Discover the fun of improvisation in a relaxed, welcoming and supportive environment.

This six-week course is designed especially for complete beginners. You don't need any acting, comedy or improv experience—just a willingness to give it a go. You don't have to be naturally funny, quick-witted or outgoing either. Improv is a skill that anyone can learn.

Our sessions are friendly, playful and encouraging, creating a space where you can relax, try new things and enjoy yourself without pressure or judgement. Many people come to improv to build confidence, meet new people, think more creatively or simply have fun after work.

Improv isn't stand-up comedy. You're never expected to perform on your own or tell jokes. Instead, you'll work together with your fellow classmates, learning how to support each other as you create spontaneous scenes, characters and stories through simple games and exercises.

Over six weekly sessions you'll gradually develop the core principles of improvisation while getting to know your group in a fun and encouraging atmosphere. Every week builds on the last, helping you feel more confident, creative and comfortable taking risks.

Throughout the course you'll explore skills including:

* Saying "Yes, And..."

* Listening and reacting in the moment

* Building confidence

* Letting go of overthinking

* Working as a team

* Creating characters and relationships

* Storytelling and scene-building

* Creativity, spontaneity and imagination

* Supporting your scene partners

* Most importantly... playing, laughing and having fun!

Whether you're looking to boost your confidence, meet like-minded people, improve your communication skills or simply try something completely different, this course is a great place to start.

By the end of the six weeks, you'll have learned the foundations of improv, shared plenty of laughs, and become part of a friendly and supportive community. Many students continue on to further classes, socials and performance opportunities—but there's absolutely no expectation to perform if that's not your goal.
