Improv Comedy

Feel like acting, but not like memorizing a script? Then you’ll feel right at home with improv comedy. Improv is a form of theatre where you work together to create fast-paced improvised scenes and sketches. And the best part: there's no pressure to be the funniest person in the room, just a willingness to experiment on stage! You will get to know the basic techniques of improv, like taking a figurative punch, accepting and incorporating input of your peers, and creating a story together. Moreover, you will learn how to confidently take the stage. We will act from different angles, from the absurdist hilarious to the subtle and serious.

What you will learn:

  • The basics of improv comedy
  • How to build a story collectively in minutes
  • How to use associative thinking and adapt swiftly
  • How to create interesting, diverse and funny characters

Burlesque

Burlesque classes by Charlotte are stylish, brought with humor and a safe space to develop yourself. In class, we pay attention to: moving elegantly and femininely, with or without heels. We make use of your strengths and your beauty. You certainly don't have to take off your clothes! We summarize exercises in a choreography that is sometimes feminine, sometimes funny or just very clumsy. An hour of burlesque guarantees laughter together, trying out new moves for your next party or conquest and developing your dramatic ability. You get your own stage name. Burlesque increases your self-confidence and self-esteem. This is THE course if you want to move more easily, beautifully and comfortably in your heels. But you may also dance in socks, sneakers or bare feet during class.
