Tim has traveled all over the US conducting weekend group seminars.  Instruction consists of getting the students body in line so you can move at your maximum potential while also keeping the sequences safe and believable.  The correct placement of the body makes for the best balance and timing of the fight.  This will increase the tempo so fights can be done with safe violence and better creativity.  At the end of the session, you will be able to put together more fluid creative fight sequences.
