What Former Students Have Said

"The practices that Kelly teaches are powerful tools for unlocking creativity. I would recommend this introductory class to anyone interested in expanding the horizon of what they feel is possible."

-Micah GR

"What a joy! To play pretend again! And with people who are genuine. We made fast friends :) [...] Kelly's manner is easy. And his teaching makes everything more fun than it has to be."

-Chase W.

"Level one was an amazing class to be a part of. [...] If you interact with humans you should take this class. Helps you be more comfortable in daily conversation and public speaking. I will be taking level two."

-Georgui K.

"I have always noticed I was never good at talking to people I hadn't planned to that day, after this class I noticed improvement in the day to day and at work."

-Cory L.

"I have been eager to try improv for a long time. I took a class before (just one off, not a six week class), and I enjoyed it, but Kelly’s class offered consistency and repetition, which made me a better improviser. I’ve already gained the confidence to perform some around town, and even when I wasn’t killing it, I was having fun. Absolutely take this class."

-Matt H.
