You know the difference between a good set and a great one. — The problem is that most improv training is designed to build skills, not to examine the ones you already have.

In this class, you will perform, observe, and be observed — with the specific goal of naming what you actually do, not what you think you do.

This is not a class about fixing you. It is a class about seeing yourself clearly — your specific strengths, your recurring traps, and the gap between your intentions and your impact. You will leave with a concrete, personalized map of your craft so you can get to the goals you have a little bit easier and a little bit faster.

Who this is for: This class is designed for performers who want to work long-form improv, who are serious enough about the craft to want honest, specific feedback rather than general encouragement.

You are probably right for this if: you perform regularly and feel like your growth has plateaued; you know something is off in your work but cannot quite name it; you have taken a lot of classes and feel like you keep getting the same notes; you are building toward something — a one-person show, a touring ensemble, a television audition, a career — and you want your training to reflect that.

"Aaron creates and teaches some of the most unique and interesting improv formats, all with such a fun and playful energy. His insights into game-based play and ensemble dynamics have helped my improv work to this day! I highly suggest taking a workshop with him."
