Learn Improv!
Summer Classes Now Open For Registration

Improv class is an experience like no other. It's a space where you can let go of your inhibitions, be vulnerable, and take risks without fear of judgment. Through the use of improv games and exercises, our classes help students develop skills such as active listening, collaboration, and spontaneity while also enhancing confidence and creativity. Our improv classes are not just about being funny, although we are teaching improv comedy, they are about learning to be present in the moment and building authentic connections with others. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced performer, improv offers the opportunity to grow on stage and beyond.
