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.
Aerodynamics Workshop -- Why Things Fly
Hands-on session. We'll build and test paper gliders, balsa models, and wing sections. You'll learn Bernoulli's principle the way it actually works (not the oversimplified textbook version). Tip: Lift isn't magic. It's geometry plus airspeed. Get the angle of attack wrong and the wing stalls. I learned that at Kitty Hawk in ways that bruised.
Italian Comedy Masterclass -- Commedia dell'Arte to Screen
From Harlequin to Totò to Marcello Mastroianni -- Italian comedy is a tradition spanning centuries. I teach the physical comedy, the timing, and the heartbreak underneath the laughter. We work scenes from Marriage Italian Style and Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow. Marcello was my greatest screen partner. The chemistry was real -- the love was professional.
Ballroom Dance Masterclass -- Elegance in Motion
Waltz, foxtrot, quickstep, and the Viennese waltz. I teach you to move across a dance floor as if the floor were made of clouds. Posture, frame, lead-and-follow, and musicality. Tip: Your partner should feel weightless in your arms. If they feel heavy, you're leading too hard.
Dance Cane (Bamboo, Performance Grade)
A performance-weight bamboo cane -- the same kind I used in Puttin' on the Ritz and Top Hat. A cane transforms a walk into a performance. We practice twirls, tosses, and the gentleman's lean. Lighter than it looks, stronger than you'd think.
1930s Dance Costume Collection (Gowns, Heels, Feathers)
Three replica gowns from the Astaire-Rogers films: the feathered dress from Top Hat (it shed everywhere -- Fred hated it and I loved it), the satin from Swing Time, and the beaded from Shall We Dance. Includes matching dance heels. Handle with care -- the beading is hand-sewn.
Action Film Preparation Workshop -- Body as Weapon
For The Matrix, I trained four months. For John Wick, six months. I teach you the actor's approach to combat training: not to fight, but to look like you've been fighting your whole life. Jiu-jitsu, judo throws, gun handling, and the physical stamina to do take after take. Tip: Train until the movement disappears and only the character remains.
Three-Gun Tactical Training Workshop
Pistol, rifle, and shotgun -- safe handling, reload drills, transition drills, and shoot-on-the-move technique. I trained at Taran Tactical for John Wick and now I compete in 3-gun matches for fun. Safety is absolute. We start with fundamentals and build up. Tip: Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.
ARCH Motorcycle Experience (Custom KRGT-1)
A ride on the KRGT-1 -- the motorcycle I co-designed with Gard Hollinger at ARCH Motorcycle Company. S&S 2032cc V-twin, billet aluminum frame, handcrafted everything. This isn't a rental. It's a supervised ride experience on a closed course. Because some things you have to feel to understand.
Vintage Qipao Collection (1920s-1940s Silk Dresses)
Five hand-tailored silk qipao dresses in the styles I wore on screen and in life. Each one is a work of art -- embroidered, fitted, and designed to make a statement. I was the most photographed Asian woman in the world. These dresses are why. Borrow for shoots, exhibitions, or costume reference.
Sketchbook & Colored Pencil Set (Fellini's Dream Kit)
Large-format sketchbook (A3) and 72 professional colored pencils -- the same tools I used for my dream journals. The sketchbook has thick paper that handles ink and pencil. Keep it by your bed. Draw before coffee. The dreams are freshest in the first five minutes.
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.
