SUMMARY:Foundations of Improvisation @ Change Through Play
DESCRIPTION:Welcome to the only improv studio in PDX founded and run by a still-working actor and improviser with 30+ years of on-stage and on-screen experience. \nOur Foundation series is geared towards students who are new to improvisation and those looking to come back and re-learn the important basics. This series welcomes 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 new ways to communicate and collaborate! \nWatch this 2min video from our Founder to learn more about what to expect from our classes: \nOur joyous & engaging classes are 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’ll learn about: \n\n\n👂🏼New ways of listening\n🎁 The gifts of staying in the moment\n📚 Telling spontaneous stories with others\n👣 Thinking on our feet & trusting our instincts\n👥 Quickly collaborating with others\n👀 Identifying & using non-verbal communication\n💪🏼 Discovering our strengths\n\nWhy Take Classes With Us?\n\nOur 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 their skills over their time with us. Because of that\, we offer learning opportunities that students won’t find anywhere else. \nAll of our students will receive the following: \n\n\nA safe\, nurturing\, and supportive environment\n10 students max per class\, so each gets lots of attention\nWe offer flexible class options so students can purchase the number of classes that suits their schedule\nCoaching and check-ins during & after each game to help make sure you’ve understood the breakthroughs\nBlackboard discussions during class\, when necessary\, to help visual and analytical learners\nClosing every class with students recognising their own wins\nReceiving highly personalised notes via email from your teacher\, celebrating your wins during the class series & recommending skills to work on when you come back for another class with us.\nParticipating – for those who wish! – in our student showcases\nReceiving and reviewing vids & pics from our showcase as keepsakes and learning tools
