Stage Combat (unarmed) with Sean Croft

Stage combat (unarmed) with Sean Croft (4hr)

Overview:

Explore unarmed combat and develop a selection of moves to combine in to a choreographed sequence!
A well-executed fight scene can make stage combat look easy but, much like dancing, it must be intricately choreographed and extensively rehearsed, to provide that authentic feel while remaining safe.

Who is this for?

Actors, performers, comedians, amateurs and everyone in between.
