Level 1: Spontaneity


  • Paddington Brisbane Australia (map)

Our popular eight-week beginners course introduces you to the concepts and skills of improvisation through games, exercises and discussion in a friendly and playful environment. ImproMafia is the longest established and largest improvisation company in Queensland and our training program enjoys a reputation as Brisbane's best.

In Spontaneity, you will learn techniques to:

  • Relax and allow your ideas to flow

  • Trust your creative impulses

  • Be present and stay in the moment

  • Listen and attend to others

  • Accept and build on ideas

  • Work collaboratively with others

  • Deal with and even embrace inevitable mistakes

This course is a great way to try something new, bring laughter and play into your life and expand your comfort zone! Students take our courses for pure fun, to try a new hobby, to improve confidence in public speaking, work presentations, stand-up or acting, or simply to unleash their creativity.

Spontaneity is the first stage of the ImproMafia workshop program. It requires no prior improvisation or performance experience. The maximum class size is 16 to enable individual attention as well as the opportunity to learn by watching others.
