So far I've completed two terms and an intensive, and I have nothing but praise for this school and its teachers. If you're wondering if improv is for you, grab one of their taster sessions or dive into a 1a.... read more Everyone in class is lovely and you'll be encouraged to sit in that sweet spot between pushing yourself beyond your usual habits and enough comfort and safety to find new discoveries. The deeper you go in, the more you learn! Yes it's fun and that's magnificent, but it's also soul and mind-expanding, which can't be bad.

Both for beginners and those with experience! Over the last decade I've taken improv classes in the Bay Area, Dublin and the UK. This was one of my favourite experiences (I took the “Slow Burn” intensive with Jules Munns). I... read more was not feeling super confident about meeting a whole new set of people beforehand but Jules set the tone so that everyone was gentle and supportive to each other and he also structured the class and provided side coaching so that everyone felt comfortable, inspired and came away being sad the week was over. The scenes had both profoundly emotional moments and very funny talking-about-nothing. I'd do it again in a second. It was also lovely to be able to get to know people from the US, Italy and UK and to hang out in the evenings.

Superb Superb Superb. If you're looking for an addiction that is healthy for the mind, body and soul.
Go no further than AndAlso Improv.

A perfect meld of learning, listening and laughter. Thanks Jules and Heather for a joyful weekend in a beautiful place.

I flipping love what improv with AndAlso has given me.
Not only a fabulous inclusive community but also skills and fun and utter joyful playfulness which I carry into my work and home life too.
These talented facilitators are serious about having... read more fun and make classes the right level of challenge and learning: a couple of hours a week of mindful surrender to the Gods of Improv seems to take away all the mess of daily life and energise you for the week ahead. I love learning to fail gloriously and then build something beautiful from nothing in great company. It’s the highlight of my week.

I've been taking various regular musical improv online classes with various andalso Improv teachers since 2021 and am so grateful to the person who pointed me to this brilliant, high quality offer. If you have always been attracted to musical... read more improv but are still mustering up the courage to try it out, don't wait any longer and join the international Sunday drop-in at least once. If you have already fallen in love with musical improv, you have come to the right place! I really hope that these classes will go on forever. My life is better because of them.

Taking classes with AndAlso is one of the best moves I've made. I regularly laugh till I cry; I've learnt so much - both in terms of improv skills but also about myself; the teachers are exceptional at creating a... read more warm, supportive environment, yet still challenging you to push yourself and improve. And being around funny, creative, open-hearted and open-minded people has done wonders for my social life. Highly recommend.

Love the variety, love the play. Every session is different yet has a grounding theme. I open up and learn more about my confidence to interact with others and let funny appear. No need to even be funny… the sessions... read more just bring it out. The growing connections with the group are half of the experience… building friendship over time in a playful setting is really relaxing and enjoyable! I want to go all the way… to the end of all the levels and ‘complete’ comedy improv haha. Such a great journey to jump into :))
Anna
Brilliant empathetic instructors who make classes interesting and fun!!!
Mary
All my Improv experiences have been excellent - the teachers are the perfect mix of fun and informative. The workshops feel like a very safe space

*ONLINE only* for me in California; have done literally hundreds of hours of Musical Improv training via Zoom since 2020. LOVE these teachers and this program. Welcoming, inclusive, supportive, knowledgeable -- they will connect with you ...

I really enjoyed the Show and I saw that people have developed their Improv skills creativity and confidence massively in recent months. I laughed a lot:)

A professional setup with a caring community ethos. AndAlso will look after you, whether you're trying improv for the first time or you're a seasoned performer.

I've now completed four improv courses with AndAlso over the last year or so, starting from a base of zero improv knowledge or experience. No regrets!

So much work must go into it! And it's amazing that there's an end of course showing in an actual venue at the end to share what you've learned with friends and family. Our classes have opened into proper friendships and a sense of community too, which is a wonderful bonus.
I've never had any issues or problems and I've felt able to ask questions and try stuff out and basically it's great. Come for a taster, stay for the course!

I can’t praise AndAlso too highly! All the teachers know their artform inside out, and share their insights with enthusiasm, warmth and humour.
I’ve done many of their classes over the years, and they’re always ridiculously fun, and beneficial in ways... read more you might not expect.

Simply excellent. I've taken a lot of improv courses over the last 10 years. AndAlso has some of the most knowledgable and most caring instructors out there. They know their stuff.

Heather and Joe are legends! They manage to create a wonderful fun and safe space to explore and always bring the best out of you. I started classes in lockdown and have not been able to stop! Thoroughly recommend 😊

If you're considering improv, and especially with the AndAlso team, don't wait another second! You'll discover straight away how accessible and inclusive the space is, how capable and caring the teachers are, and that there's no need to be funny or have any acting skills. Simply show up as you are and have the time of your life!

I just need to say that this is one of the best things I have done in my life.
I was getting into an “I’m an introvert, I don’t do things like this” mindset. Applying the wrong idea of introversion (which... read more annoys me) to myself.
After seeing my wife in her end of term show I thought what the heck, give it a go.
It’s been enormous fun. It’s like permission for adults to play. Kids naturally improvise all the time don’t they?
It has also I believe been quite healing. I have an arthritic condition that I simply forget about when involved in this. It’s helped me to recognise and believe in a part of myself that I didn’t know existed. A freer part. And I hope psychologically this will affect my condition in a positive way. I wonder if anyone else has had this experience?
It’s also helped me be freer in my art.
I love it.
