Having an emotional connection to what you are doing in a ring, is very important. Not only for you as a wrestler to understand, but for you to project that emotion to your paying audience.

Coach Spud ™ breaks down the understanding and how, unfortunately, life experience in physical situations, can actually help wrestlers emote better stories.

We hold classes every Monday, Tuesday & Thursday EVERY WEEK 6pm-9pm

We have SINGLE SESSIONS and MONTHLY MEMBERSHIP options on our website in the bio.

Come train with the best physically AND mentally.
