About this event

Our Foundation series is designed for anyone new to the practice of improvisation and for those wishing to re-learn or deepen their practice of the art form's basics. We welcome people from all backgrounds, both creative and non-creative, so no acting or performing skills are ever required: just a desire to have fun, trust your instincts, and learn!

Students should expect to learn:

👂🏼New ways of listening

🎁 The gifts of staying in the moment

📚 Telling spontaneous stories with others

👣 Thinking on our feet & trusting our instincts

👥 Quickly collaborating with others

👀 Identifying & using non-verbal communication

💪🏼 Discovering our strengths

Why Take Classes With Us?

Change Through Play's studio is founded on the belief that student progress only comes from providing clear instruction and feedback. We not only want our students to learn the core skills of improvisation, but we also want them to IMPROVE over their time with us. Because of that, we offer learning opportunities that students won't find anywhere else, including:

A safe, nurturing, and supportive environment

10 students max per class, so each gets lots of attention

Coaching and check-ins throughout each class

Blackboard discussions, to help visual and analytical learners

Closing every class with students recognizing their own wins

Receiving highly personalized notes from your teacher, celebrating your wins during the class series & recommending skills to work on when you come back for another class with us.

Participating - for those who wish! - in our student showcases

Receiving and reviewing vids & pics from our showcase as keepsakes and learning tools
