Success! It's confirmed: Our meetups will now start Wednesdays at 7:00pm (same venue). Improv, the jazz of acting, the free-flowing river of spontaneity empowers us to explore the multiple personalities and characters that each of us is, desires to be, or is curious about. At any given moment, our mood and energy level depend largely upon our perception of our current surroundings. Improv liberates us most profoundly by reintroducing us to our own imaginative capacity in a way that embraces it …

We are fun, confident and single, and we're ready to get out there and mingle! The ladies have substance and the men like them that way. The ladies of substance are successful, good-looking,  sexy, mature women (usually over 40) who usually look and act a lot younger than their drivers license would indicate. The men are smart, good-looking, energetic and sexy and they prefer ladies of substance who can hold a conversation and know what they like and what they want. We are all looking to connect …

Are you breathing right? Have you ever counted how many times you breathe in a minute? Breathing is the first act of life and it’s the last act of life. In between, the whole life we are breathing in and out, but not attending to the breath. Ninety percent of the impurities in the body go out through the breath because we are breathing twenty-four hours a day. The breath is our best friend -- it's always with us. And yet, we hardly know much about it. What's more ... it holds some timeless se …

Blockbusters? Indie? Cult? You can get those anywhere. This is the group for movies so bad they're good. The weird, the bizarre, the horrible acting, the ridiculous concepts, the non-work-safe hilarity. Most people are just uncomfortable watching them, but for whatever reason they tickle the suitably twisted sense of humor. Would you watch a movie called Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter, because a movie with that title must be awesome?  Does your list of cinematic classics include things like Barbare …

If you join all or just a couple of the activities we will be having, I will be more than happy that you will be there! Because we will be conquering our fears together …

Urbandictionary defines an ABCD as "an 'American Born Confused Desi,' which is a derogatory term used for Indians, Pakistanis, Bengladeshis (South Asians) who have grown up in the United States and who act 'American' (as stupid as that sounds)." But really, it doesn't have to be derogatory. We're fortunate enough to have the best of two worlds. While there are plenty of desi meetup groups here in the the bay area, there seems to be a void for a legit ABCD group. So, if you're an American (or eve …

Welcome to The IMC Academy Meetup Group. We specialize in passing on the Teachings of The Legendary Broadway Acting Coach, Manu Tupou. Gleaning true knowledge and workable applications from his extensive educational experience in the arts, Manu Tupou formulated his discoveries into the simplistic, but revolutionary, "New Era Acting Technique" (NEAT). The hallmark of the NEAT technique is its respect for the sanctity and sanity of the individual artist-upgrading the artist's creation away from th …
