Stage Combat/ Choreography Lessons??
Thu, 21 Sept 2006, 11:51 amG'day All
I’ve seen a few members inquiring about stage combat courses. There seems to be a genuine interest in violence on stage/film :) And why not!!! It is a fantastic skill to have and always looks good on a CV.
My question is then…what is the genuine feel out there if a school was created to teach people stage combat???
I’ve been doing martial arts for over 7 years and my brother and I are both professional Choreographers. We are currently doing martial arts scenes for an animation that, if all goes well, will be show and sold to Hollywood.
We are also currently helping out for an amateur dramatics stage play where we will be teaching people how to fight with a scythe (Death’s weapon).
Ultimately it is always easier when people have had training in martial arts but I just want to get a feel for what people think…
Let me know…Oh and don’t forget to smile :)

If you are prepared to go into that sort of thing, then my hat is off to you and good luck.
