James Dean Saldivar

Yo this is James! I would love to coach your improv team and/or practice group.

I have been doing improv since 2015. I run the monthly show Drawing With Sharpies at The Clubhouse and The Inner Sanctum, as a member of the improv group The Silver Sharpies. I have studied primarily at UCBLA, where I trained under Will Hines, Billy Merritt, Gavin Speiller, and Alex Fernie, amongst many others. I have also read every improv book, so that you don't have to.

My focus is on Game, scenework, and forms. These things will ensure that you have consistently great scenes.

As improvisers we should continually to work on the fundamentals, while simultaneously pushing what is possible within this art form. And have fun while doing it.
