Class Description

If you're curious and looking to get a little taste of improv, our 4-week Intro classes are the perfect fit. You'll meet new friends, improve your communication and interpersonal skills, gain confidence in speaking and performing in front of others - all while having plenty of laughs with improv games galore! Ages 18 yrs+.

For folks who enjoy the relaxed pace of our Intro classes, you are welcome (even encouraged) to take them more than once - no two classes are exactly the same!

Day of Class Directions

Location: Southminster United Church, room B22 (the Way Station)

Please wear/bring: clothes and shoes that you're comfortable moving around in, a water bottle, a notebook and pen if you're a note-taker. Please note that this space can get warm and we'll be moving around, so you'll want to dress accordingly.

To access the church: use the west entrance on Aylmer Avenue (the one further from Bank). The door will be unlocked from about 15 minutes before class starts until about 15 minutes after it starts.

To find the room: once you're in the church, take the stairs on your right down to the basement. At the bottom of the stairs you'll find a short hallway. B22 is along that hallway on your immediate left.

I'm running late/not going to make it: please report expected absences ahead of time by emailing info@improvembassy.com. If you’re running late on the day, text your instructor at 613 804 6785.
