Atlas Grappling in Las Vegas offers youth and adult programs focused on martial arts and fitness.
The academy was founded by Damien Nitkin and Beth Nitkin, who remain actively involved in its operation.
Damien serves as the head coach and brings over a decade of coaching experience, holding a second-degree black belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
He has trained since 2009 and leads both youth and adult classes with a focus on technical development.
Beth Nitkin discovered Jiu-Jitsu in 2015 through Damien, and their shared passion led to the creation of the club.
The team includes Charleen, who manages the gym and leads the Little Grapplers Program alongside her husband Rene.
Youth wrestling is taught by Kyle Taijeron, who focuses on fundamental techniques for children aged 8 to 14.
For athletic development, Brody Harford designs the strength and conditioning curriculum.
Classes are taught by Elena Seiple, a former professional Strongman, powerlifter, and bodybuilder.
The facility includes a fully equipped weight room with dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells, power racks, and cardio equipment.
Programs include Youth Jiu-Jitsu for ages 8 and up, Youth Wrestling Fundamentals, invitation-only Club Wrestling for ages 5 and up, and specialized conditioning for competitors.
