This class will cover the basic techniques needed to create a safe and effective fight for the stage. Students will fall down, toss each other around, pull hair and throw punches. Particular attention will be paid to the safeties required to perform fights as well as how to connect stage combat techniques to text, character and intention. Course will conclude with a fight performance, choreographed by the instructor, and set to a student selected scene. Students that pass will receive a Society of American Fight Director’s certification in Unarmed - An excellent caveat for an actor, stage manager, teacher or director’s professional resume.
