Krause Closing Speech

LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!

Mike,

I am the owner of a marketing agency in California. I used to wrestle in high school and loved the sport. Now, I do triathlons and marathons. This is one of the best speeches I have heard. I wish I had a coach like you in high school. Now, I coach myself. Take care and keep up the great work!

The kinda vid that makes you just amazingly proud to be involved in wrestling. You're doing awesome things for these kids Krause. Keep it up! The Words of Wisdom...one of the best things I've seen.

Bringing the heat to the A-T-L

Now that's INTENSITY!! Get it Krause!....I forgot to tag my name to the comment below. Bring It

Now that's INTENSITY!! Get it Krause!

We love Coach Krause! He is an amazing coach and absolutely fantastic with even the very young kids. He combines fun with learning and TONS of repetition which really works. He is also a great motivator, if you ever get a chance to hit one of his practices or camps -DO IT! You'll be LOVIN IT!

Krause = my kids favorite coach. The little things he does in practice stay with my son and I know its shaping him in a great way! This is how he is EVERY practice! Crazy intense! Glad hes on here.

I wish I had a coach like this. Very inspirational, motivational, and I liked how they preyed. Very good video!

WoW! That was all just real and what an impact! Great job. the lords prayer was awesome.

faith, dedication, hardwork, character, integrity..........need I say more

love it

that one kid whipped out "we're on a vision quest!!" I LOVE IT!! i wish I was still on my vision quest too!! great stuff!!

As a modified coach, I applaud what Mike is doing. Great practice. I plan on using a lot of these techniques, motivational talks, etc. in my practice room. Thanks FLO!

Awesome example for coaches and parents alike. I will strive to be more like this with our club kids. Thanks for sharing

Probably the most beautiful thing ive ever seen

We need more people like this guy. Its so important that kids at that age learn to enjoy this sport and have a good attitude, so when they get older they aren't burnt out or letting this sport ruin them.

Mike Krause is the man.

If only there were more people like Mike Krause in the wrestling world...

I know that most everyone viewing this site has been to a youth wrestling tournament before, and how many times do we see the dads and coaches acting like complete jackasses.... If only there were more people like Mike Krause in the wrestling world....

Outstanding!

That is great.. Mike Krause gets what coaching is about!!

To the post two below me, they are a Catholic School.

thats cause he coaches in the catholic league

awesome! but why the need to bring religion into it?

That type of coaching makes me work harder as a coach for my kids! Thanks for the great video.

Mike Krause bringin the heat!! What's up!!!!! LUV IT

Finally, a video with bring the heat.

Krause, can I come wrestling for your club?

Outstanding.

We could use about a thousand more Mike Krauses teaching and coaching our kids.
I especially like his comments on how kids NEED to behave, win or lose. No crying, no throwing headgear, ALWAYS congratulating your opponent, win or lose. It is NOT about the single win at youth wrestling level. It IS about getting just a little bit better, each session on the mat or in the room. Champions in life are made that way.

this coach is amazing!! wish i had a youth coach like him for just on season!!!

Awesome!

How great is he with the kids! Fun and motivating all coaches can learn from this dude!

Excellent Video
I am glad 2 see that wrestling is in good hands
