Theatrical Fantasy Camp
This intensive will look at the over-the-top, absurd, and often misunderstood world of professional wrestling through the eyes of the actor combatant
All training will take place in our real 14' pro wrestling ring, so you will learn from the true experience of the pros.
We will begin with proper cardio for ring stamina, running the ropes, and basic bumping (falls on the mat) then move on to learning safe technique for slams and chain wrestling. Of course, learning the techniques is only the beginning for creating theatrical violence. We will focus on safe wrestling almost equally with proper character development, working a crowd, and pre-match interview skills. The workshop concludes with a student showcase that is run EXACTLY like an wrestling show. Each trainee will receive a choreographed match they will perform where they will let their inner Hogan and Macho Man shine in a training show extravaganza!
All skill levels are welcome but bear in mind this training is extremely physically demanding. It will hurt. You will be sore. Manager and Referee role possibilities open for those who are unable/unwilling to participate in the physical part the course.
