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. Whether you want to hone your improv, build your self confidence, boost your social skills or just have a laugh and make some new friends, AndAlso ticks all the boxes!

Heather and Joe offer exceptional classes. They know their stuff, and how to make students of all levels thrive. Their classes are my favorite fun thing to do. Never in my wildest dream did I ever think I would... read more be singing and writing songs. I am so grateful!

Fantastic improv company!

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! It's masses of fun and all the tutors I've had are funny, proactive and... read more kind, and a lot of thought has gone into the structure of courses so that you build up skill and experience (and therefore confidence) over time. 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!

Since starting improv classes with AndAlso I have laughed in ways I didn't know were possible, I've become so much braver and more confident, and there is so much more joy in my life. I feel lighter and happier all... read more the time. I've made some wonderful friends and only wish I had discovered improv sooner, as it's completely changed my life for the better.
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!

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.

Got to do a musical improv intensive from AndAlso Improv! SO WONDERFUL. I was lucky enough to be able to work with Heather and Jules and Joe and this crew has some mad chops for improv.

I'm fairly addicted to doing courses and starting improv is one of the best things I've ever done. Met the most amazing community of people, grown in confidence, and realised I'm actually pretty awesome! The teachers are incredible.

*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 ...

Just completed the “Slow Burn” intensive workshop with Jules Munns. Jules is a very well organized, articulate and experienced teacher. He considers each participant’s wishes for growth in improv skills and follows through with that in the course. The workshop... read more is fun, supportive, and focused. I highly recommend it for all who want to up their improv game.
Carolyn
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
I participated in the 1-week, slow-burn improv intensive in the summer of 2025. It was excellent!
World-class teaching, well organized, safe & supportive culture, and both fun and educational. I highly recommend.
Steve
Very well run local, inclusive improv community doing courses and shows. I strongly recommend it!!

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.
It is for everyone and all inclusive. Two and a half hours of belly aching laughter is guaranteed... read more every session. Give it a try, you will not be disappointed.

I have been learning improv from Heather and Jules at AndAlso since 2014. I have always loved their approach, non judgemental and also equipping you with skills and tips to improve. Some of my all-time favourite exercises were from their... read more drop-in classes, and I now go every year to their Spring retreat. Highly recommended!

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.

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.

Improv is a great way to meet people, gain confidence and have fun. However, it can be intimidating to attend a class for the first time.
