Improv is a dynamic and energising way to spark creativity, build confidence, and strengthen communication skills that can help with public speaking, acting, or simply navigating everyday interactions with more ease and presence. This course offers a practical and enjoyable introduction to the fundamentals of improvisation in a supportive, low-pressure environment. Each weekly session focuses on a different improv skill, enabling us to delve into specific areas and reflect on our instinctive approaches. These skills extend far beyond improv, with many past students reporting improved confidence in social, professional, and day-to-day interactions. After a busy day, we will come together to be spontaneous, creative, and laugh our way through learning – no prior experience necessary! Plus, you'll form connections with fellow classmates and make new friends along the way.
By the end of the course, you’ll feel more confident in:
- Initiating scenes
- Developing characters
- Utilising the power of your speaking voice
- Exploring emotional depth
- Using physical space in creative ways
You’ll also sharpen your foundations in improv skills such as:
- Active listening
- Teamwork and collaboration
- Being present in the moment
- Embracing and learning from mistakes
Course Highlights:
