What Should You Expect?

You should expect the following things from training for professional wrestling:

You will be pushed in every class to improve your cardio. Wrestling can be extremely intense, and it is critical that you are willing to always be improving your endurance and strength.
You will be given honest feedback on a regular basis to help you keep your goals realistic.
You will be asked to do things that may be uncomfortable at the time, but will get easier with time.
You will be asked to develop health routines that may be nutrition and fitness based. These are to help you improve your overall health and agility.
You will be asked to focus on your trainers, allow distractions to fade away for the time you are with us. This is critical as we will be teaching you how to work properly in and out of a wrestling ring.

Your Investment

It is important to realize that the cost of training is more than money, it is an investment in your future's potential.

The cost of training with us is $2000. This investment will help you define your early wrestling career and give you opportunities, if you work for them. You need to have reliable transportation, as missing even one class can be a set back. Prepare early for this financial commitment, as financial stress can hinder you. Training should be a fun, exciting experience for you, and stress will keep you from focusing.
