On-Camera Dialogue Coaching -- Making Every Word Count
Most actors read lines. I teach you to THROW lines -- like darts. Short, sharp, landed. We study Casablanca, The Big Sleep, and The Maltese Falcon. Tip: The audience should feel like they're overhearing you, not listening to you.
Comedy Timing Workshop -- The Art of the Pause
Comedy lives in the silence between lines. I teach you where to breathe, where to look, and where to let the audience catch up. We study Some Like It Hot and Gentlemen Prefer Blondes frame by frame. Tip: If you're rushing the punchline, you don't trust the joke.
Method Acting Intensive -- Becoming the Character
Two-hour session. We don't rehearse lines -- we build a life. Where did your character grow up? What does their kitchen smell like? What song makes them cry? Once you know that, the lines say themselves. Stella Adler's approach: imagination over memory. Tip: If you're thinking about acting, you're not acting.
Board Breaking Kit (Pine + Rebreakable Plastic)
Stack of 1-inch pine boards plus rebreakable plastic boards in 5 difficulty levels. Tip: Breaking boards is not about strength. It's about focus, follow-through, and believing your hand goes THROUGH the board, not TO it.
Andes Mountain Crossing Expedition Training
High-altitude mountain warfare. Acclimatization, cold weather movement, river fording, maintaining combat effectiveness at altitude. I crossed a 13,000-foot pass in the wet season. A third of my army died. The rest won independence for a continent. Tip: The mountain does not care about your cause. Respect it or it kills you.
Nation-Building Workshop -- What Comes After the Revolution
Winning the war is the easy part. Building a nation from the wreckage is where most revolutions fail. Constitutions, governance, unifying factions that only agreed on the enemy. I freed five nations and watched them fracture. Tip: Plan for peace while you fight the war, or the peace will be worse than the war.
Plains War Shield (Buffalo Hide, Painted)
Thick buffalo hide shield, heat-shrunk and painted with personal medicine symbols. At proper thickness, buffalo hide stops arrows and can deflect a musket ball at distance. The painting is not decoration -- it is protection medicine. This is a training replica. Respect the tradition.
Single Combat Workshop -- The Duel
One-on-one combat with spear, sword, and shield. The Homeric duel: trash talk, javelin throw, close with swords, finish the job. I fought the greatest warriors of Troy in single combat and never lost. Tip: Study your opponent before you fight him. Watch how he moves, which foot he leads with, where his shield drops.
Action Scene Workshop -- How to Throw a Punch on Camera
Film fighting is NOT real fighting. I'll teach you camera angles, pull distances, reaction timing, and how to sell a hit. We'll choreograph a 30-second fight scene by the end of the session. Bruce Lee taught me the value of screen combat efficiency -- I'm passing it on.
Total Gym XLS (The Machine That Actually Works)
The same Total Gym model I use personally. Over 80 exercises on one machine using your own body weight. Incline bench, cable pulls, squats, core work. I'm not just the spokesman -- I've used this thing every day for 30 years.
Chinese Dao Sword (Northern Wei Style)
Single-edged dao, 32-inch blade, ring pommel. The standard infantry sword of the Northern Wei period. Optimized for cutting from horseback -- the slight curve pulls the blade through the target. I carried one for twelve years and it never failed me.
Heavy Bag (100lb Leather) + Speed Bag Station
Professional-grade heavy bag and speed bag mounted on a steel frame. The heavy bag teaches power. The speed bag teaches timing. Use both. I hit these every morning before sunrise and have since 1962.
