Announcement 📣 We are pleased to announcement that Beeca has now become a permanent APC teacher! We are thrilled to have her 😍 Becca started her stage combat journey back in 2018 and began her teaching journey in 2022. An experienced stage combat performer and actor combatant, she has enjoyed bringing her fighting to her stage work. Becca has also spent time assisting at Rebel Action, the Royal Shakespeare Company, LAMDA and Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama. Founding her own company @brazensteel1 in 2024, she has helped to guide a plethora of students from their first taste of combat to daring fight scenes and everything in between. Becca’s teaching style is patient, empathetic, and encouraging; she is committed to helping each student as an individual to grow and achieve. Now as a teacher with the Academy of Performance Combat Becca is paying homage to her childhood self who used to beg her parents for swords from National Trust gift shops. After all, who doesn’t want to play with sword for a living? ⚔️💥 We can’t wait to see what she does next!!
