I completed the second city improv training program here and have nothing but fantastic things to say about this program. The classes are structured from levels A-E, and averages about 20 students with some attrition as you go up the levels. The students are mostly young professionals or post college students with some theater folks mixed in. I never had theater experience beforehand and i felt the classes covered the basics of improv well. More importantly, the teachers are very very good and the atmosphere is awesome. Students bonded over the course of their training, and even someone like me who was stage-shy beforehand felt comfortable after one or two levels. As a bonus, the comfort level with stage definitely translate well to confidence in other areas like job interviews. As a student, you also get perks like restaurants discounts and free tickets to second city shows. I highly recommend this place for people to try out improv courses whether for professional advancement, for public speaking, or for fun.
