Improv Classes update!

Hello All!

I am currently testing the waters to see how many people would be interested in taking improv (or improve) classes in the Pasadena area. I have found an available space in the Pasadena/ Altadena area that will provide both a rehearsal space as well as a performing space.

That's right, a performance space! My hope is that we would be able to have shows at least once a month. These shows would consist of the students to provide them with a real chance to show what they have learned and to keep those skills sharp! Hopefully this will lead a long term improv group forming in the Pasadena area with regular classes and weekly performances.

First a little about my background. I have been studying, performing, and teaching improv for over 15 years. I have worked and trained with the Groundlings, ACME, Improv Olympic, Second City, and Theatresports. I have also personally worked with both Cynthia Szgeti and Keith Johnstone over the years, from both of whom I learned my teaching techniques.

The classes would be held on Saturday mornings at either 10am-1pm or 11am-2pm. I would prefer to have the class slotted for 10am as this leave the rest of the day free for all of you. Each class would be about three hours long and welcome every level of experience from the most basic to advanced. If there is enough interest I will also schedule another class during the week for advanced students, but that will be discussed later.

The current cost per class is $25 per class. However to make it easier on everyone you can pay for a month of classes at once for only $20 per class. This would be due at the beginning of each month. I would also be willing to work out group rates with any of the guilds at faire.

For those of you that are interested or if you have any questions, please contact me at gregdavidjones@yahoo.com including your full name and the best way to contact you. I am looking to get classes started by the middle of this month.

Thank you for your interest. As I said before, my hope is that will become a permanent thing with regular classes and weekly performances and become part of theatre community of Pasadena.

Sincerely,
Greg Jones
