Improv is Invaluable
My 15+ years of studying improv has defined so much of who I am. I’ve seen how improv teaches crucial life lessons and skills. I believe that every aspect of a person’s life is greatly improved by heightening their emotional intelligence and cognitive awareness; the two skills that are ultimately most central to a good improv education. It’s also intensely fun, and fun is good! Teaching the skills of improvisation is one of my greatest loves, I would love to have an opportunity to show you why.
For People Seeking Improv Classes
I teach comprehensive improv classes in Los Angeles for all experience levels and purposes. I most commonly teach 8-week courses, meeting once per week. My classes normally focus on either improv comedy skills for stage performance, or creative and collaborative skills for the workplace and everyday life. That being said, I am most interested in the situation, interests, and needs of you as an individual; those details will determine what you should learn during an improv class above all else!

For Improv Teams Seeking a Coach or Workshop
I have been a traveling improv coach for 5 years, teaching workshops, masterclasses, and intensives for professional, collegiate, and high school improv groups. Each group’s needs are exciting and unique; working with different teams always ends up being a special experience. I think the reliable novelty of teaching a new group is what makes it one of my absolute favorite things to do. Getting a coach for your team, even for just one session, is incredibly valuable. Team practices become revitalized and rejuvenated. A set of fresh eyes can look upon all kinds of habits that all teams naturally develop. Most importantly, your team gets to benefit from improv experiences and knowledge from beyond the confines of your practice room. I enthusiastically recommend bringing in an external improv coach for your team; in my experience, teams benefit greatly every time. If you want that coach to be me, please fill out this form:
For Companies Seeking Creativity & Teamwork Workshops
Improvisation workshops for corporate teams are an excellent way to build and reinforce key workplace skills. Communication skills, group mentalities that promote team success, and the encouragement of creative brainstorming are crucial for teams of all types and purposes. Improvisation is a terrific tool for learning these skills, and I have been leading intensely active and fun workshops for corporate teams since 2016. Interactive games and drills demonstrate how our normal thinking habits at work can be controlled or fine-tuned to foster a more creative, collaborative, and caring environment. Teams who learn to play together invariably learn to work together at a much higher level. If you might be interested in a workshop for your group or company, please fill out this form:
