The Wildman Academy Wrestling School opened its doors in the fall of 2005. The school is located in Halifax, Nova Scotia. The head trainer is "Wildman" Gary Williams, with special guest trainers occasionally stopping by. The school teaches everything from the art of grappling (mat wrestling), hardcore and to the more advanced high flying maneuvers like, the moonsault, power bomb and the hurricanrana. They offer training to heavyweights, lightweights and women. Everybody is welcome to join.
