The Course
Level 1 – Suitable for all experience levels
This class will introduce you to the world of “Yes And” and help you create comedy on the spot. Improv is all about collaboration and saying yes to people’s ideas. Follow your spontaneity, take risks, trust your gut and you’ll be surprised at what comedy you can create. Improv is not just about being funny; improv is an amazing way to help people dealing with social anxiety or for people that want some practice feeling a little more free in their public speaking. Through games and exercises we’ll create stories, characters and learn the fundamentals of improvisation.
The course runs for 8 consecutive weeks on a Saturday, 2-4pm. Once you have completed this course you will be able to move up to our Level 2 course.
