Class Experience

Improv B.A.S.I.C.'s is the 5 keys guidelines of Improv.  We cover these through multiple games and exercises designed to practice good form. We always start with fun warm-ups and then dive right into the interactive learning portion.  I have simplified the descriptions of games and exercises so there there is little lecture time and more performing. I team up learners in two to three participant at a time and give them skills to practice. I am an engaging instructor that enjoys teaching.  I use a evaluation formula that gives genuine praise and positive feedback for improvement. I will give the learners various scenarios and explain the objective of each game. They will act out each exercise with one or more partners. Beginners or experienced actors are welcome.

Learning Goals

learners will participate in improv games and exercises with focus on spontaneity, working with others, communication, and how to create scenes.

I have given hundreds of presentations and evaluations as a member of Toastmaster International. I also competed in the World Championships of Public Speaking.  I learned a great deal on delivering a professional performance and also how to watch and give constructive direction to others.  I embrace an enthusiastic approach to learning and enjoy teaching the self discovery of your imagination.  I am a amateur magician and have been performing slight of hand for my entire life. I can also make three balloon animals.
