Who We Are. What We Do

For nearly a decade Ryan Romano, founder of UPI, has been training and mentoring nearly 15,000 individuals and teams across the country.

His proven 4 pillar approach known as “The Iceberg System” is what continues continues to build young men and women in their sport but more importantly in the way they see and love themselves.

Why an Iceberg?

No matter what you put above water “success, happiness, abundance”…

It’s what you do underneath the part that’s “unnoticed” (the larger part) that drives to what people see on the surface.

What People Say About Us

"Ryan was a friend first to me...he wanted me to achieve my goals not because it would make him look good but it was something I wanted in my life.When I was having a hard time Ryan would put everything else on hold, because in all reality training was only a small of what Ryan wanted me to feel fulfilled in, so he made sure everything else was going well as well as my wrestling.I owe a lot of my success to Coach Romano, not only on the mat but in the classroom, my relationships and most of my personal endeavors."

Nick Smith

2020 State Champion

"Ryan Romano is one of the most outstanding young coaches around. Infusing work ethic, technique and energy into every workout he leads. Equally versatile as a leader of practices as he is in assisting. The connection he makes with his wrestlers is genuine and undeniable. Out of all the coaches I have worked with in twenty years of coaching, Ryan Romano is the one I want to work with again before all others."
