IMPROVISATION CLASSES

Fall Session 2008 (Sept - Dec)

IMPROV FOR KIDS!!!!
Improvisation for kids focuses on teaching students the rules and guidelines of improvisation, as well as encouraging students to express their opinions and thoughts confidently and without judgment. There are four main components to learning improvisation; listening, positive thinking, acceptance of ideas, and communication. The guidelines of improvisation can be used as tools to help students create a strong social and ethical foundation for themselves as they grow as individuals. Improvisation is used as a team building tool for many corporate companies, as well as a confidence building techniques in schools. At The Actors Studio we teach the art form, not only to help students develop as improvisers, but to also help them grow into the amazing young adults they are meant to be. If your child has a knack for comedy, or if your child is looking to express his or her creativity, The Actors Studio’s IMPROV FOR KIDS is where they should be!

Ages 6-9, Monday’s 5:30-6:30pm, and $135 per 10 weeks session.
