Information coming soon.

Check out this video of a TV documentary about her and her work. It's in Japanese, but you get the vibe.

Come and join other beginners and intermediate improvisors in exploring the fun and the fear of musical improvisation!

Workshops are held at Studio Gokko near Yoyogi-Koen and Hatagaya, close to the restaurant Hoff. Please note the workshop fee is slightly different. Bring exact change if you can, please. And careful with the map here on Meetup! Some report it leads them to the next street over. Use this Google location if you have any problems: https://goo.gl/maps/w4f6GgXbYG5u2YvW7

Thanks,
Christiane

**Apres-improv Socializing**
After the workshop, students can walk across the street to Hoff, a great restaurant for food, drink and conversation, so it's educational and social!

***

The Improv Foundation Workshops are open workshops, so any native-level English speaker is free to come and give it a try.

**Diversity Policy**

We strive to create a welcoming atmosphere for everyone, regardless of minority status. Continued participation is at the discretion of the instructors. So be positive and nice to your fellow improvisors! Also, we're all adults here, but hitting on people isn't cool in a workshop. Just saying.

**Improvisor Resources**

Check the Improv Resources page on our website, www.improvazilla.com, for lots of information on terminology, games, and more!

Improvazilla Impro Dojo Artistic Director

PS: Studio Gokko is about a ten-minute walk from the following stations: Hatsudai, Hatagaya, Yoyogi-koen, and Yoyogi-hachiman.

The GPS should take you right there, but just in case, we are very close to a restaurant called Hoff: http://hoff-restaurant.com

Workshops are held our black box theater Studio Gokko, in the basement of an orange-tiled building with a cleaners and glass shop on the first floor, and our door is on the very left-hand side, next to the glass shop, which has グラス written on its shutter. Look for the Studio Gokko logo on the door!
