Whether you’re looking to refresh your skills, give your brain a spring clean, or simply take a break from the everyday, AndAlso offers a variety of improv retreats and intensives to suit all tastes (and budgets). These unique opportunities allow you to dive deep into the world of improv, whether you’re seeking intensive training or just a fun, immersive experience.

For those craving a deep dive, our AndAlso spring retreat is the perfect choice. This retreat offers a focused environment where you can fully immerse yourself in the art of improvisation. If you’re more interested in combining learning with relaxation, our summer improv retreats and intensives by the sea provide the ideal blend of work and play. Spend your days honing your improv skills and your evenings enjoying the coastal atmosphere.

Looking for something with a more relaxed, festival vibe? The Brighton Improv Festival and the Maydays improv retreat offer a chance to explore improv in a fun, supportive environment, surrounded by like-minded individuals. These events are perfect for those who want to learn, connect, and enjoy a break from the routine, all while soaking in the vibrant atmosphere of Brighton’s improv scene.

If you prefer focused learning from the comfort of your home, our virtual improv options provide a convenient way to participate in improv retreats and intensives without the need to travel. These virtual immersion workshops offer the same high-quality training as our in-person events, ensuring you can continue to develop your skills no matter where you are.

  • Simple instructions that turn out to be very useful. What has seemed complex, inscrutable and hard becomes accessible. You find answers to questions you hadn't thought to ask yet.

  • With Heather and Jules you will try everything in improv, and then, the opposite, and then the same thing, only different. They will change the way you see and do improv (for the better)!
