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.

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.

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.

Ballet Fundamentals for Actors -- Grace in Motion

Four positions, posture, and how to walk like you own the room. I studied ballet to be a dancer, but it made me an actress. Every movement on screen is a dance -- even sitting down. Sonia Gaskell would say: the spine tells the story.

Samurai Screen Combat Workshop -- The Way of the Blade

Katana work for film. Proper draw, strike, and resheath. We use bokken (wooden swords) first, then move to iaito (blunt steel). I'll teach you the difference between real kenjutsu and what looks good on camera. Kurosawa insisted on realism -- the audience can feel a fake swing. Tip: Speed comes from relaxation, not tension.

Bokken Set (Oak Practice Swords, Pair)

Two red oak bokken -- standard katana length. These are the training weapons I used before every Kurosawa film. They teach you distance, timing, and respect for the blade. Tip: If you're gripping too tight, you're already losing.

Cold-Water Swimming Coaching -- Morning Discipline

I swam in the Long Island Sound every morning, year-round, into my nineties. Cold water wakes up everything -- your body, your mind, your courage. I'll teach you to breathe, to enter the water without flinching, and to find the joy in discomfort. Tip: The first thirty seconds are terrible. After that, you're alive.

Kung Fu Comedy Workshop -- Fighting and Falling with Style

I'll teach you to take a hit, sell a fall, and make the audience laugh while you're in pain. We use chairs, ladders, and tables as props -- everything in the room is a weapon and a punchline. Tip: Always show the whole body. Wide shots let the audience see the skill. Close-ups are for actors who can't fight.

Stunt Safety & Fall Training Workshop

Before you can do a stunt, you need to know how to fall. We cover breakfalls, rolls, wall hits, and stair tumbles on mats. I've broken nearly every bone in my body -- YOU don't have to. Safety isn't about being careful. It's about being PREPARED. We drill until the landing is automatic.

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.

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.

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.
