Screen Combat Training Programme

Five Stage Programme

Our screen combat programme is the most practical and comprehensive training course currently available. It is designed specifically for actors wishing to develop their skills into the action industry, supporting artists, special action performers and stunt professionals. Unlike other organisations that just teach a single fight routine for each weapon system, our approach is to teach a complete system which teaches actors how to apply mechanics and techniques they’ve been taught to adapt quickly and effectively to different filming environments and genres. The programme is divided into five stages and is completed by an advanced screen combatant fight test: Screen Combat Standard (1-day Intensive) Stage-1: Screen Fighter Stage-2: Screen Warrior Stage-3: Screen Champion Stage-4: Heroes & Villians REQUIREMENTS: No previous experience of stage or screen combat or any martial arts training is necessary to attend or complete our screen combat training programme, however, a reasonable level of fitness and mobility is essential.
