Online Improv Course

What is Improv Wizards?

We’ve been Los Angeles based working actors for over 20 years each. We started Improv Wizards to share with the world one of our greatest joys in life! Improvisation.
It’s our mission to teach you Improv Comedy. In short, we want to teach you to become an Improv Wizard.
We teach workshops all across Los Angeles, and also get hired to travel and teach. And it’s awesome.
But we wanted to make the joy of improvisation available to people all over the world. So we started Improv Wizards as a way to create lessons, video tips, blogs, and even fully improv courses so that you can learn improv skills from anywhere in the world.

Can you Learn Improvisation Online?

Absolutely YES!

To be bluntly honest, we weren’t sure at first. But several factors, like geography, availability and the COVID-19 Pandemic pushed us to find out. And after years of teaching and doing it, we learned that you absolutely can! It may not always look like traditional in-person improv classes, but we discovered a very important thing: learning on your own is MUCH BETTER in several ways!

Is it Possible to Improvise Alone?

Surpsisingly, YES!

You can’t practice every single improv skill alone, but you can practice so many more skills than we would have believed possible. And we’ve figured out how to teach those skills to you. We have discovered how to make not having a group or a scene partner an advantage to your training. Again, at some point you’ll want to work with other minds in the mix, but for learning and practicing so many of the basics and even advanced skills of improv, we can show you how to do it from the comfort of your own home, and on your own time. In fact, learning to improvise on your own even has several advantages!

Eric Artell

Eric feels like he’s been doing improv since he was in the womb, but he’s since realized that it was likely too difficult to do space work at that time…In reality, he’s been learning and performing improv since before the turn of the century (training at The Groundlings in Los Angeles and performing with his bff Lincoln), and he’s been teaching improv for nearly 17 years. You may have seen his face in one of the dozens of national commercials over the years (Mazda, AT&T, PizzaHut, etc), on a TV show, or in a film, or you may have heard his voice on the radio or in some video games. (If you really want to see a full list, browse on over to his imdb page) He loves acting, spending time with his family, and eating great food, but more than anything else, Eric loves helping people learn how to do improv comedy and become an improv wizard. (okay, maybe not more than all the other things, but he really loves to teach it!)
