While she mainly trained under Matsuda, she received training from Aria Jaxon and Tarah Nova in 2017 when the three Empire wrestlers were on mutual terms. According to Matsuda, Black became one of her most prized students, adopting a balanced move set in favor of a complex style focused in one area.
