Scenes are the building blocks for all forms of improv, and also this style of improv is the most helpful for the improv bit of commercial auditions. In this course we focus on improvising by finding character and relationships and improvising from the heart, so it should be in synch with your drama school training. <\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>Where should I start if I have no improv or acting experience?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hooplaimpro.com\/beginner-improv-comedy-course.html\">Level 1 Beginners Improv Course<\/a> is the best place to start.

These are designed to expand the horizons of the London improv scene and encourage improvisers to do more than one format and be brave and keep pushing the art-form. We may have a different style from other training you've done, as we're more about improvising from the heart, so our teachers are really adaptable and will happily help you get into the Hoopla spirit of things. You could also start at a lower level if you'd prefer, we're happy to be flexible and you can change levels if needed.<\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>Can I start straight at the advanced levels?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Yes.

For courses you'd be welcome to start at the level you feel comfortable with, usually Level 2 or Level 3 if you've done some improv before then had a break, and you can always change levels at no charge if you want to. <\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>I&#039;ve done improv before but I haven&#039;t done long-form before, where should I start?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Our Level 3 or Level 4 course. Level 3 is great for scene work, Level 4 is great at then connecting those scenes together to create an entire long-form show from just one suggestion.<\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>I&#039;ve done your beginners course or a similar amount somewhere else, what should I do next?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>The best next step is getting on stage and performing, and our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hooplaimpro.com\/london-comedy-improv-course.html\"> Level 2 Short-Form Course <\/a> is great at this because it supports you into doing a show for the first time and gives you a great first experience of performing improv for the first time. <\/p><\/div><\/li><\/ul>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner el_class=&#8221;padder-right&#8221; width=&#8221;1\/2&#8243;]<ul data-multiple=\"true\"  class=\"accordion nav\"><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>What is Hoopla&#039;s improv style?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Play! Most of all we make improv fun &amp; friendly. We encourage playful spontaneous improvisation. We are especially good at character and relationship based improv, improvising from the heart! In workshops we encourage you to get out of your head and lead with emotion, movement and play. <\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>Are there lots of performing opportunities at Hoopla?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Yes. Loads. We run auditions for our house teams every 1-2 months, which gives you the chance to rehearse and perform with the same team each week with a director. We also have multiple nights for groups that have formed at our courses to build up stage time and experience. We even have a full-time producer employed by us to help give our students ongoing performance opportunities and support after courses. We also have jams twice a week where anybody can come along, sign up, and get on stage and perform. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hooplaimpro.com\/performingathoopla.html\"> Performing Opportunities at Hoopla<\/a><\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>Do you do concession rates?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Yes. We do half-price or free courses for people who are unemployed, on low income, full-time students, under 23 and more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hooplaimpro.com\/diversity-and-accessibility-policy.html\"> Concessions. <\/a><\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>Do you encourage people from different backgrounds?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Yes. In fact it's our main reason for being. Improv is for everyone and we encourage people of all genders, nationalities, ethnic backgrounds and sexuality. We are engaged in a number of programs to encourage people from different backgrounds into improv, including shows, workshops and more. More details are in our<a href=\"https:\/\/www.hooplaimpro.com\/diversity-and-accessibility-policy.html\"> diversity and accessibility policy. <\/a><\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>What styles of show do you do?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>All improv. We wouldn't want to go to a pizza restaurant and have garlic bread as the only option. We really want to inspire the London improv scene to open up and enjoy the full range of possibilities that exist with improv. And we want to inspire the future of improv, to go beyond existing styles and constantly invent new shows. So at our advanced levels we help improvisers explore all improv formats including Improvised Theatre, Improvised Movies, Deconstructions, Harolds, Character, Narrative, Improvised Musicals and more. <\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>How do your courses connect together?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Level 1 teaches the foundations of improv: Listening, Yes And, Being Obvious, Commitment, Spontaneity and Play. Our Level 2 uses short-form games to help improvisers experience and develop professional improv skills through play, especially character, emotion and spontaneity. In Level 3 you take these skills and apply them to performing longer scenes based around characters and relationships. In Level 4 you learn how to connect scenes together to create an entire long-form show from one suggestion. In Level 5 you then get to experience every improv show format under the sun, and become the improviser you want to be! After that we have loads of ongoing performing opportunities and ongoing support for our students. <\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>How come you teach both short-form and long-form?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>Because they are connected. In the 1960s Viola Spolin (in Chicago) and Keith Johnstone (in England) were both trying to teach acting and help actors improvise plays. They found that fear and lack of listening were getting in the way of spontaneity and the actors ability to collaborate in the moment. So they both developed games to help actors learn by doing rather than thinking. These games over the years had spin offs that became short-form, but the purpose of the games was to teach the skills needed to actually improvise long-form theatre. At Hoopla we use games in the earlier levels as we believe it's through play that people can learn to listen on stage, remove fear, and be spontaneous, and it is this learning through doing that enables them to become amazing long-form improvisers in later levels and shows.\n\nSo short-form and long-form aren't chalk and cheese, they are cheese and toast.<\/p><\/div><\/li><li><div class=\"accordion-title\"><h4>Do you do auditions to get into each level?<\/h4><\/div><div class=\"accordion-content\"><p>No. The role of the teacher is to change the person, not to judge them.<\/p><\/div><\/li><\/ul>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1513269911583{padding-top: 0px !important;padding-bottom: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1513270075706{padding-top: 60px !important;padding-bottom: 40px !important;background-color: #3a81f7 !important;}&#8221;]<div id=\"testimonials-slider\" data-options='{\"animation\": \"slide\", \"controlNav\": true}' class=\"flexslider nav-outside \"><ul class=\"slides\"><li><blockquote><p class=\"serif\">Beginners Impro - This is a brilliant course, which I cannot rate highly enough.
