This is not a lecture. This is not therapy. This is work. You’ll write, test, and refine a 3–5 minute stand-up set with live feedback from club owners, producers, and working comedians, then perform it in a public showcase at Backroom Comedy Club. **WHAT YOU GET** ✔ Weekly Sunday Workshops (6:00–7:45 PM) Hands-on sessions focused on: * Joke structure & fundamentals * Writing efficiently * Reading a room * Curation your own audience * Understanding how comedy rooms actually operates ✔ Live Feedback; Not Notes You’ll receive direct, honest feedback from: * Club owners * Producers * Professional, working comedians ✔ Guaranteed Stage Time Participants receive guaranteed access to open mics every Wednesday & Friday during the program (optional but strongly encouraged). ✔ Public Showcase / Initiation Ceremony All participants perform in a public showcase the following month; where everything comes together. ✔ Access to the Backroom Ecosystem Graduates gain pathways into the Backroom ecosystem (stage time, barking, show running, bar support, and more). No promises. Just access—and what you do with it. **WHO THIS IS FOR** * Brand new comedians * Comedians with 0–2 years experience * People who feel “stuck” and want structure * Anyone serious about learning stand-up properly No experience required. **WHO THIS IS NOT FOR** * People looking for a “safe space” * People who want praise instead of feedback * People unwilling to get on stage * People treating comedy casually This program is respectful, professional, and honest. **DATES** 🗓 Choose your cohort at checkout: * February 1 – February 22 * March 1 – March 22 * April 5 – April 26 🕕 Sundays: 6:00–7:45 PM (Wednesday & Friday mics run separately) **PRICING** 🎫 $300 Full Pay 🎟 Payment Plan: $150 deposit + 2 × $100 payments ($350 total) Capacity: 14 participants per cohort No refunds. Transfers to a future cohort may be considered. **LED BY** Brandon Sobel & Ariel Kagan Club owners, producers, and working comedians at Backroom Comedy Club. Comics who’ve come through this room now signed at Yuk Yuk’s, Absolute Comedy, The Corner, and beyond, including a Kill Tony Golden Ticket winner. **FINAL NOTE** Comedy Dojo is not about becoming famous. It’s about learning how stand-up actually works, from the inside of a working club. If you’re ready to put in the reps, welcome.

Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together. Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions. If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming! Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event! Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event! **Discord**: We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event! https://discord.gg/xwjDdVSw3E **Event policy**: * We have 0 tolerance for harassment. * We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets. * The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do. * Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.

Thanks to the team at Nationwide of supporting the group.
