If you could be trained to do something as part of an acting role, what would you want to do?

Are there action/fighting movies that feature grappling? I'm not a huge action movie guy so I'm not sure. The 6 or 7 Brazilian movies I've seen were all dramas.
That's a pretty cool martial art, though.

Piano

Yeah I'd love to learn piano!
A lot of people find it long and boring but I loved "The Pianist" with Adrien Brody. He actually learned the play for the role and his performance when the German soldier catches him in the house was amazing.

Tim Whatley was a student of mine. And if we weren't at this (funeral? wedding?) I'd punch your teeth out, you anti-dentite b*stard!
