“Andy visited our group of improvisors and taught us an incredible amount in just 2 hours. The most important thing being: how to be an even better partner/team member. Andy’s style of teaching with his warm brand humor and positivity is what we look for in a teacher and an improv community member in general. We hope to have him back for years to come.

He brought our festival a newer look and approach that I highly encourage any improviser to take a class from him. I promise you will learn new tactics and have a blast while doing it.”

“We had Andy come in and teach improv for our kids Jiu Jitsu summer camp and the kids absolutely loved it! He did a great job at starting with the games that all the kids of different ages could participate in before building on them and going into some other exercises. It was really funny, really well organized, and I would absolutely have him come back again. He made improv seem like an approachable discipline/art form for kids and for adults.”
