A qualified teacher, Amy runs workshops and classes for all ages [as well as teaching in the corporate environment, she's even been known to do children's parties if you ask nicely and promise her a slice of birthday cake...] with sessions focussing on 'getting good at the basics' of Impro. Believing strongly that we can all do with a little more spontaneity in our lives and that basic impro skills are highly transferable & hugely valuable in our everyday dealings with each other - classes are designed to encourage participants to become more confident, open and accepting performers/people.
Regular classes are held in venues across London. Recently sessions have been run at Riverside Studios, The Rag Factory & Battersea Mess & Music Hall.

What ImproClinic participants say.....
‘Amy and her team ran an inspiring and joyful session for our company. Its effect was to help us all work together, play together and unlock our creativity and spontaneity. My colleagues still talk about it as one of the most successful sessions of the conference, and the laughter was infectious - it is still ringing in our ears. I hope that we can do it again next year.’ Stuart MacKenzie, Maynard Leigh
"Amy's teaching style is high energy and incredibly positive. The class had a friendly and fun dynamic and although my skills were challenged I felt continually supported and able to explore and expand my potential as a performer." Hazel
"Just wanted to say thanks for your classes in Edinburgh. I've just had an audition that was completely impro based and without your sessions I would have crumbled!" Emily
"The session was great fun and I was definitely pushed out of my comfort zone." Sam
"Thank you for a fantastic class - I would love to sign up for the next session!" Danish
