Back to One: A Fight Scene Introspective

A seminar exploring the difference in roles of ND positions and stunt doubles in a 1 vs 1 or 1 vs multiple opponent situation, preparing for the ever-changing scenarios encountered on set, and becoming a better fight partner overall

Back by popular demand! We’re planning an expansive and informative 8-hour day packed with group training and exercises to advance the way you approach fight scenes on set.

This isn’t your typical fight workshop - we won’t be teaching specific weapons or intense choreography. Instead, this seminar will be focused on exploring the different ways a performer should approach a fight scene as a stunt double, an ND performer, being one of many in a fight, and being the one at the center of a fight against many.
