Testimonials
"It's the bravest, most fun and most impactful course I've ever done. Being pushed out of my comfort zone and enjoying it. I feel I have become a better listener, it has also changed me into more of a 'yes and' person. I have also gained confidence when calling clients at work, as I feel more comfortable with whatever might come my way!" 

"It has made me feel more assertive and confident outside of the course and it's allowed me to enjoy being in the moment more. It has also enabled me to express myself creatively for the first time in a long time."  

"It's a very supportive, enabling atmosphere to be in, you will have a lot of fun, laugh a lot, and meet a lot of very nice people."  

Feedback from Jen's 'Improv into Creative Writing' workshop
"...a fun and engaging experience that was extremely powerful. I was amazed at how the exercises we did tapped into a creativity I didn't know I had and probably would have remained hidden without Jen's intervention. Highly recommended."
Michael Tipper, Professional Speaker 2011 (http://www.michaeltipper.com/)

"I was very surprised and impressed by the original and unique method for creating new writing. Writing can be a lonely business however this made it a team event - thrilling and exciting. I was inspired by the leader, the scenes, the games and the writing and ideas of the group. A rapid fire entry into creative writing! Excellent!"
Wanda Keenan, Comedy Promoter 2011

The Maydays BEGINNERS Comedy Improv
10-week course (11th week show!)
Next one starts October 2016
Unleash your creative potential and increase your confidence with improvised comedy! ‘Improv’ uses no prepared material. Comedy is created in the moment: a playful and liberating experience, which is both very funny and helpful for overcoming creative blocks. The course will teach you the techniques and give you the confidence to enable you to perform improv, and is suitable for both beginners and those with some acting or comedy experience.
Optional show at the end of the course. £135/110 concessions (unwaged, over 65, student)
