The Outcasters’ youth improv classes will introduce students to essential skills in creativity, spontaneity, listening, acceptance, confidence-building, collaborative creativity and teamwork – all in an active and humorous way! We offer two classes, one for ages 8-12, and another for 13-17.
Our “learn by doing” philosophy will have students up on their feet and playing from day one. They’ll experience positive thinking while improving socials skills, self-confidence, creativity, and articulation. Students will undo rigid thinking that blocks creativity while enjoying a “no pressure” zone where they will practice bravery, risk-taking, and generosity in a kind, safe environment.
They’ll discover and share what makes them awesome! Whether interested in acting, stage work, or simply developing more self-esteem and confidence, this class will have students taking center stage learning the skills of improvisation in a supportive and fun setting!
Our training deeply focuses on acceptance, listening, awareness, and grounding, all allowing our students to engage with and support each other as both actors and audience members!
