Crash Mats & Safety Pads (Full Stunt Kit)
Eight crash mats in various sizes, knee pads, elbow pads, and a body harness. This is the safety equipment my stunt team uses for medium-height falls and wall work. Tip: Never do a stunt for the first time on camera. Rehearse until the fear becomes respect.
Prop Weapons Collection (Breakaway Chairs, Rubber Bottles, Foam Pipes)
Sugar glass bottles, balsa wood chairs, foam pipes, rubber bricks -- everything you need for a prop fight scene. I've used more chairs as weapons than any actor in history. They break beautifully on camera and barely sting in person. Barely.
Acrobatics Fundamentals -- Flips, Rolls, and Wall Runs
Peking Opera trained me in acrobatics from age six. I teach forward rolls, backward rolls, cartwheels, wall runs, and basic flips -- all on safety mats. You don't need to be young. You need to be willing. Sammo Hung and I still warm up with these moves. Tip: Your hands and feet should never land at the same time.
Minimalist Film Directing Workshop -- Two Takes and Print
I direct fast and quiet. No yelling, no ego, no fiftieth take. We shoot a short scene with available light, two cameras, and maximum two takes per setup. Tip: Trust your actors. Hire good people and get out of their way. The director's job is to create an environment where the truth can happen.
Jazz Piano Session -- Improvisation and Film Scoring
I've composed scores for many of my own films. Jazz is conversation -- you listen, you respond, you leave space. We work on basic piano improvisation over blues and jazz standards. No sheet music. Tip: The notes you DON'T play are just as important as the ones you do. Same in acting. Same in life.
Boxing Training Session -- Raging Bull Fundamentals
Jake LaMotta trained me for a year. I learned jab, cross, hook, uppercut, and the footwork of a middleweight. Boxing teaches you rhythm, distance, and controlled aggression -- all of which translate directly to screen performance. We wrap hands, hit bags, and spar light.
Boxing Gear Set (Gloves, Wraps, Heavy Bag)
16oz training gloves, 180-inch hand wraps, and a 70lb heavy bag with ceiling mount. The same weight class gear I trained with for Raging Bull. Hit the bag for twenty minutes and tell me acting isn't physical work.
Escape & Evasion Tactics -- Guerrilla Warfare Seminar
Half-day seminar on guerrilla tactics. How 70 escaped slaves outran and outfought professional legions. Route selection, foraging, decoy camps, fighting withdrawal. Tip: Speed is armor. If they cannot find you, they cannot kill you.
Intensity Workshop -- The Quiet Before the Explosion
Michael Corleone is quiet for two hours before he pulls the trigger. Tony Montana never stops burning. I teach both -- controlled intensity and unleashed fire. We work on building emotional pressure in a scene until the release is inevitable. Tip: The explosion means nothing without the silence that precedes it.
Shakespeare for Screen Actors -- Making the Bard Breathe
I directed and starred in Looking for Richard because Shakespeare terrified me -- and the only way past fear is through it. We work on verse-speaking, iambic pentameter as BREATH not math, and finding the modern man inside the Elizabethan language. Richard III is our text. Bring your courage.
Tango Dance Lesson -- The Scent of a Woman Masterclass
I learned the Argentine tango for Scent of a Woman and performed it blind. Tango is a conversation between two bodies -- lead, follow, improvise. I teach basic tango: the walk, the ocho, the cross. You'll dance in twenty minutes. Tip: Tango is not about steps. It's about the embrace.
Complete Shakespeare (Riverside Edition, Annotated)
My personal Riverside Shakespeare -- every play, every sonnet. Heavily annotated in pencil. Richard III has three colors of markup from three different productions. Hamlet has coffee stains from 1979. These margins contain forty years of wrestling with the greatest writer in the English language.
