Amazing Instructor -
Drama I: Losing Inhibitions
Awesome. Really enjoyed the class. -
Stage Combat Intensive
The class was truly enjoyable. Jack (the instructor) deconstructed the movements in a manner that was easy and fun to learn. Jack then taught us to put it all together in a safe and fun manner. I only wish we had more time to practice the choreographed fights. I will definitely take another class from Jack as soon as I can.
