About Australian Master Classes

Transforming communication through innovative improvisation training

Our Story

Founded in 2017, Australian Master Classes emerged from a simple observation: traditional communication training wasn't preparing professionals for the unpredictable nature of modern business interactions.

Our founder, recognising the power of improvisational theatre techniques in developing quick thinking and authentic communication, pioneered a unique approach that combines theatrical improvisation with practical business communication skills.

Today, we've trained over 2,500 professionals across Australia, helping them build confidence, enhance creativity, and develop the spontaneous communication skills essential for success in today's dynamic workplace.

Our Mission

To empower Australian professionals with improvisation-based communication skills that enhance creativity, build confidence, and foster meaningful connections in both personal and professional settings.

Our Vision

To be Australia's leading provider of innovative communication training, creating a generation of spontaneous, confident, and adaptable communicators who thrive in uncertainty.

Our Values

  • Authenticity in all interactions
  • Continuous learning and growth
  • Inclusive and supportive environment
  • Excellence in training delivery
  • Respect for individual journey
