Constant and Consistent
Zach and Sarah started High Elevation Wrestling as a non-profit organization in 2013 when Zach saw the need for a place for wrestlers who wanted and needed more than what the already amazing programs offered. After taking a few years off due to loss of space and the start of their family they are ready to dive back in and pursue their dreams of having a place where wrestlers can grow and learn their craft.
About us
High Elevation Wrestling is a wrestling club that was created by Zach Flake in the hopes of providing young wrestlers with a passion and love for one of his favorite sports. Over time Zach has contributed and added to the strong wrestling community located in Chaffee County, Colorado. We support our local programs like Rock Hard, Salida Youth Program, Buena Vista and Salida Middle School and High Schools, as well as the surrounding areas that are more limited in what wrestling can be provided. We are committed to providing exceptional wrestling instruction and fostering a supportive environment for athletes of all ages and skill levels. Our experienced coaches are passionate about helping each wrestler reach their full potential, both on and off the mat.

"HEWC was far more than a place to train, it was where I was shaped. We traveled countless miles and make countless memories together, but what mattered most were the milestones we crossed every time we toed the line or pushed each other to the limit alongside our closest friends. That environment instilled discipline, resilience, and accountability, qualities that didn't just make me a better wrestler, but helped make me a better wrestler, but helped make me a man and prepared me for success beyond the mat. Those lessons and that culture are what ultimately guided me to have the opportunity to be a Division 1 wrestler and continues to guide me in the real world today. If you want to see success in life, HEWC is where you will find just that."

"I'm beyond grateful for HEWC, not just for the memories or lifelong connections, but for the way it saved me in moments when I didn't even realize I needed it. Every loss, every win, every hard day on the mat shaped who I am today. When life felt heavy and I felt lost, HEWC gave me purpose and a reason to keep pushing. It taught me discipline, grit, and heart - things I carry with me in everything I do. I'll always carry what this place gave me, and one day I hope to give my family the same strength and foundation that HEWC gave to me."
