Take AN IMPROV or PRESENTATION Class!

Boom Chicago offers fun and exciting programs for companies, groups and individuals. Using the principals of improvisation, Boom Chicago can help unleash creativity, foster a team spirit and improve presentational skills.

The training can be organized in our Amsterdam theater or on location. Most courses last at least two hours.

Masterclass IN Presentation Skills

The presentation skills training will help you feel more comfortable and confident speaking in public. The more you enjoy presenting, the more your audience will listen to what you have to say and the more effective you will be.

This training starts with group exercises, then moves on to individual exercises, giving everyone in the group a chance to speak in public, receive feedback, and improve. €95 per person.

UPCOMING CLASSES AVAILABLE ON  MAY 18 & JUNE 15 FROM 13:00 - 16:00!!

Improv Class

This workshop introduces you to the exciting world of improvisation. The goal is to be spontaneous, have fun with the basic principles of improvisation. You will learn about actively listening, "yes and" and living in the moment. We end with perform scenes like Boom Chicago does on stage.  Get ready to laugh!

The course is genuinely exhilarating and you will be surprised how funny you and the other participants are. No acting experience is necessary. Price: €50 per person

Skip the boring, floating tour buses and ride on our smaller, open-air boat.

We attract more interesting people who like our fun, laid-back atmosphere. We go through canals too narrow for the big boys (like the heart of the red light district) and there are no headphones or recorded multi-language tours. Best on warm days, but it's fun in medium weather as well.  Don't be scared on an overcast day.  Just dress warmly.

On board is a Boom host/guide/all around good guy who sets the right tone. He knows the city and is happy the share his knowledge and experiences; the best cruises turn into great conversations. But if you just want to hang around with your friends and enjoy the view that's fine too.

Think of the Boom Boat as your friend's boat... Well your jerk friend who charges you money. 

One beer, wine or soft drink is included in your ticket and you are encouraged to bring more drinks and food for a floating picnic. Smoking (wink wink) is allowed!

Tours leave most days around 4pm, but please confirm the schedule. Showing up usually works, but booking a day in advance guarantees it. Click buy tickets to 'Boat Like a Local.' Call 0900 BOOM CHICAGO is another way. (70 cents per call) 

The boat picks you up from two locations at 4pm (It works. It's magic!): On the square next to the Anne Frank House (look for the person handing out magazines) and at Leidseplein 12 (the old Boom Chicago). BUT PLEASE ONCE AWAY CAN BE DIFFERENT TIMES, PLEASE CALL BEFORE!

If you're running late, the boat leaves  latest at the dock by the hotel at Prinsengracht and Leidsestraat.(also called Dikker&Thijs)

It's €16 for an 80-90 minute ride, depending on our whim and the route.  It includes one beer, wine or soft drink. Your food, drinks are welcome.

Boom Chicago has always had opinions, ideas and a big mouth. We are in the process of combining our blogs, posts, tweets, ideas and positions in one place.

While we build this page, just pretend we were in a bar together, having a few drinks and having an animated conversation. Ah, the good life...
