…and for other improvisers

I regularly teach and coach improvisers in improv and musical improv.

I regularly run courses with Hoopla Impro. More information and bookings here.

Introduction to Musical Improv
This course covers song structures, rhyming, opening numbers, and moving from scene into song. The current course started on Wednesday 25 September, but there will be more in the new year.

Next steps in Musical Improv
In this course we look at more advanced structures and patterns, and further explore group performances.

Other things
You might also see me teaching on non-musical courses.

Making People
Our characters drive the story through their actions and reactions, which in turn is largely driven by their personality. This workshops looks at key personality traits (taken from psychology theory) that are useful to think about when improvising, and using those to develop our characters and to direct how they behave in scenes.

The Core Of The Song
Whether we’re aiming for funny, moving, or a combination of the two, the best songs tend to have a clear hook, catchy lyrics, and a specific concept. Together we can think of these as the ‘core’ of the song. In this workshop, we’ll look at how we lock in on this ‘core’ in order to make our songs fun, memorable, and easier to perform.

All Together!
A workshop dedicated to creating songs as a group. We look at how to share lyrics and movement, and how to keep songs consistent between people. We also look at how to perform like a pop group—it’s not all about musical theatre!

I have a blog which has various articles and resources that I find interesting, and other improvisers may too.
