Why Take Classes With Us?
Our studio is founded on the belief that student progress comes both from personal discovery and from teachers/facilitators who provide clear instruction and feedback. We not only want our students to learn the core skills of improvisation, but we also want them to improve their skills over their time with us. Because of that, we offer learning opportunities that students won't find anywhere else.
All of our students will receive the following:
A safe, nurturing, and supportive environment
10 students max per class, so everyone gets lots of attention
Flexible class options to suit your budget & schedule
Coaching and check-ins during & after each game to help make sure you've understood the breakthroughs
Blackboard discussions during class, when necessary, to help visual and analytical learners
Closing each class by recognizing our own wins
Participating - for those who wish! - in our student showcases
