The EVE Academy is London’s first wrestling school for women.

It's targeting " self-identifying women" to give them more confidence, but also keep fit, and have fun.

Classes are lead by “The Fightin’ Irish” Rhia O’Reilly and professional wrestler turned stuntman Greg Burridge.

"We are teaching wrestling moves and wrestling training but of course this is helping women become more confident and self-assured," O'Reilly told Business Insider.

Classes are split into 3 parts: a warm-up, a wrestling skill session, and character building where women learn how to make an effective entrance into an arena.

"Some of the holds that we’re doing are based on legitimate holds and things that they could use in real life," O'Reilly said. "When you teach women to be physical it makes them feel more safe and secure in their everyday life as well."

Classes are taught in East London every Sunday. A session costs £10.
