This class picks up right where Improv 1 left off.  We continue to practice the joyful, easeful approach to improvisation that strengthens your skills, expands your improv toolbox, and builds a community of trust. Our specific focus in Improv 2 is on more confident risk-taking as we get more comfortable jumping gleefully into the unknown and selflessly supporting our teammates.  Let's really dive into the concepts of "Who needs you most?" and "Listen to your foot!" while exploring how we can be of most service to the scene and each other. Ready to continue the joyride?
​All you need to do is jump and trust us to catch you!

About Your Teachers:
Katharine Daube is the creator and coordinator of HVC’s Sunday Improv Playdate.  She loves the feeling of community and the spirit of foolishness that are found there.  She currently performs with The Silver Lining, as well as HVC’s Championship Show, Family Show, and Seven Things.  She has fallen for improv because of its emphasis on collaboration, risk-taking, and general silliness.  In addition to doing improv, Katharine teaches sociology, plays scrabble, and loves an early bedtime.

Pam Victor is an improv comedian, author, teacher, consultant, and nice person. She is the founder and Head of Happiness of Happier Valley Comedy, the heart of improv in Western Mass, where Pam teaches improv to the best students in the world, as well as bringing the power of improvisation to the workplace in the THROUGH LAUGHTER program.  She's also a happiness facilitator and the originator of our wellness and wellbeing program. TJ Jagodowski, David Pasquesi, and Pam are the co-authors of "Improvisation at the Speed of Life: The TJ and Dave Book."  Pam is a nice person and likes you already.
​

Kate Jopson is a teacher and performer at Happier Valley Comedy. She started improvising in Miami in 2013 and has performed in festivals in Miami, Sarasota, and Hartford. She has taught improv from ages "please don't let them start singing" to "please don't let them stop breathing." She currently performs with HVC's Not in Charge, 2nd Saturdays Presents, and Dirty Vanilla Box, a duo-show with Pam Victor. She often "makes it weird." Sometimes intentionally. She hates writing in the 3rd person but Scott is making her. WHAT ELSE DO YOU WANT TO KNOW, SCOTT?!
