Improv 101 for ages 9-12 (4 classes) is an event that takes place at The Mopco Improv Theatre in Schenectady, NY. The event will be held on December 1st, 8th, 15th, and 22nd from 10 AM to noon. These four introductory classes are designed to teach students the fundamental principles and skills of improvisation. Participants will learn important improv concepts such as "Yes, and...", celebrating failure, spontaneity, collaborative listening, and making their partners look good. Through these classes, students will develop the ability to create scenes and stories on the spot. This event is not only beneficial for aspiring performers, but also for individuals who want to enhance their listening skills, trust their creative instincts, and be more present in the moment. Improv 101 is a great starting point for anyone interested in acting or improv. It is also highly useful for those who struggle with public speaking, as it helps individuals become more relaxed, persuasive, and skillful speakers. The minimum age requirement for this event is 9. Whether you consider yourself an introvert or an extrovert, it is normal to feel nervous before attending your first class. However, rest assured that the class is designed to create a safe and supportive environment for students to explore improvisation.
