Born and raised in Edmonton Alberta Canada, Chelsea studied theatre at the University of Alberta and graduated with a BA in Drama in 2006. While attending the U of A she discovered stage combat and began training with Fight Directors Canada (FDC). She has since gone on to more training and certification with FDC, The Society of American Fight Directors (SAFD), The Society of Australian Fight Directors inc. (SAFDi), The British Academy of Stage and Screen Combat (BASSC) and The Nordic Stage Fight Society (NSFS). In recent years Chelsea has been working to translate her foundation in theatre into work in the thriving and vibrant film and tv industry in Vancouver. She has booked roles in several short films and is working to put her stage combat skills to use breaking into stunt work.
