Welcome to WARRIOR QUEST - Our dynamic and immersive training experience fuses classical warrior arts with modern stunt performance. This uniquely integrated system blends the fighting skills of the past with the action demands of today, forging students into authentic martial artists and cinematic action performers through a single, transformative journey. 

CLASSICAL ARTS

  This foundation of the Warrior Quest program draws from the time-honored traditions of Japan’s Ninja and Samurai. Our Classical Arts focus on swordsmanship, unarmed combat, and a wide array of weapon systems. These techniques are taught not only as highly effective methods of real-world combat but also as stylized movements adapted for the art of Chanbara - the theatrical swordplay made famous by samurai cinema. 

ACTION ARTS

  The Action Arts component prepares students for the high impact demands of modern stunt performance. This includes comprehensive training in fight choreography, breakfalls, ladder and stair falls, wirework, firearm handling, low falls, ejections, breakaways, obstacle work, and more. The curriculum is designed to encourage innovation and creativity, seamlessly blending practical stunt work with cinematic storytelling.

THE FACILITY

   We are located at: 4086 Youngfield Street, Wheatridge CO 80033. Half the facility is dedicated to film production and the other half is divided into two training zones; the Traditional Dojo and The Warehouse, each designed to reflect and enhance the unique demands of the expansive WARRIOR QUEST curriculum. 

TRADITIONAL DOJO

The first area is a traditional Japanese-style dojo, a focused, disciplined space where the ancient skills of the Ninja and Samurai are brought to life. This hall features weapon racks lined with swords, staves, spears, and halberds; archery targets for precision training; and tameshigiri (test-cutting) stands for swordsmanship drills using live blades. With an atmosphere that honors tradition, this space is where students refine their technique, focus their spirit, and deepen their connection to classical martial disciplines. 

THE WAREHOUSE

The second area is the industrial-style environment built to simulate the unpredictable realities of modern action performance. Equipped with 55-gallon drums, crates, ladders, pallets, and scaffolding, this space is where students train for dynamic action sequences. It’s a modular playground for developing real-world spatial awareness, movement innovation, and stunt integration, ideal for practicing falls, rolls, ejections, breakaways, and close-quarters combat choreography. 

TRAINING SCHEDULE

 Warrior Quest training sessions take place on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday evenings from 7:00 PM to 9:00 PM, and Sunday mornings from 11:00 AM to 1:00 PM - offering 8 hours of instruction per week and approximately 34 to 36 hours per month, depending on the calendar. Our high-volume training schedule is designed to accelerate skill development and ensure consistent progress across both Classical Martial Arts and Action Performance disciplines. To keep training balanced and comprehensive, subject matter shifts weekly, exposing members to the full spectrum of our integrated curriculum. 

CLASSICAL GARB

For Classical Arts, students are required to wear a traditional Japanese-style uniform appropriate to the discipline being studied. Bloused pants, jacket or vest with logo, sash, and indoor split-toe shoes. In addition, each student must acquire subject-specific practice weapons, which will vary based on the techniques being taught. 

STUNT CLOTHING

 For Action Arts, students may wear sweatpants and solid-colored t-shirts with no brand logos to maintain a professional, uniform appearance. Students must also bring a pad bag containing all necessary protective gear, including knee pads, elbow pads, wrist guards, back pads, and any specialized equipment needed.

TUITION

  Our monthly tuition is set at $225.00, which breaks down to roughly $12 per session - a tremendous value for the level of professional instruction, hands-on training, and access to specialized training apparatus and film gear.

SPECIALIZED STUNTS

 There are a variety of Advanced Stunt skills that must be practiced in controlled environments outside the main training facility. These include high-intensity stunts such as car hits, high falls, body burns, motorcycle stunts, car crashes, ziplines, explosions, water-based stunts, and more. To ensure the highest level of instruction and safety, these workshops are led by industry veterans with extensive professional experience.

THEATRICAL FIREARMS

We host a wide range of Theatrical Firearms programs. Fundamental handling and safety courses are available to both actors and action performers, but we also hold more advanced workshops for our on-going members that cover, weapon retention, disarms, range training, team tactics, period weapons, and how to take bullet hits (squibs).

MOTION CAPTURE

Dive into the thrilling world of Motion Capture through intensive 2-3 day workshops where students practice the arts of acting, fight choreography, stunts, and creature work, all tailored for film, television, and gaming. Each workshop serves as a gateway to new dimensions of motion capture, equipping performers with the skills and creativity needed to thrive in this cutting-edge industry. 

PRACTICAL EFFECTS

 Our Practical Effects Workshops provide hands-on training in the core techniques used to create real-world effects for film and television. Students will explore pneumatic systems for controlled blasts and movement, mechanical effects like breakaways and rigged collapses, and chemical effects for smoke, fire, and weather simulations. These workshops emphasize safe, effective methods of impactful physical effects. 

SPECIAL MAKEUP FX

   Our Special Makeup FX Workshops cover the full process of creating cinematic transformations. Students learn face casting, sculpting, and mold making, followed by crafting and applying wound appliances, half masks, and full creature masks. These courses blend artistry and technique, preparing students to create everything from subtle injuries to elaborate fantasy characters. 

ELEMENTAL ACTING

Elemental Acting is a revolutionary workshop designed to deepen your craft by aligning your physical presence, emotional range, and inner awareness with the five elemental forces described by Samurai master Miyamoto Musashi - Earth, Water, Fire, Wind, and Celestial.   In this intensive workshop, actors will explore how each element shapes intention, movement, and voice, building a powerful internal foundation that supports compelling on-screen performances.
