Per Session: $20 — this entitles you to one single session at the club.

Ask about student and senior discounts. 

Members must submit their fee to Koko via Venmo (@yegnukian) or Zelle (917-416-7777) before setting foot on the mat. Further donations are appreciated but not required.
