ComedySportz University Intro to Improv Training Series

Our CSzU introductory workshops emphasize basic improvisational skills by exploring spontaneity, staying in the moment, risk-taking (getting out of your comfort zone), finding the story within the scene, developing characters, and other fun stuff in a relaxed and supportive environment.

Facilitated by a seasoned ComedySportz professional, the participants are led through various improv activities and games that work on and incorporate the skills that are used in improvisational comedy, including focus, concentration, teamwork, space work (using your environment in scenes), trust and scene work. You will learn to be fearless and have fun on stage! You'll even learn some ComedySportz improv games! Laughter and positive vibes are guaranteed.

We provide a safe environment where participants are encouraged to take chances and stretch their skills in short form, long form and various styles.
