The Chaos Crew System.
Levulose Karate is a camera ready martial arts system designed to teach real martial arts to actors and performers. Developed by Chip Perro, it is a blend of Shotokan Karate, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and Tumbling. Levulose Karate combines practical and effective technique with stylish camera-ready choreography training. Levulose Karate is non-contact, with emphasis placed on form, distance, and timing.
The Chaos Crew Difference.
Most on-screen martial arts programs teach stage combat, tricking, and calisthenics, which appear artificial on camera and are ineffective in practice.
​
The most authentic on-screen martial artists are real martial artists. Chaos Crew teaches real martial arts using a curated system of moves that powerfully emote on camera.
The Chaos Karate Program.
Levulose Karate Classes are divided into four categories of training: Basics, Sparring, Forms, and Choreography.
​
Basics are the core component of Levulose, and include a hand to hand system, a grappling system, and a tumbling system.​ Sparring is fight training with one or multiple opponents. All sparring is non-contact, with a focus on technique, distance control, timing, and speed. Forms are a memorized series of movements, mirroring how fight choreography is learned and memorized.
​
Choreography connects all training together, and students learn how to build a fight scene from the ground up.
Uniforms, Belts, and Ranks.
Levulose utilizes a Kyu & Dan ranking system, ideal for actors seeking an official belt ranking for their resume or portfolio. Kyu exams are offered quarterly and Dan exams are offered annually.
