The Story
Built from the ground up for the screen
Nathan Newman is a MEAA graded stunt performer whose training background spans Muay Thai, wrestling, and tumbling — three of the most physically demanding disciplines in the stunt performer's toolkit. That combination gives him a genuinely versatile movement base that translates directly to the breadth of work a working stunt performer needs.
At Fight Creative, Nathan brings a practitioner's perspective to his curriculum — teaching from the same foundation he built his own career on, with a focus on the physical development and technical precision that coordinators look for when casting stunt work.
His series covers the physical conditioning and technique fundamentals that underpin high-performance stunt work, taught by someone actively working in the industry.
