Humanitarian Storytelling Workshop -- Making the World Listen
How to tell stories that move people to action. I learned this at UNICEF -- you can show a million statistics and nothing changes. Show one child's face and the whole world responds. We work on narrative, photography, and the courage to witness.
Phalanx Formation Workshop -- Team Combat Drills
Group session (8-16 people). Learn the Spartan phalanx -- shield wall, spear discipline, advance and retreat as one body. Tip: The phalanx is not a formation. It is a contract. Every man protects the man beside him. Break the contract and the line breaks.
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.
Screen Presence Workshop -- Less Is Everything
I teach you what Billy Wilder taught me: the camera sees everything you're thinking. You don't need to show it -- you need to FEEL it. We work on stillness, listening, and the art of the reaction shot. Tip: Most young actors try to DO too much. Stop doing. Start being.
Leadership Under Pressure Workshop -- Small Group
Small group (max 8). How to lead when everything is against you. No resources, no title, no authority -- just the trust of the people next to you. We use historical scenarios and modern case studies. Tip: People follow courage, not rank.
Spartan Agoge Fitness Program -- 12-Week Conditioning
The agoge started at age 7. Yours starts today. Running, wrestling, cold water immersion, minimal food, maximum effort. Twelve weeks of progressive conditioning based on actual Spartan training methods. Tip: Comfort is the enemy of capability.
Scene Study Workshop -- Reacting, Not Acting
Bring a scene partner. We work two scenes in two hours. I watch, I redirect, I provoke. Most actors prepare what they're going to say. Wrong. Prepare to LISTEN. The other actor's lines should change something in you every single time.
Action Scene Workshop -- How to Throw a Punch on Camera
Film fighting is NOT real fighting. I'll teach you camera angles, pull distances, reaction timing, and how to sell a hit. We'll choreograph a 30-second fight scene by the end of the session. Bruce Lee taught me the value of screen combat efficiency -- I'm passing it on.
Gladiator Combat Training -- Arena Fundamentals
One-on-one combat training with wooden practice weapons. Gladius technique, shield work, footwork, reading your opponent. Tip: Never attack first. Let them commit, then make them pay for it. We train until your body remembers what your mind forgets under pressure.
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.
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.
Voice & Accent Transformation Coaching
My accent is mid-Atlantic -- a blend of Bristol working class and American sophistication that exists nowhere in nature. I invented it. I teach you to craft your own vocal persona: pitch, pace, resonance, and diction. Your voice is your calling card. Make it memorable. Tip: Record yourself and listen. Then record yourself pretending to be the person you want to be. The gap between them is your work.
