All 6-Week Specialty Workshops are scheduled on Saturdays from 2 - 5 pm.

ATV & Film Combat Tactical Training
  • Experienced actors looking to take their skills to the next level.

Actors in this special class will experience a jam-packed two days of training in valuable firearm and hand-to-hand combat techniques.

Instructor Scott Oakley has designed the course not for the aspiring stuntperson, but, rather, for actors who wish to expand their casting possibilities. Many roles in action films and TV shows require knowledge of and comfort with the handling of firearms and the ability to project fighting expertise; and without those competencies, you are ineligible for those parts!

So get this training, and get those roles!
