Stage & Screen Combat
For the past sixteen years Keith has been
drawing upon his unique skill set and expertise
to provide Spotlight-recognised stage combat courses, workshops, and in-house fight choreography for some
of the UK's top acting schools and Universities.
With a strong emphasis on the importance
of health & safety in 21st century performance
practice, and a breadth of knowledge in
many different martial styles and weapon
systems, both historical and modern,
he works with actors and performers to
explore stage combat through logical
movements and physical awareness
Having previously trained and worked as a
professional actor himself, Keith collaborates
with performers and directors to create
a believable story through staged violence
Alongside his regular teaching Keith also runs
workshops and masterclasses across the UK,
offering classes in unarmed combat to
actors and performers aged 14 and over,
in addition to short-courses in swordplay
and weapon work for students aged and 18
and above.
