Kahana Stunt School

Kahana Stunt SchoolKahana Stunt School is a division of Stunt Action Coordinator’s, Inc. which was founded in 1972 and incorporated in 1974. SAC was opened to the public in 1977 by Mr. Kim Kahana Sr., a former member of the Stuntmen’s Association of Motion Pictures, Inc. It was his goal to provide comprehensive education for students wishing to enter into stunt work.
