About the class:
Improv is a great tool for anyone to have. Whether you're an actor, lawyer, comedian, entrepreneur, dog trainer, or whatever improv teaches you to think on your feet and allows you to adapt to unexpected events. Improv is all about reacting, staying focused and being in the moment. This class will introduce to the wonderful world of improvisation. Absolutely no experience required…and "NON-PERFORMERS" ARE VERY WELCOME! Zero Fear...ALL FUN! You will play and learn in a safe, positive and supportive environment. You'll loosen up and discover that super quick person that's living inside your heart. On the last class, we will have a casual improv showcase so that students can show off their newly found SKRILLS! All students will walk away with more confidence in themselves and will be ready to face whatever the world throws at them! LET'S PLAY!
