A 9-week workshop series taught my professional improvisors culminating in a showcase on the BABS Comedy Club Stage!
Our improv workshop series is taught professional improv comedians who also have decades of experience in both performance and education! We lead our classes in both short-form and long-form improv exercises to help you build skills such as confidence, active listening, strengthening your collaborative spirit, creativity, physicality, and comedy performance– all in a fun, supportive, and silly environment!
