Lets Do This Regularly
Incorporate a regular stage combat workshop into each term as enrichment and support for the performing arts faculty.
We here at Squire loving working with new students but it does mean that we don’t often get to progress past a taster session or single day’s masterclass. Every teacher can agree that the most rewarding part of the job is seeing their students flourish, gain confidence and master a skill. To that end we here at Squire would love to build stronger connections with the schools we work with and develop schemes of work that allow students to continue exploring stage combat and having it become a part of their work in drama.
With this is mind we have put together a few packages that offer multiple workshops throughout the three term school year. Multiple bookings means we can offer larger discounts and also tailor our work to suit your school’s needs.
3 Term Plan of Repeating Taster Workshops
3 for the price of 2
If you enjoyed our taster workshops then why not offer it out to the rest of the school? We can take 30 students at a time so by repeating our taster workshops, which range from 1 hour to a full day we can cater for every student in the school. No one is left out and everyone can have a lot of fun.
We will run a taster workshop of your choice “They Fight” or “Fight Club” and repeat the sessions 3 times across the school year.

6 Half Term Enrichment
6 Term Plan Of Repeating Workshops
1 Workshop Each Half Term
A great option to support enrichment within the performing arts. The 6 sessions can be used as tasters should the school wish. However the intention behind running a workshop each half term would be to build on the skills of a repeat group of students or provide rolling weekend activity for boarders. The sessions can explore more complex stage combat techniques as well as different martial styles and weapons. We can create a a bespoke program for you or follow a structure like the example below.
Session 1 Unarmed Combat:
The basics of stage combat and how to create a fight scene.
Session 2 Sword Play:
The basics of sword work and the creation of choreography
Session 3 Character and Story with a focus on Wrestling:
How do we tell a story with a fight. Advanced unarmed stage combat including throws, falls and slams
Session 4 Film vs Stage:

Session 5 Working with a script Staging Shakespeare:

Session 6 Toy Box:
