We had a quick 3-hour improv workshop at the Geery Theater with Jessilee yesterday and we had so much fun! Jessilee was so professional and she taught us many useful skills and tricks for improv performance. We did many exercises together and it really gets your brain working. We learned performing skills and team interaction skills. I believe improv lessons and exercises can help to prevent seniors from getting Alzheimer's disease because it provides us opportunities to interact with team members and respond to unforeseen circumstances in a timely manner. I strongly recommend Windhaus Improv to anyone who enjoys laughs in their lives.

The Improv Squad of the Elk Grove Senior Center attended Jessilee's three hour class this week. Wow! I wish I could give her 10 stars! Not only was it fun, it gave us a thorough mental workout. We left feeling energized and excited about future classes with Jessilee.

I had so much fun doing a two-day improv intensive at Windhaus Improv! Jessilee is not only a talented improv performer in her own right, but she is also a skilled teacher, and I'm happy with how much improv knowledge I have retained from what she has taught me over the last year. She also puts students at ease by making the space welcoming and encouraging to all.

The WJ Geery Theatre where we practiced is a comfortable place to perform, and it's in the heart of Midtown, which is a vibrant part of the city. If you're like me, you will have a lot of fun at Windhaus Improv, learn some really cool games (and skills), and feel very much at ease (even if you're an introvert).

If you’ve ever wondered why people find improv valuable, give Jessilee the chance to answer that question with you. Personally, I credit Jessilee with helping me rekindle a childhood interest in not just performing arts, but play for its own sake. Both performative ability and the inspiration to make things more fun have served me well in work and life, on and off stage.

Whether you’re looking to add more joy to your life, trying to ease anxieties about the social aspects of work, or looking to grow your performance art abilities, Jessilee’s supportive teaching and coaching style are well calibrated to help you get the most out of improv, whatever that means for you.

Jessilee is fantastic. She is knowledgable, receptive, flexible, and non-judgmental. The warm up games were always engaging and she gave great advice when giving assistance with a scene. I have always wanted to take an improv class and am so glad I did. I will take intermediate next, for sure!

I’ve been a part of Jesslilee’s troupe for about two years and it’s been a singularly unique, rewarding, and fulfilling experience. She treats everyone with the utmost respect, patience, and friendliness—from regulars with years of experience to newcomers with no experience alike—happy and willing to give individual attention to those who request it, putting in loads of work preparing her workshops to the benefit of all. She is welcoming to folks of all manner of diversities, building a loving and cooperatively creative community within as well as with the greater Sacramento improv scene. Do yourself a favor by changing your life for the better by giving Windhaus Improv a spin!

Jessilee hosted a class for members of the Elk Grove Senior Center. She is professional and knowledgeable. She geared the class towards our specific needs. What a wonderful time we all had. The only downside is the class went by too fast. If you're on the fence about learning Improv, I highly recommend you take the leap. Thank you Jessilee!!

I completed the Advanced Improv Intensive earlier this month and enjoyed the class immensely. Jessilee provided excellent content and feedback that left me feeling confident and inspired! This was my second class at Windhaus Improv, and I look forward to checking out additional classes in the new year!
