It’s World Teacher’s Day!

We want to share our appreciation for our incredible instructors, past and present. These teachers not only educate but foster a sense of community with their students, many of whom stick together throughout the length of their program and remain friends and creative partners long after classes end.

Our upcoming term begins on October 18, and we’d like to introduce you to the fabulous instructors teaching Improv, Musical Improv and Stand Up Comedy. Now is the time to enroll in your first ever class, or next step on your comedy journey.

Milo is a graduate of Grand Valley State University and has been exploring performance their whole life, ranging from murder mystery acting, Disney princess impersonation, theater performing, and playing guitar in a family band.

Milo graduated from the Stomping Ground Improv Training Center in 2022 and since then has loved the magic of improv, especially of the musical variety. They find improv to be a great way to inspire and expand natural creativity and hope to teach it to as many folks as possible! You can see Milo performing in Broadway(ish), The Drawing Room: An Improvised Regency Play and Improvised! The Musical. They also coach LBGTQ+ improv team, Rainbow Rats.

John caught the acting bug in 2008 just before he finished high school and it wasn’t long after that he joined Take One, an improv comedy troupe, spending the last 12 years touring with them across the midwest performing at comic, anime, and other pop-culture conventions. In John’s pursuit of performance, he has trained with OKC Improv, ComedySportz Dallas, and with coaches from The Second City, iO Theater, and most recently, Stomping Ground.

When he isn’t taking the stage or stepping behind a camera, John tends bar professionally at work and personally for his friends, taking joy in cultivating an experience for every audience he’s given.

Sara is a lifelong performer, growing up acting in DFW before getting their degree in Comedy Writing and Performance from Columbia College Chicago. After learning and performing at The Second City, they moved back to Texas and has been consistently performing, directing, teaching and producing at taken in Stomping Ground Comedy by @stompinggroundcomedy

💜 Today is World Alzheimer's Day!

For the millions of families caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's or dementia, today is a reminder: you are not alone, and how we connect matters.

🧠 That's why Stomping Ground Comedy offers Improv for Caregivers, pay-what-you-can workshops (funded by AWARE North Texas) where professional and family caregivers can release stress, build community, and practice new ways of connecting with the people they love. No acting experience needed. Just an open mind and a willingness to play.

Our co-founder Andrea K. Baum, M.Ed., LPC, recently co-authored a peer-reviewed study in Academic Psychiatry, the first of its kind to show how improv can teach dementia-care communication skills. What we practice in our workshops is grounded in real science (neat!).

Our next workshop is November 6 and registration is open now.
