It doesn't matter if you've improvised a zillion times or if you're not even sure what comedy improv is. It doesn't matter if you've memorized scenes from "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" or if you've only seen your friends perform improv once. It doesn't matter if you're the class clown or if you feel kind of shy. Everyone will laugh and learn together. For just one game. We'll go over the rules and then play it together, learning as we go. Here's what's coming up: Week of June 23: Good Advice, Bad Advice, Irrelevant Advice Week of June 30: Old Job, New Job Week of July 7: World's Worst Week of July 14: I Am A Tree And, we will laugh. We will definitely laugh!

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree in Music or Theatre or Arts from UC San Diego
I have an MFA in Directing and a certificate in clowning and commedia dell'arte. I've participated in improv comedy and taught it at middle schools, high schools, and universities for years.
My favorite moment doing improv was at a high school where I planned with one of the students in advance to argue over one of the games at the Faculty/Student Improv Comedy Night. We kept bickering over the course of the event until he ultimately ran at me, tackled me, and we rolled into the orchestra pit. It became the stuff of legends. I never told anyone it was planned and, as far as I know, neither did he.
