					Inspiring teachers and well-balanced workshops! Watching Heather in action is a true delight—whether she's leading a workshop or performing on stage.				
Edyta
 
					All the lessons I've had with AndAlso (and the retreat I went on),  have been fantastic, I’ve learnt so much from them. It’s 90% hilarity and 10% deep and meaningful/emotional.
Whether you want to do improv for fun, learning or... read more personal growth, I can heartily recommend them.				
Rosy

					I've thoroughly enjoyed the classes and courses I've attended with And Also. The brilliant teachers and fellow students have helped me to grow and develop my improv skills whilst having a lot of fun in a really supportive environment with... read more lovely people. Thank you! I'm looking forward to the next course already.

					AndAlso Improv offerings open new doors into what's possible with improv theatre. What's delightful about their approach is how it centers around what's enjoyable and unique to the individual improviser's personality, tastes and weirdness.

I recently finished a 12-week online course... read more on improvised high school/teenage musicals. It pushed the limits of what I've seen in the genre of High school musicals, resulting in each session with an enriched toolkit to create compelling characters, compelling narrative structures and kickass improviséd musical numbers.

As a player, it re-established the personal connection to being a teenager and all the creative possibilities emanating from that.

As a regular at AndAlso, the classes and the community have contributed immensely to my improv practice and coaching. Can't recommend enough joining them. Your improv and life will be all the better for it!

Frank
 
					A week of the most joyous, educational, non-stop, intensive, musical improv. Heather, Jules, and Joe work at the top of the game as professional improvisers and as master teachers.

					Take your improv skills to the next level in a safe, supporting  and nurturing environment.

					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.				
Ariane
 
					I took Heather's workshop and it was amazing!				
Oded
 
					Brilliant empathetic instructors who make classes interesting and fun!!!				
Mary

					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.				
Tom
 
					Heather and Joe are the best! I took an online class with them and it was awesome. They are both incredibly talented, adaptable, encouraging and kind. The class gave me lots of great tools to use in musical improv shows.				
Kim
 
					I have taken many musical improv classes over the course of the past 5 years. Heather and Joe are, by far, my absolute favorite team to work with—I have grown so much in my time with them!! My listening and... read more performance skills, confidence, ...				
Sharon

					Warm-hearted people, great, skilled teachers! Have done two workshops including a Spring retreat and will definitely go back. I specifically appreciate the analytically precise feedback, warm hosting and sheer capacity for joy!				
Viola
 
					Very well run local, inclusive improv community doing courses and shows. I strongly recommend it!!				
Liam
 
					So I've been doing improv now with AndAlso for nearly two years. It's been the best decision I've made in that time and one of the best I've ever made in general.

Courses have not only provided an incredible amount of... read more laughs, a link into the wonderful Brighton improv scene and a lot of friends, it's also reduced my fear of failure when going into things. My confidence is much better, I think so much faster on the spot and it's helped me adapt to more stressful situations.

The end of course performances have been some of the best nights I've ever had. The camaraderie, the comedy and feeling of having done a great show is a thrill that lasts for days after.

The teachers are all brilliant, they're wonderfully friendly and funny people. Their passion for improv comedy comes across in every lesson and it's very endearing. Given that I'm in the fourth paragraph I think you'll believe me when I say I can't praise them enough.

These guys are great, if you end up doing this then welcome to the Brighton improv scene. It's a great place to be.				
Aidan

					Brilliant classes, courses & retreats superbly taught in a super fun & supportive environment. Highly recommended!				
Nathan
 
					If you want to learn new skills, build your confidence and do this whilst having the best time then Heather, Jules and all at Andalso are the people to meet. Their courses have helped me develop and thrive in a... read more positive and fun environment..				
Duncan
 
					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!

					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 😊				
James
 
					I’ve been lucky enough to take classes with Heather, Jules, and Joe (both online and IRL). Absolutely fantastic. ❤️❤️❤️				
Jen
 
					Living abroad, I'm only able to do improv online with AndAlso Improv. But it has been amazing, Heather is a generous and encouraging teacher. I've learned so much even with her only being a little square on my screen. Hope... read more to experience the school IRL one day!				
Justine

					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. Each teacher brings something unique, but they all share a passion for this artform... read more and all have the skills to help you get the most from your classes. I've taken classes with AndAlso since October 2022 and would recommend it to anyone. There's something for everyone here!				
Ryan
 

					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.				
Ric
 

					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!
