In this class, students will be introduced to basic concepts of comedy improv such as “yes and” (enthusiastically accepting what is offered), “group mind” (listening to each other and working as a team) and “space object work” (miming objects and environments). Using warm-up exercises and “structures”, students will be encouraged to trust their instincts, think on their feet and support each other. (It is said that a good improviser is one who makes his or her teammates look good.)  They will also laugh a lot!

No experience necessary. In-person classes in San Francisco East Bay.

“With improv, it’s a combination of listening & not trying to be funny”   Kristen Wiig
