The Stunt Kids Association
of Hollywood
D'Janine Lasky is the CEO and head stunt coordinator & trainer for the Stunt Kids Association of Hollywood. She is a seasoned veteran with over 30 years of professional experience in training actors in stunt work for film, television, theater, live shows and has had numerous stunt kids compete at National competitions and the Junior Olympic Games hosted by the U.S.A.G., the A.A.U., and the U.S.T.A.
Over
the past 30 years, numerous production companies, talent agents, individual members of the Stuntmen's Association of Motion Pictures and S.W.A.M.P.
have hired our stunt trainers for private training on an individual basis. Training includes power
tumbling, stunt tumbling, parkour & free-running, tricking, mini trampoline stunts, air ram, high falls, weapons, combat, acrobatics and more.
All of the stunt trainers and coordinators
on staff are reliable, creative professionals who are safety certified and very committed to the projects they are involved with. Training is always done in a "safe & sane" manner without compromising safety by taking short cuts.
Stunt training for kids under the age of 18 (depending on their skill level) include semi-high falls, stunt tumbling on air track & air barrel, fight choreography, mini-trampoline stunts, full size trampoline, bungee pulls, air ram, fencing, martial arts, physical comedy, break-away props and vaudeville stunts. The Stunt Kids Association of Hollywood also offers training in action acting!
Individual membership in the Stunt Kids Association of Hollywood is open to working actors and those who work strictly as stunt performers. Kids who have grown up in the Stunt Kids Association often stay and continue their membership in the adult's "stunt kid" division. Most of the adult actors play in 18 to look younger roles, however, there isn't a cap on age just as long as the adult is a "kid" at heart and doesn't mind performing in live stunt shows or performing in the Hollywood Christmas Parade.
