Horse Selection & Care Workshop
How to choose, care for, and bond with a war horse. Hoof inspection, feeding on campaign, recognizing lameness, field veterinary basics. My horse carried me through twelve years of war. Your horse is your life. Treat it better than you treat yourself.
Stella Adler's Acting Technique (First Edition)
Stella Adler's own handbook, first edition. She studied with Stanislavski in Paris -- the only American actor who did. This book is the foundation. Strasberg got the attention, but Adler got the method right.
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.
Naginata Training -- The Warrior Woman's Weapon
The naginata -- a curved blade on a long pole, the traditional weapon of the onna-bugeisha (female warrior). Sweeping cuts, thrusts, and the devastating ankle strikes that unhorse mounted samurai. I will teach you the kata and free sparring. Tip: Reach defeats strength. Keep them at naginata distance and they cannot touch you with a sword.
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.
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.
Tizona & Colada (Replica Swords of El Cid)
Replicas of my two legendary swords. Tizona -- the firebrand, taken from King Bucar of Morocco. Colada -- won in single combat. Both are straight double-edged blades, 36 inches, designed for mounted and foot combat. A knight carries two swords because battles are long and edges dull.
Shawnee War Tomahawk & Trade Knife Set
Forged iron tomahawk (throwing and hand combat) and trade knife in leather sheath. The tomahawk is balanced for both throwing and fighting. The trade knife is the everyday tool of the woodlands. I will teach you the standing throw at 15 paces and the fighting grip for close work.
Mounted Combat Training -- Fight From the Horse
Bareback mounted combat with lance, bow, and war club. The Lakota fought from horseback as naturally as walking. Hanging off the side of the horse as a shield, shooting under the neck, the full-speed charge. Tip: Your war paint is your identity. I painted a lightning bolt on my face and hail spots on my body. The enemy should know who is coming for them.
Wind Tunnel (Tabletop, Educational Model)
Scaled replica of the wind tunnel Wilbur and I built from a starch box. Test wing shapes, measure lift and drag. We tested 200 airfoils in two months with a rig like this. Every aircraft flying today traces back to data from this box. Includes smoke wand for flow visualization.
Tang Soo Do Fundamentals -- From White to Green Belt
Traditional Korean martial arts training. We start with basic stances, blocks, and kicks. No flashy nonsense -- just solid technique that works. I'll teach the same forms I learned at Osan Air Base in 1958. Tip: Your roundhouse kick should come from the hip, not the knee. Most beginners kick with their leg. Champions kick with their whole body.
Classic Screenplay Collection (Bound Scripts)
Bound shooting scripts of Chinatown, Annie Hall, Thelma & Louise, American Beauty, and The Shawshank Redemption. These are the scripts I used in my workshops for decades. Read them with a highlighter. Study how they handle plot points. Tip: Read scripts, not books about scripts.
