Here's
what some of our students had to say about our
classes: I
had a great time in improv class studying under you, it
was a lot of fun and a great learning
experience. I plan on using what I learned in
the future. Ralph
Padierne
Improv Acting 1 The
course taught me a lot of the fundamentals of
improvisation. It constantly made me think out
of the box and made me realize that there is a
technique to making things up and making them
interesting and worthy of performance on stage.
The best part was the constant opportunity to
participate in hands-on exercises with the rest of the
class along with the constant support of my classmates
and instructor. I didn't hesitate to take the
Improv 2 class after I was done with Improv 1 and I'm
looking forward to take the newly offered Sketch
Writing course. Manny
