The Palmetto Wrestling Academy is a second home to me. The care shown for this place from not only Ethan Case, but everyone involved, is unrivaled. For all the reviews you find about how the PWA is a family - they are 110% correct. From day one, I have ALWAYS felt like I belong here. If you have ever thought or dreamed about being a professional wrestler - you belong here too. Thank you, PWA family. I am proud to have you in my life.

Me finding this place is absolutely God sent! Ethan Case has so much knowledge about becoming a pro wrestler! From promos, advertising, booking, in ring skills, you name it, you'll learn it at the PWA. Most importantly is the family that he continues to create on a weekly basis. Great relationships with your fellow class mates is guaranteed. If you join the PWA, just know that the sky is the limit.

Take my word for it that this is THE best wrestling school in the south. Guaranteed. The amount of knowledge that’s passed on to you from Ethan Case isn’t your typical teachings like you’d receive from any other wrestling school. Heck, wrestling is actually the least important part of what we do as a whole! I won’t shed light on anything else, other than the fact that if you’re looking to become a professional wrestler, this is the place for you!
