Every Wednesday there will be a one hour class starting at 4pm for teens ages 13 to 18, and at 7pm for kids ages 8 to 12. The class will cost $15 per student. This will be a beginner's stage combat course where students learn the basics of all aspects of unarmed stage combat, falling, grappling, punches, kicks, etc. Limited armed combat will also be covered.

Acting class utilizes fun and exciting theater games to sharpen the tools that we need as actors to perform efficiently and effectively on stage. Focus, quick thinking, problem solving, character development, and improvisational skills are only a few examples of the abilities we will be targeting in this class. In addition, scene study will also be covered in this course, as students will be given scenes to work on with a partner in class. The goal of this class is to improve on a young actors confidence as well as enhancing the techniques they use that will make for an impressive and memorable performance on stage.
