Always support your team!</h2><h2>Improv #1 Skill: LISTENING</h2><p>Improv and Stand-Up Comedy help students discover their best selves building self confidence, creative writing, critical thinking and public speaking. We offer weekly classes Winter, Spring and Fall, plus Summer Camps. We also have teachers at schools, camps and community centers on weekends and after school. Each session starts with Improvisation, playing games that are a ton of fun while teaching valuable life skills. These are the same games we play with corporate groups to develop better leaders, team building, sales, service etc. For our public sessions we include Stand-Up Comedy, taking stories of experience and observation, then crafting original comedy routines. Each session ends a performance showcase of original and improvised comedy skits. The classes and workshops integrate perfectly with cultural arts, language arts and character building/guidance programming.</p><h2><strong>DAILY HOMEWORK</strong></h2><p><strong>SMILE</strong></p><p>Start every day with a smile! Physically smiling makes us feel great. Usually we smile when someone makes us feel good. It works both days. You can actually loosen stiff muscles and minor aches inside and out. Also, when you lead with a smile most smile back. Ignore that one judgmental hiding in the corner. They will judge you no matter what you do. If you want most folks to smile at you, LEAD BY EXAMPLE!</p><p><strong>EXPERIENCE and OBSERVE YOU WORLD</strong></p><p>Every thing you need for comedy is right in front of you. LIVE with wide open eyes and ears. At school &amp; home, on the subway, in the park, at the store etc etc etc things happen to you and to others around you. </p><p><strong>RECORD YOUR WORLD</strong></p><p>Keep a journal. What every observe and experience, write it down. Also record your process. Describe every Improv game you play in your own words. EVERY time you get off stage, record how that experience happened. Process your world, your anxieties, fears, joys etc. Getting things out of your head, frees you to focus in the moment. </p><h2>Teacher: WALT FRASIER</h2><p>Walt Frasier has been with EIGHT IS NEVER ENOUGH Improv Comedy since the beginning in  2002. In that time he has hosted over 5000 shows and workshops in Times Square and touring Nationwide.
