A event held at The Island on Sunday 14th June. The event starts at 11:00.


This is a 2 hour workshop, taught by working professional wrestler Chuck Mambo designed for people interested in becoming professional wrestlers!

See the workshop as a taster session for if you have ever wanted to step into the ring!

We will cover: Lock Ups and Technical Wrestling, Rolls and Break Falls, Strikes, Pins and Submissions, and Character Work and Promos.
This training covers wrestling fundamentals and will be done on mats not in a wrestling ring.

We suggest wearing comfortable clothing for sports but if you wanna bring a mask or a cape you feel free! And character ideas are WELCOME!
As it is on a sprung dance floor the training will be done with no shoes on. Please bring a drink as we will be getting ACTIVE!

The workshop is designed for people who have never wrestled before so it will be physical but also adaptable so that all levels of fitness and all shapes of body are welcome! The workshop will be a safe and inclusive space for everybody so please bring a good attitude! While it is designed for total newcomers, if you have been to the last workshop, you are very welcome along and we'll have some new stuff to try!

Chuck Mambo has wrestled for 12 years for companies including Riot Cabaret, Attack Pro Wrestling, Revolution Pro Wrestling, Progress Wrestling, German Wrestling Federation, Pro Wrestling Chaos, The Wrestling Revolver and TNA Wrestling. He is also the co-founder of Pro Wrestling Ceasefire.
