pandemonkium Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 My 10 y/o is crazy about WWE wrestling. She knows all the stats etc and she would like nothing more than to be a WWE Diva. We have both had a search about for a local gym that could help. So far no joy. Could any of you fine people help us out with any suggestions ?? Many Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

orphanannie Posted February 12, 2012 Share Posted February 12, 2012 Try looking for a drama club instead, WWE is not real! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is fun, it is entertaining and the holds are 100% fake. The injuries however aren't, wrestling is fake in the respect that you're acting, but bodies are not made to be thrown through the air. By all means when she's old enough to evaluate the risks for herself let her make the decision, until then keep her away from it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Many Thanks Why not get her to your local Judo or JuJitsu club, where she could learn how to really look after her self and if, when older, she still wants to do WWE style wrestling, she could take all the other competitors apart!

Fred1 Posted February 13, 2012 Share Posted February 13, 2012 I agree with Grappler. Wrestling can be fake, and sometimes dangerous. Why not take her along to a judo or jujitsu club or another martial art that uses wrestling style fighting and caters to juniors. Try this: http://www.japanese-martial-arts-sheffield.co.uk there are also quite a few others in the Sheffield area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
