Foundation 1 is a fun, playful, and engaging introduction to the principles and mindsets of improvisation and the BATS style of improv. The class will focus on developing the ensemble and honing these foundational skills:
- Listening
- Support
- Spontaneity
- Imagination and
- Collaboration
Students will learn the groundwork for the creative magic of improvising stories together.
World-class coaches guide students through the first exciting stages of improvisation in a safe, friendly atmosphere.
At the end of F1, the coach will make a recommendation for each student about what next step is best — repeating F1 to strengthen the necessary skills or moving to Foundation 2: Movement & Story.
