Elle Beyer
Elle Beyer’s career is basically a wild ride—think a mashup of sketch comedy beginnings in Sacramento, then leveling up to the LA scene, diving headfirst into action acting and stunts, even squeezing in a stint as a sports newscaster. She’s been all over: film, TV, live stage, not just in the States but hopping continents—India, China, Thailand, you name it. Folks call her “Ms. Elle” in martial arts circles, and honestly, it fits. She’s been at Kung Fu for over two decades but didn’t stop there—Tae Kwon Do, Karate, Tai Chi, American Kickboxing, Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, the whole buffet. And if that wasn’t enough, she’s also into parkour, belly dance, and aerial silks. Yeah, she does her own stunts—no joke.
She’s not just about being on screen, either. Elle co-owns and runs The Parkour and Performing Arts Center in Lincoln, California, since 2012—teaching, choreographing, pushing boundaries. She even co-created a self-defense system called “Survival Science,” which snagged an award in 2018 for best online curriculum. Pretty cool flex.
On the creative side, she starred in and choreographed the Native American Rock Opera “Something Inside is Broken”—which, by the way, hit the national stage on PBS in 2023-2024. She’s also got a big heart for storytelling, serving on the board of On Native Ground, a nonprofit that brings Indigenous stories to the spotlight. Basically, Elle’s the kind of person who never really sits still—and honestly, her resume reads like an action movie all by itself.
