Welcome to Improv 101 - the gateway to changing your life!

This class is AWESOME! Focusing on skills applicable both on and off stage, this class will help you live your best life - and it's concise, organized, full of learning, and fun. Each class covers a distinct topic - some of these skills include building ensemble, giving and taking focus, object work, and, one of the most crucial fundamentals of improv, the concept of “yes, and.” You will walk away a better YOU!

Experience is not necessary, but always welcome. We pride ourselves on offering a level and nurturing playing field. Improv Classes with CSz Boise are a fun, supportive way to learn improvisational thinking, gain self-confidence, develop crucial soft skills, and meet new people.

Cancellations: Classes may be canceled if minimum enrollment requirements are not met. Full refunds are only issued if the class is canceled by us.
Refund Policy: No refunds will be issued after the first day of class. Refunds requested prior to the first day are subject to a $25 cancellation fee.
Class Environment: Our goal is to make classes rewarding, safe, and fun for everyone. To maintain a highly focused environment, our classes are generally closed to outside observers. However, for our youth programs, if a student feels more comfortable having their adult present on the first day, you are welcome to stay for the first 20 minutes—just be prepared to participate! If needed for any of our classes, we can also arrange a tour of the building or an opportunity to meet the teacher before the session begins. Just reach out at the time of enrollment. We've been called one of the "8 Great Comedy Schools from Around the Nation" by Paste Magazine. We're dedicated to making you feel welcome.
Behavior & Participation: To keep the room safe and collaborative, we reserve the right to immediately remove any student from the program for a single egregious act, or if their behavior becomes continuously disruptive to the ensemble, with no refunds provided. (For youth classes, parents or caregivers will be contacted to address general behavioral concerns before any removal takes place).

Pricing Philosophy: We believe improv changes lives, and we want our classrooms full to maximize our impact! That is why we offer as many enrollment options as possible. Whether it is through flexible payment arrangements, reduced overall tuition, or finding a creative trade that works for you - WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK. Please choose the registration option that genuinely reflects your current financial situation, no questions asked. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions.
