Do you want to break out of your improv rut? Or, would you like to try improv for the first time? This class will help push you out of your comfort zone…in a good way! You’ll gain the confidence to say “yes” to your own ideas by making physical, vocal, and emotional choices that build believable characters and heighten your scenes. You’ll also learn how to get out of your head and start your scenes using strong initiations and unique points of view. Whether you are a veteran improviser or are just beginning to do scene work, this class will help you practice living in the moment. Not only is improv fun, but it is also a tool for life: it can make you a better listener, public speaker, and creative thinker.
Please note: This class is open to all levels of experience. Ages 18+ only.
