After reading the first two chapters in our text book I was surprised of the dangers of basic stage combat techniques. But after 13 years of martial arts training and doing countless performances, I can agree that there are many dangers of doing combat without proper training. Being aware of others you are preforming with is also vital to a successful performance.
From my background as a third degree black belt in Tae Kwon Do, I can see the importance of knowing spatial awareness and distancing when doing any stage combat on or off the stage. While I have never seen any described injury happen in any of the performances I have been a part of, tho I do know that they do have a chance of happening if you are doing the technique wrong.
After reading the first two chapters I can agree that being properly trained in stage combat is very important if you want to avoid injury and want to make the performance as believable as possible.
