Biography

Jeremy's Stage Combat career began as a student to Equity Fight Director and BADC examiner Andrew Ashenden who was the fight master of Guildford School of Acting.  He graduated from GSA as one of the broadest qualified stage combatants in the colleges history, with BADC certificates including 6 single weapon specialisations and a recommendation with examiners star at advanced level.

Jeremy then went on to apprentice RWCMD (Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama) fight master Kevin Mccurdy for two and a half arduous years before completing his teachers exam.  During this time he was lucky enough to be influenced by some great Stage Combat teachers, special mention should go to Renny Kuprinski, Ian McCracken, Seb Morgan and John Greenwood, one of the founders of the Society of British Fight Directors.  This broad training enabled Jeremy to develop a style of teaching focused on marrying the improvement of students ability to move in a new, fluid way with a solid, strong technical foundation which can be useful in all other forms of physical acting. 

Jeremy regularly runs his own workshops as well as tailoring courses to the needs of various youth theatre groups and schools around the country.  He has taught at a growing number of drama schools including GSA, RWCMD, The Bridge Theatre Training Company, BADA and the Oxford School of Drama.  He has also taught two years running at the Cardiff Combat workshop at St. Donats Castle.  He is also a proud member of the Academy of Performance Combat.
