INSTRUCTOR: Jonathan Brown

The Fighting Body. 

Open to all abilities this class will help develop a full body mechanic to support your fight skills.

This class brings together the tutor’s experience and interest in stage combat, gymnastics, martial arts, physics and biomechanics.

We will be exploring how we can engage the whole body in simple unarmed combat movements by applying mechanical principles such as balance, leverage and power.

We will then consider how we can then employ this full body mechanic to enhance the story.

Jonathan first encountered stage combat in 2012 whilst studying drama at the University of EastAnglia. After graduating he moved to London where he continued his studies and became an Advanced Actor Combatant with the BASSC.

Jonathan is a veteran teaching assistant on Independent Drama’s BASSC courses, and has also worked at Moving Body Arts, the University of East Anglia and the British National Stage Combat Workshop.

Outside of stage combat Jonathan achieved a brown belt in judo, was a competing gymnast during his teenage years, and is a UKCC Level 2 gymnastics coach with more than a decade of teaching experience.
