Stage Combat
with Victoria Goring
Trained in Stage Combat, Corporeal Mime, Dance,
Pilates and a certified Fitness Trainer, Victoria is dedicated
to assisting each actor to move their best, and to love to move.
As a Fight Director, Victoria has codified a technique allowing
actors to work safely and efficiently without trepidation. Victoria
empowers actors, teaching them how to create their own moves for
naturalistic stage violence. Each move is connected to storytelling,
so that the actor moves with purpose and emotional intent.
As a woman, Victoria is a fun instructor who represents the least
threatening teacher possible for what can be an intimidating part
of a production, adding her love of action to each production.
Victoria can direct a scene, make your stage violence safe, or
teach a workshop demystifying stage combat so that your production
can create unique stage violence.
