Improv
Have you ever watched an improv group and thought “How do they do that?” The skills needed are teachable, and what you learn from improv can be used on and off stage! In this class, students will learn the fundamental rules of improvisational performance. Each student will have the opportunity to workshop their skills in an open, welcoming, “no-bad-ideas” environment. Learn how trusting your instincts, listening to your scene partners and working collaboratively can create surprising (and often hilarious) results.
Unlocking the Mystery: The Teachable Artistry of Improv
Throughout the course, discover the essence of instinctual trust. Hone your active listening abilities. Master the fine art of collaborative teamwork. Witness firsthand how these elements interplay to craft astonishing and often uproarious outcomes. This learning journey is an exploration of the unexpected, an endeavor that fuels personal and artistic growth.
In the realm of improvisation, the unexpected becomes your ally. This art form trains you to think on your feet, respond instinctively, and adapt to the unpredictable. These qualities are invaluable beyond the spotlight, enriching your problem-solving skills, enhancing your communication, and fostering resilience in the face of uncertainty.
