iO West Rolls Out New Curriculum for 2012 iO West is unveiling a brand new curriculum for their seven level improvisation program. The overviews for all of the new classes are available at http://west.ioimprov.com/classes/curriculum-2012 Levels 1 through 4 will be put in place in January and Levels 5, 6, 7 and the Industry Improv classes will begin in February. - If you are a current student, you may continue to proceed through the program as normal, but if you would like to go back and take a level you have already passed you can do so at half price! - If you are an alum of our program, you are welcome to come back and take any level you would like, equal to or before the last level you completed, also at half price! Please note, though, that teachers will have the discretion to decide if you are not ready for the level you have signed up for. Contact the Training Center to help figure out the best class(es) for you to take. - If you have not taken any levels at iO previously, then we look forward to seeing you in Level 1. If you have any questions at all, please contact the Training Center and we would be more than happy to answer your questions. You will notice that the current Level 6 class has been removed. The forms that it included (Armando, LaRonde, etc.) will be used in addition to many others, throughout your training in Levels 1 through 4.

Registration is now available for a three week course taught by Dave Hill at iO West. In this intensive, you'll learn techniques that will allow you to create fun and interesting characters that have room to grow, as opposed to becoming flat and trite in a scene. And isn't improv so much more fun that way? So not only will one of iO's most experienced and supportive teachers give you the tools to develop characters that are fun to watch and play with, he'll also work with you on how to allow them growth through out scenes. The classes finish up on the playground of long form where your new character savvy mind will have room to stretch it's legs. So sign up now, because space is limited.
