Wrestle For Humanity

Body.  Mind.  Community.

We are for everyone and any-Body™

Wrestle for Humanity is a groundbreaking non-profit social project founded by Saeed Esmaeli. By fusing wrestling, psychology and movement, our mission is to improve the lives of people facing various forms of adversity within the community, such as financial difficulties, visible and invisible disabilities, mental health challenges, drug abuse and criminal offending.

​

We provide wrestling classes taught by top coaches, open to all regardless of age, gender, or ability and we regularly work with Bristol schools, faith and community groups to widen participation and use the sport to improve fitness, confidence and discipline.

Wrestle for Humanity! We rely on the generosity of our community to keep our training programs accessible and to continue supporting athletes and their families. Your donations will help us maintain access to our training space, provide essential equipment like mats, and ensure a clean and safe environment for everyone. Together, we can make a difference.
