The Improv Gym

In this ongoing class students hone their improv and acting skills and narrative storytelling.

Students may continue monthly until their coach feels they are ready for the first level of the Performance Lab. If the student has no desire to perform they may continue their learning and growth in the personalized, safe and creative atmosphere of the Improv Gym.

Upcoming Classes:

There are currently no classes scheduled.

“I love the playful, can’t fail, theatrical nature of BATS’s philosophy.”
