Level 1: Foundations of Improv
Anyone and everyone stands something to gain by taking a class with Washington Improv Theater. Go ahead, take the plunge.
More testimonials: See how improv can help you at work and bring out your creativity.
A student raves: “Two and a half hours of laughter! You learn how to get silly with strangers and to grow strong ties of trust based around utter absurdity. No pressure, no mistakes, only happy accidents.”
WIT welcomes anyone who wants to learn the joyous, community-building art of improv. It is the goal of our theater to promote an environment for our classes, workshops, rehearsals, performances, and other work that is free of discrimination and harassment. Discrimination and harassment of employees or any other participants in WIT activities is strictly prohibited and will not be tolerated.

Class locations to be announced soon
Classes will meet in Northwest DC, in the Adams Morgan/Columbia Heights area. Spaces we’ve frequently used include Sitar Arts Center, Latin American Youth Center, Universalist National Memorial Church, and others. We expect to continue working with our existing venue partners this winter but will post the exact locations for each class as they’re confirmed.
If a class day and time works for you and you’re comfortable attending at any of our locations in the area, you’re welcome to register now. If you need a specific location, we suggest you wait until we post the specific venues and choose the section that works for you. Registrations are nonrefundable under WIT’s Class Policies.
