What our students (AKA Joyriders) are saying about our workshops
Stevie created a safe, professional, and friendly space in which to learn what's been (for me) a very intimidating art form. Their knowledge and experience of the craft are amazing, and their teaching skills are second to none. I can't wait for the next one!
I came in as a total beginner and felt that I was given the tools needed and the support to approach improv in a fun and creative way.
This workshop was awesome. We worked on the fundamentals and sharpened our tools. Stevie created a safe space to play and fail, and they gave gentle side coaching that enhanced our scenes.
Stevie does a great job with the workshop. Time flies by. The topics and objectives are clear. Everything is easy to digest and understand. What I appreciate the most is the real-time coaching and notes Stevie gives during and right after scenes. The class size is appropriate, with enough support while also allowing ample time for everyone to perform and ask questions. Would definitely take another workshop with them again!
It's great to have the option of a low-stakes (only 3 week course) to enhance my improv skills. Stevie did a great job of digesting many aspects into a 3-week course.
I'm SOOOO happy to learn your next workshop is "in the works"! I missed out on other improv classes by waiting too long to enroll, and now they're full. Meanwhile, I've become somewhat of an improv groupie, going to as many shows as I can to learn and observe while being entertained. You are an AMAZING teacher and seem wise way beyond your years (whatever they are)! Looking forward to seeing you again soon.
I look forward to more classes!
I will definitely take more classes from Stevie!
I really enjoyed Stevie's deep dive into show tools and their ability to explain the balance of using them with other skills!
