Improv For Anyone Class in Redwood City

Want to try your hand at improv? Here's a great way to start!

Improv is not just for actors or performers - it’s for everyone and it’s a skill that can be applied to any profession. This workshop is not just about being the funniest, fastest or most clever, but about effective communication, out of the box thinking, confidence building, listening and team work. Most of all it’s about having fun! Whether you are a beginner or a seasoned performer, everyone will enjoy the process.

Don’t just take our word for it - TechCrunch recently published an article that explains why improv is a great tool for tech workers at startups.

I began to realize that improv for entrepreneurs was akin to weight lifting for professional football players, minus most of the grunting. It is a training regimen that transforms people into their most powerful and effective selves in a startup environment. It can take a shy software engineer who’s never talked to a client and turn him into the company’s best salesperson.
