“Tami Nelson and Chris Trew of The New Movement served as my introduction to performing improv. They made the craft both fun and exciting in a low pressure laid back environment. With their encouragement in and out of class I’ve developed as a performer and gained skills that help me both on and off the stage.”

“Chris and Tami are fantastic improvisers and instructors. The atmosphere they create in their classes is relaxed and comfortable which makes it so easy to play in. They truly love what they do and it rubs off on the participants of their workshops.”

“Chris Trew’s classes are insightful and concentrated without being intimidating or constrained; energized, upbeat, and fun without being unfocused. His teaching style reflects his positive energy and free spirit. His extensive grasp of improv, stand up, sketch comedy and music add a well-rounded dynamic to his classes. Regardless of a student’s experience level, Chris has a knack for finding fresh new directions. His demonstrations, games, and exercises reinforced new directions in my performance. His playful inventive approach to comedy instruction is contagious!”
