Ivan Perhat

Actor, Olympic Swimmer and Martial Artist, Ivan Perhat's accomplishments include being the 2nd Croatian in history to swim the 100 meter freestyle in just 47 seconds. Ivan moved with his family to Los Angeles at the young age of 7 in order to escape the Yugoslavian civil war. At the age of 15 Ivan found solace in swimming, which quickly grew into his passion. Ivan has always set the bar high with each of his ventures, first breaking regional and state swim records in high school, and then continuing on to lead the University of Washington's Swim Team as the main freestyle sprinter while graduating with his Bachelor's of Science in Geophysics. Ivan then went back to Croatia to train and compete on the world's stage at 2008 Olympics in Beijing, 2008 European Championships in Rijeka, 2009 Mediterranean Games in Perscara, and the 2008 World Cup Championship Series. Muay Thai, Jiu Jitsu, and weapon manipulation were the next passions to catch his eye once he was back in his second home, Los Angeles. Ivan began training under masters Willie Laureano and then transitioned to train under Mark Kimura at "The Yard", which is where he presently trains in Muay Thai. In recent years, the 6'5" athlete has geared his undeniable focus and determination to acting in order to become the next action star and set an example that all goals are attainable with the proper work ethic and vision. He's appeared in various action and adventure films such as Fight or Die (2017), Paradise (2017), and Paranormal Monster's Society (2018).
