Available spots
Service Description
Hosted by Fights by Flanagan, participants will learn both the core principles and the newest techniques for the performance of dramatically effective stage combat. This intensive course will cover essential professional skills including falls, rolls, slaps, punches, kicks, blocks, and throws/grapples. Most importantly, participants will learn how to approach theatrical violence from a place of physical and mental safety, while still making room for exciting, dynamic, and effective acting in scenes of conflict. At the end of this course, participants will learn and perform choreographed fight scenes, which will be filmed and made available for use in professional reels. This intensive fulfills all requirements for an Unarmed Skills Proficiency Test with the Society of American Fight Directors (SAFD). Participants may opt in to having their fight scene adjudicated by an SAFD Fight Master. The SAFD adjudication/test is optional and requires an additional $60 fee, paid directly to SAFD. The SAFD is an internationally recognized training organization dedicated to promoting safety and fostering excellence in the art of stage combat. Visit https://safd.org/faq/ for more information
