The Improv Gym

Come build up your improv muscles at BATS’ Improv Gym! The Improv Gym is more like a traditional gym than like a typical improv class.  Rather than committing to 6 or 8 weeks, you can subscribe to the gym one month at a time and then drop in to play with a variety of coaches during that month.  You’ll get to play with several coaches and other students while learning new skills and practicing old ones. Starting in January, you will have two options for the Improv Gym: —Online Gym: This gym is entirely online on Wednesdays and Thursdays from 7-9 pm PST.  The cost is $175 per month.  When you subscribe, you can attend as many or as few of the workouts as you want for that month.  On nights you choose to attend, we ask that you stay the whole time rather than popping in for a few minutes. —Hybrid Gym: This gym includes the Wednesdays and Thursdays online PLUS a Saturday gym that happens in-person at Ft. Mason from 11am to 1pm PST.  Members of the Hybrid gym can attend any Wednesday, Thursday, and/or Saturday.  The cost for the Hybrid gym is $225. For March, some of the coaches lined up include Derek YeeBasel Al-NaffouriDave DennisonBrian Jones, Jenny Rosen and Corey Rosen.  Coaches may focus on specific skills, games, or genres, or they may ask the gym members what they’d like to work on, so feel free to show up with requests. The gym is open to anyone who has completed F2 or above.
