Student Info - January Classes @ Annex Improv






Improv Friends,

I am Brian, and I run this thing.


I'm sending this 'All-Members' email to everyone that signed up for the 4 different January 2023 classes with Annex Improv.


One email to 'rule them all' because I want everyone to feel part of the bigger tribe, and I'm living with adult ADHD, so admin is...not my superpower.


Feel free to reach out to me with any questions [in a reply to me only], and trust me- it's all going to be great.


You've simply signed up to spend a couple of hours a week, gently stretching your mind and spirit in a creative way, with like-minded people. Many of you are understandably worried about how you'll do 'in front of others'. I predict that this anxious feeling will diminish over the next few weeks, and you will come to excitedly anticipate your Improv sessions.


We have 4 different sessions spread over 2 nights.

Here they are, and the info about them** [Some things are true of all 4 classes, see below]


1. Monday Foundations, 6-8pm, January 16 -​ March 13 [security door code: 1919]

-8 classes over 9 weeks [we don't meet on holiday Mondays, like Family Day on Feb 20]

-Intro to Improv basics including active listening, give and take, building courage and momentum.


2. Monday Continuing, 8-10pm, January 16 -​ March 13 [security door code: 1919]

-Building on your acquired grasp of the basics, you'll use your Improv skills to dig deeper into spontaneously creating fun, interesting stories with your scene partners.

-Less time on skill building exercises, more on creating short stories in Long-Form/Montage Improv and open scenes.

Teacher: Brian G. Smith


3. Wednesday Foundations, 6-8pm, January 18 - March 8 [security door code: 1920]

-Very much like Monday's class, but two solar days later.

-Did I mention the FREE hummus and chips?

Teacher: Yitzi Gal


4. Wednesday One-Room Schoolhouse, January 18 – Feb. 8, 8-10pm [security door code: 1920]

-Mostly beginners as above, but some returning folks as well that want to continue focussing on fun and games.

-4 weeks of classes, and half the price of 8 week programs.

Teacher: Yitzi Gal


Best,

Brian
