Physical Improv Theater in English: Yes And Move! // Thursdays
‘’I’m not interested in how people move; I’m interested in what makes them move’’ – Pina Bausch
LOSE YOURSELF with PHYSICAL IMPROV!
This course by Nadia / Thekla (click to see profile) is uniquely designed to combine the principles of Improvisational Theater and Physical Theater, adapted to the needs of each group. Everyone explores their own kinesiology (with the use of certain drills/exercises) and you move, you dance, you play, you interact with music and your surroundings (with or without using words). Bond with the team through fun games and learn how to perform as an ensemble.
The goal of this class is to let you be YOU on stage and for you to discover the performer you enjoy, while being in the present moment, and releasing any thoughts that prevent you from being the most authentic version of yourself. Let’s be free to express, discover our beautiful potential, connect authentically, have lots of fun, and improvise. Let’s get Physical!
This journey will lead us to a performance (optional!), depending on the dynamics & the preferences of each group. A performance that we will both direct and perform! A performance which will be the take out of our connectedness with ourselves, the others and the surrounding, as atmospheric and authentic as it gets. Come as you are, it’s beautiful!

Should I choose Acting or Improv?
What’s the difference between Acting and Improv Theater? Acting and Improv theater are both forms of performance and have similarities, but they also have some key differences:
WHAT IS ACTING
Acting is a structured process of interpreting and portraying a character/role in a scripted play or film. Actors are given a script to work with and deliver it as authentically as possible. They are expected to memorise lines and blocking, and to create a believable and consistent portrayal of a character over the course of a performance. This also involves a creative exploration of physicality and character voices.
WHY ACTING
Acting teaches you how to express & perform a character/role physically in an honest and confident way, in many different situations, and helps you connect deeper with the emotions and thoughts of a character/role.
———————————————————————————————
WHAT IS IMPROV
Improv is a more unstructured process of creating a scene without any script. Participants have to get out of their comfort zones, think on their feet and tap into spontaneity while performing. Improv actors typically work with minimal preparation or planning, and they are expected to create characters, dialogue and action on the spot, often in response to suggestions or prompts from the audience or other performers. There may be a lot of fun, laughter and camraderie in the process.
WHY IMPROV
Improv helps you connect deeper with others in a more authentic & empathetic way; be more creative, think on your feet and tap into your spontaneity and your playful inner-child.
*******************************************************************************
Both Αcting and Ιmprov theater can be useful tools for developing acting skills and building confidence on stage, but they are different techniques that require different approaches and skill sets. Both Acting and Improv can improve your listening and communication skills and level up your ability to actively and openly communicate with the world around you!
What happens if I miss 1 or 2 classes? Can I get a credit/refund?
ATTENDANCE
We understand that work & personal life is different for everyone and can be challenging to fully commit. Each student must attend at least 70% of each course (either 5/7, either 6/8, either 7/9 classes). Regular attendance will ensure a positive group dymamic as well as providing the student with increased opportunities to partake in pair- and group activities. It is beneficial for a student to commit to attending the majority of the lessons in a course to ensure his/her personal growth. Each succeeding lesson will build on the skills and activities of the previous lesson. If a student is absent or late in more than 2 group classes per course without a valid notice, then unfortunately he/she/they will not be eligible to continue the course, as this can significally affect the balance and the dynamics of the group.
REFUNDS/CREDITS FOR CLASSES MISSED
We sell packages of 5-6-7-8 classes only, so you can either pay 1 trial or the full course/package. However, we sometimes do exceptions (only depending on availability) and can give you a discount on the full course if you know in advance that you will miss some classes. We will do our best for our students to be happy 🙂

What are the discounts Act Attack offers?
Our goal is to always have affordable prices, so that everyone can benefit from theater. However, we also offer several discounts and gifts:
– ”Loyalty discount”: is the discount given to students who booked and completed 2 or more courses (for example at least 1 beginner + 1 intermediate course or at least 2 different beginner courses). The amount of the discount can be between 10 and 25 euros per person depending on the season, the city and the course. Furthermore, if you booked and completed 3 or more classes, apart from the loyalty discount we will soon give you a special gift 🙂
– ”Bring a friend” discount: is the discount given to a student who booked & completed a course, and also recommend us a friend who also booked and completed a course with us. The amount of the discount can be between 10 and 15 euros total depending on the season, the city and the course.
Discounts cannot be combined.
