12 week intro course to learn the fun-dations of improvisation!
Service Description
Our BASICS course focuses on the core principles of improv and creates a playful and judgment-free environment for you to try, play, laugh, fail & learn. You’ll meet a group of like-minded people to bond with and grow with. Over time, you’ll become more comfortable with one another —and with the stage— and your teammates & trainer will become your biggest cheerleaders. You'll also... ✨ Adopt a “Yes-and!” mindset 🏜️ Unleash your imagination and your creativity 🏄🏾♀️ Embrace presence, connection and trust 🎭 Learn key acting & public speaking techniques ❓Should you START the BASICS? YES if… 🎈You want two hours each week to play, let loose, and push the edges of your comfort zone. 🤝 You’re excited to meet new people and experience the magic of connection that comes from improvising together. ----- ❓ Have you already completed a BASICS course and you're wondering if you should you do it again? (even after 3 terms) YES if… 🔥 Your enthusiasm is high, you’re still feeling challenged, and the games remain fresh. 🎯 You’re building confidence but see room to grow—you need more practice nailing “yes-and,” supporting your scene partners, and truly listening. 🎉 You genuinely want fun and play, and you’re not yet looking for detailed notes or feedback. 🎬 YOUR TRAINER Bram Komen started his theater career 20 years ago by pure chance. He always had a respect and hunger for the creative unknown. After his theater education he started teaching improv in his hometown until he had the need to fly out and landed in Rotterdam. He uses his improv skills to explore and combine any form of performative art to create interactive experiences for festivals and other events.
