Program Leaders
Living Wisdom Stuntastic Acting Camp
In this weeklong immersive summer camp, you'll learn how to safely practice and perform the basics of stage combat and stunts. You'll learn how to fall, roll, and even fight unarmed - all while prioritizing safety and fun!
This is an opportunity to learn how to control your body, move safely, express yourself, and make friends!
You'll have fun learning to tumble, fall, and fight like they do in the movies. Together, we'll watch influential films, and learn how to identify what makes a film (and a fight) compelling and effective. We will explore classic films and modern favorites. You'll never watch a superhero movie the same way again!
No prior experience in martial arts, sports, or acting is necessary.
Keshava was a professional stuntman and stunt-coordinator in the Los Angeles Film industry and used to help teach stage combat at the acting academy, Theatre of Arts.
Hazemach is a lifelong martial artist and competitive karate practitioner. He brings years of experience, teaching, and skill to our camp as well as a mind-blowing round-house kick. Don't believe us? See below for yourself!

Annual Travel: Global Connections Academy
Service • Adventure • Self-Discovery
Every year, Living Wisdom High School students embark on a two-week journey of service projects and dynamic adventures. As part of the curriculum, students engage in the planning and fundraising, learning key life skills such as initiative, team-work, finances, and organization. Additionally, the curriculum throughout the year ties into preparing the students for the trip, covering topics of culture, language, geography, and the chosen service project.
Travel opens doors outwardly and inwardly, expanding one's perspective, knowledge of the world, and inner self. For teens, experiencing new cultures can ignite a spark for service to others, exploration, and taking charge of one's life. Living Wisdom High School alumni all emphasize the life-changing impact made through their experiences of travel and service.
Not only do these adventures offer a way to explore new possibilities, but they are a time for developing existing interests and qualities. Students may discover a deep enthusiasm or inspiration that could direct their life’s focus. They might also achieve inner success by overcoming a long-held limitation or by cultivating a new quality. Whatever the specifics, growth happens both outwardly and inwardly on these amazing trips. Comfort zones expand to encompass more than could previously be imagined. Old selves are inspired to embrace more fully one’s highest potentials. These trips are jewels in the LWHS experience.
Students prepare for and experience a journey that is transformative, joyful, adventurous, heart-opening, eye-opening, and priceless.
In the past, students have traveled to...
Scotland • Nepal • South Africa • Hong Kong • India • Peru • Panamá • México • Hawaii • US National Parks • Italy • Slovenia • Quebec • Costa Rica

Students & Parents Say
The teachers never cease to amaze me as they constantly think outside the box helping each child, as an individual, learn how to live and navigate the rocky road of youth. Wish I'd been in such a school as a kid.”
