Going to a VIP drop-in (and then the 6-week Saturday class!) was genuinely one of the best things I’ve done for myself in the last decade. Natalie is an incredible instructor—warm, fun, and effortlessly supportive. I can’t imagine learning improv from anyone else. If you’ve been thinking about trying it, treat yourself. Highly recommend to anyone and everyone!

Had an absolute blast, the time flew by, and had such a laugh. Highly recommend, after this experience, it's given me the confidence to sign up for a six-week improvement class. It's a great outlet for those of us who are creative yet are stuck in drab suburbia! My advice: "Get out and invest in improve...It is medicine for the mind!"

So much fun! I felt invigorated afterward. Even though the point is improvisation, the class content is thoughtful, organized, and presented in a very playful, yet simplified, manner. Don’t be scared. You’ll have a good time.

I joined this class because I was grappling with social awkwardness when the quarantine was lifted. I got so much more out of the class than I realized!! I made new friends from all walks of life and we got to laugh along the way. VIP teaches improv to anyone and everyone in a way where you can not only learn how to be flexible in every situation, but you also learn to make even the most serious moments have meaning making too! Highly recommend and promise you won't be disappointed!

I’ve taken two classes with Natalie, and a summer drop in class. Honestly one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. I moved here almost two years ago and was already setting a date for my next move to a different city, but remembered a friend telling me improv changed his life. Taking these classes has helped me get out of my shell, and feel more confident in new situations. The best part has been making friends with some really good hearted and like minded people. I had no improv or performance background before, so for anyone thinking of taking one of these classes or if any of my review resonates, just do it. It’s so much fun. And you might make some excellent friends. xo

What Can You Learn From Improv?

While improvisation is generally associated with comedy and theatre (and it absolutely is, even when online!), there are also so many life benefits you can take away from a typical improv class. Communication is a huge part of what we teach and do, both verbal and non-verbal, but we also learn about ourselves in the process. Whether you want to grow as a person, or you want us to help your team get to the next level, read on to learn about some topics that we tend to cover often.

Communication Skills

Listening and reacting are at the core of what improvisation is all about. But of course, it encompasses so much more. You don't want to listen just to react, you want to listen to understand, connect, and collaborate with your scene partner (or, with whomever you're talking to). We learn how to actively listen, how to say yes, how to show instead of tell, how to tell a story, and ultimately, how to get out of your head and be more present.

How to Move Forward, Even in Failure

Our co-founder, Ryan, describes an improv class as a safe environment where you learn how to fail. We learn not to fear failure, but to see them as gifts, or opportunities. We embrace failure by getting out of our heads, taking steps forward, and trusting (both ourselves, and others) that we will figure it out as we go. In improv, as in life, you're never alone, no matter how much it feels like you are.

Mental Agility and Adaptability

Whether it's due to age, life's stressors, or for seemingly no reason at all, we have all felt like we're just a little less sharp, a little less quick, and a little more forgetful than we used to be. Improv exercises your brain in specific ways. Much like trying a new way home from work, or trying to write with your opposite hand, the games and exercises in our classes bring you directly into the present moment just enough to help you learn a bit while trying new things.
