Summary
"Stage Combat Arts is a unique workbook for those studying and teaching combat movement, detailing foundational techniques of both stage-combat and actor-movement disciplines. Ideal for assisting teachers in the development of course material to incorporate stage-combat techniques into an actor-training curriculum, it is rich in exercises--complemented by online video tutorials--to integrate stage combat with the actor's process of developing a fully embodied awareness of the physical life of the character"--Page 4 of cover.
