WHAT PEOPLE SAY

DAVID BENNIE, stuntman, actor, dancer

I would definitely recommend Dark Roc, mainly because it's at a level where you find yourself in a professional setting, around professional people, and it reaches the point where you realise that you are being taught by instructors who are aware of what they're doing, so it's where I was like, okay, I know I'm gonna progress from this

CHRIS BERADI, stunt trainee, artist

Being that I was aware that all the instructors were top professionals, I knew it was going to be hard and it was going to be a bit like doing drills, but that's exactly what I wanted and I got it.

So I do feel a lot more confident

Jason Hoang, actor, spact performer

DARK ROCs attention to detail on their knowledge of weapons safety, the professionalism and knowledge of all crew members exceeds most firearms courses I’ve been to in the UK for tv and film. The level of expertise and professionalism displayed by the instructors was top-notch. I came away not only with new skills but also a deeper knowledge that I'm excited to apply in my work. Highly recommend this training for anyone in the industry! 

Lee Simpson, safety rigger for film

It's really impressive to see that you can upskill individuals in such a short piece of time. The facility is great, the teaching is fantastic. I just look forward to coming back to more training.

Will B, actor, mocap

I attended the firearms proficiency and safety course and can honestly say the training was next level. The facilities were amazing and the instructors were on point and really focused on me as an individual as well as a team. I have since gone on to secure more work and cant wait to return for more training.
