SF: Improv Social with the Fists of Improv

The Fists of Improv is a queer & kink-centered improvisational theater troupe. We utilize mindfulness- and presence-based techniques to not only build our improv theater scenes but also to learn how to let go of negative thought patterns that can bog down the creative process. Our ultimate goal is to create performances and workshops to entertain, enlighten, and celebrate our kinky queer creative community.

Our meetings start with beginner games and awareness techniques with the last hour usually focused on more advanced practice for the core performer troupe. Anyone is welcome to participate in the beginner practices or even just to watch. There's no gatekeeping for the "advanced" stuff either, but building trust among a theater troupe requires commitment, and we don't want folks to feel pressured at the start.
