The sounds of Spanish music and bodies hitting the wrestling ring can be heard at the only Lucha Libre school in the Pacific Northwest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Owner Jos\u00e9 Luis G\u00f3mez has over 45 years of experience in Lucha Libre \u2013 or free fight \u2013 a Mexican style of wrestling. G\u00f3mez was born in Veracruz, Mexico, but grew up in Mexico City, where Lucha Libre originated 90 years ago and has since become a strong Mexican cultural symbol.\u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, growing up, he didn\u2019t watch Lucha Libre. He was first introduced to the sport when he was 15 years old. His cousin invited him to train with him, and since then, his love for Lucha Libre has grown. He became a professional luchador \u2013 or a Mexican wrestler \u2013 when he was 18 and competed in tournaments all over Mexico.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cHay mucha Lucha Libre [en M\u00e9xico]; en cualquier ciudad que vayas, siempre encontrar\u00e1s un escenario para la Lucha Libre\u201d, G\u00f3mez said in Spanish about how in whatever city in Mexico you go, you will always find an arena for Lucha Libre.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Tacoma, Washington, home to the only lucha libre school in the Pacific Northwest \ud83e\udd3c\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/P0uE4HWzxkQ?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">He moved to the United States 25 years ago. An opportunity to open up his own Lucha Libre school presented itself 15 years ago with the inspiration of the name Volc\u00e1nica \u2013 or volcanic \u2013 coming from Mount Rainier, one of Washington\u2019s most prominent landmarks and volcanoes. Since then,\u200b he has taught countless students and professional wrestlers and participated in various Lucha Libre events.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAt our first event, a lot of people cried because they said it had been a long time since they watched a Lucha Libre match,\u201d G\u00f3mez said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While Lucha Libre originated in Mexico, Lucha Libre Volc\u00e1nica is not exclusive to just Mexican wrestlers, G\u00f3mez said. They welcome everyone of all races, ethnicities, and nationalities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"lucha-libre-volcanica-relocates-to-tacoma\">Lucha Libre Volc\u00e1nica relocates to Tacoma \u200b<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Lucha Libre school was first located in Seattle, but during the pandemic, they had to cancel all their events, stop practicing, and their building was sold. They even lost one of their team members, The Joker.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They recently relocated to a new location in Tacoma at 5425 S. Tacoma Way, but have struggled to retain the wrestlers, many of whom are still afraid of COVID-19, G\u00f3mez said. Before COVID, they had around 40 people, including pro wrestlers and students. Currently, they have around 25 students and pro wrestlers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sigurd Cazador de Dragones, or Sigurd Slayer of Dragons, is a current wrestling student at Lucha Libre Volc\u00e1nica who has asked to go by his wrestling name in order to keep his identity hidden. In Lucha Libre, wrestlers rarely reveal their identity to add to the spectacle of the sport and to maintain the illusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sigurd said in an interview in Spanish that he joined the Lucha Libre school six months ago after deciding it was finally time to make his childhood dreams of becoming a professional luchador a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sigurd, who moved from Oaxaca, Mexico, and has lived in Seattle for the past five years, said he grew up watching Lucha Libre and looked up to the professional wrestlers on his TV.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAbout 20 years ago, when I watched Mexican wrestling, which is the most common in Mexico, I watched wrestlers like Perro Aguayo, El Hijo del Santo, La Parka, and the M\u00edstico, and ever since I was a child, I formed this thought that I want to be like this person,\u201d Sigurd said. \u201cUnfortunately, sometimes you don\u2019t have anyone to support you, and you have to follow your dreams on your own, but the most important thing is never giving up on your dreams, and if you want it, you will succeed, no matter how old you are, regardless of whether you\u2019re 15 or 40, you\u2019re going to make it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since joining the school, Sigurd said he has had a good experience, is grateful for how welcoming and friendly the other wrestlers have been, and has grown to be fond of G\u00f3mez. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe people who are professionals and have spent a much longer time than me in this area of wrestling are very friendly. They teach you practically everything, from the easiest basics to the most difficult ones that exist in that world,\u201d Sigurd said. \u201cIt is a world that is very open, but most importantly, there is a lot of friendship between fellow wrestlers. It\u2019s not like a job; I think it\u2019s a second family that you form here.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although Sigurd has only been with the Lucha Libre Volcanica for six months, he said he is only a few months away from debuting as a professional Lucha Libre wrestler and is very excited to be one step closer to achieving his dream.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-2-1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5061877\" srcset=\"https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-2-1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-2-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-2-1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-2-1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-2-1.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><br>Kalico, an instructor and professional Lucha Libre wrestler teaching a student how to fall and roll forward.

Rudos tend to be rowdy and harsher in their moves, while t\u00e9cnicos tend to use very formal combat styles. During training, a luchador identifies what character they want to personify based on the style of wrestling, an animal they want to represent, or a figure they want to embody. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The character they create then incorporates itself through the mask. This mask is rarely ever taken off during competitions and is what distinguishes American wrestling from Mexican wrestling. The mystery of who\u2019s behind the mask further adds to the spectacle of the event, G\u00f3mez said. All the outfits are made in Mexico and cost around $1,000 each.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cAmerican wrestlers talk too much,\u201d G\u00f3mez said. \u201cMexican wrestling has more action in the ropes, and the wrestlers fly. It\u2019s more of a spectacle.\u201d \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-4-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5061875\" srcset=\"https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-4-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-4-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/latinonewsnetwork.com\/waln\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/11\/2024\/05\/volcanica-4.jpg 1140w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Wrestling students from Lucha Libre Volcanica practice falling flat on their back during their training on Sunday, May 5. Rosemary Montalvo rmontalvo@thenewstribune.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"training-at-lucha-libre-volcanica\">Training at Lucha Libre Volc\u00e1nica \u200b<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Every Sunday, students and professional wrestlers attend a 2-hours long strenuous practice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During practice\u200b, they start by warming up and then continue on to learn different techniques and exercises, such as how to fall, climb the ring, and roll forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI try to teach them how to take care and protect themselves because this sport looks easy, but it can be dangerous,\u201d G\u00f3mez said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kalico, an instructor and professional Lucha Libre wrestler who has asked to go only by his wrestling name, has been with and represented Lucha Libre Volc\u00e1nica throughout his eight-year professional career.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kalico grew up outside New York City in Westchester County and said he has always loved professional wrestling. He remembers attending his first World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) event.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI was 8 years old when I saw my first pro wrestling event, WWE, at the Westchester County Center,\u201d Kalico said. \u201cI\u2019ve just been into it forever, I had an older brother who was also into it and all of the kids at school were into it. This was the 80s, so I grew up watching Hulk Hogan, Macho Man, and Jimmy \u2018Superfly\u2019 Snooka were all the guys who I grew up with as heroes.\u201d \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Growing up, Kalico was always an athletic kid who played team sports. However, he preferred lifting weights and practicing martial arts, which he continued into adulthood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kalico moved to Seattle in the 1990s, where he began training kung fu before his friend told him about an independent wrestling show there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI had never heard of independent wrestling in Seattle, so I was really excited and we were going to be at El Corazon for the event called Project 42, and that was the first independent wrestling that I\u2019d seen in Seattle, and it just lit me up,\u201d Kalico said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Kalico had already been looking to begin training with a powerlifting gym, but after attending this event, he began searching for ways to get involved with Seattle\u2019s wrestling scene. Kalico said he found Lucha Libre Volc\u00e1nica and reached out to G\u00f3mez, who welcomed him to begin training. \u200b<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cI went to my first training and just never turned back. I loved it. I loved the physicality of it,\u201d Kalico said. All the people that I met\u2014well, not all the people, but a lot of the people I met\u2014I got along with great. Once I started, I just couldn\u2019t stop. I just wanted to learn everything I could.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Many of the luchadores at Lucha Libre Volc\u00e1nica work full-time jobs in addition to being pro-wrestlers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cEveryone has their jobs,\u201d G\u00f3mez said. \u201cHere, you\u2019re not going to become rich; you\u2019re not going to earn much money. But it\u2019s a sport that gets in your blood, and you enjoy it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It typically takes a student between seven months to two years for a student to participate in their first match, depending on how much dedication and effort they put in, G\u00f3mez said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">They travel to many areas across the \u200bU.S. for tournaments. They have eight events lined up for the rest of the year, averaging around one event per month.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">His motivation to continue pursuing his Lucha Libre school comes from his students and wrestlers. Seeing them succeed motivates him to continue teaching. In the future, he hopes to continue growing the family of luchadores and gaining more students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cLucha Libre is part of the Mexican culture we brought here,\u201d G\u00f3mez said. \u201cThanks to god, he gave us the opportunity to open a school here. We are the only Lucha Libre school in the Northwest, and it\u2019s an honor for me to be the pioneer of bringing Lucha Libre to Washington state.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Cover Photo: Lucha Libre Volcanica students practice stunts during their class at a small gym in Tacoma on Sunday, May 5.
