Because of her highly athletic background, Tarah entered into the exciting world of stunts. She
enjoys supplementing her theatrical work on film with stunt work and find it a useful skill to have,
being able to often perform her own on-camera action, as well as act. It began with gymnastics
practices, sports acro, & hand-to-hand balancing with friends, but has turned into a significant
part of her career & source of film opportunity as well. Tarah took her natural abilities & began
training. Fight work, rock climbing, trampoline, trapeze, high-wire work, high falls, stair falls, stunt
driving, air rams, mini tramp, & contortion. Some of her film and Television highlights include:
