In professional sumo wrestling, a heya or beya (部屋; lit. 'room') is an organization of wrestlers where they train and live in a "quasi-monastic and militaristic lifestyle". It is most commonly and metaphorically translated in English as "stable", but is also translated as "training quarters", or "fraternity".
