acting the action

rolling

wire pulls

cardio endurance

AM I QUALIFIED TO TAKE STUNT CLASSES?
In order to be eligible to take stunt classes we require that our students must be at least 13 years of age.
We will teach some foundational martial arts in class, but if you want to be a better stunt performer we highly encourage you to cross-train in some form of martial arts or self defense system.
We offer a discount for our stunt program if you are enrolled in either our Tae Kwon Do, Krav Maga, or Muay Thai programs.
WHERE CAN I TAKE THESE CLASSES?
Stunt classes can be arranged for both public and private settings.
We have our public classes every Friday morning at 10:30 AM.
We also have practice hours on Mondays from 6-8 PM.
Private lessons work great if you are building up choreography for a specific project (YouTube videos, plays, feature films). Message us or talk to an instructor about what we can do for your project!
ARE THE CLASSES SAFE?
The answer is yes, absolutely!
These classes are taught much like our martial arts classes: we start small and gradually grow our students abilities.
These classes are not for people who are reckless. Being a good stunt performer is about minimizing the risk by using the proper techniques and the proper equipment to ensure that the stunts can be repeated several times in a short period.
