Wow! Can I give Cool Beans Comedy 10 stars?? My 9-year-old son participated in the youth class, including the LIVE showcase as the finale - a sold-out crowd of 150 people, which was absolutely incredible. Corey is an absolute gift to these kids.
Corey is more than a coach. I can say, without hesitation, that he has been one of the most influential figures in the lives of my children to date.
My kid who is usually funny and out going was getting self conscious and embarrassed at school. Cool Beans Comedy exceeded my expectations and then some. My kid loved it so much we just finished his second season.
My 9 year old daughter did Cool Beans Comedy and had the most wonderful experience! Corey helped build her confidence and she felt so comfortable up on stage!
My son loves comedy and loves telling jokes, but he needed a coach to help him craft his story and get him stage ready. Corey did just that. In the end, he stood on stage with confidence and delivered a full five-minute set. It was so empowering for him!
The Cool Beans Kids class is the BEST experience and I couldn't recommend it more! I really feel that what is happening at Cool Beans Comedy is special and important, and one of the hidden treasures of Pasadena.
Our grandson, Alejandro, wowed the crowd!!!! He was a hit. Corey's the best coach and I am so happy that I signed my grandson up.
Cool Beans Kids has given us so much this year. Our child has found a home in this community. Corey facilitates an environment that is silly, warm, and welcoming (to all!).
My daughter performed in front of 150 people. She had so much fun! Your kiddos will gain confidence, learn how to write a comedy skit, learn how to perform it - all while having fun in a safe environment.
My son has gone through the program twice, has enrolled for the third, and wants to continue! Cool Beans is a VERY high quality program with great teachers that has helped guide my son chase his stand-up comedy dreams!
This was one of the scariest and most rewarding things I've done. The team at Cool Beans are experts at helping you use your own personal story and style to create an amazing performance.
I was terrified to try this material in front of a crowd, but this class made me realize something about myself. I'm funny. I guess a comedienne is born!
Corey Craig is one of those people who believes in you before you believe in yourself. I started Cool Beans Comedy at 70 years old.
I just finished my first class with Cool Beans and the first thing when it was over was to sign up again. They have put together a class that is both challenging and nurturing.
I've never done standup comedy in my life and took Corey's masterclass for the first time! After 5 weeks with Corey, my showcase performance at the Ice House was a blast!
I am an actor and this class stretched me in new ways and helped me develop a new skill that will be used in ALL of my acting! This class was a safe place for me to be vulnerable and try something new in a room filled with people who support me.
Such a fun and liberating experience! I was so nervous and unsure of myself when I started and came out so glad I took the leap!! Corey is awesome and a great coach. He really helped craft my set.
I asked Corey to make me funny!!! I wanted to not make Sickle Cell the butt of jokes! I absolutely was ready to hit the stage and everyone said, "I killed it!"
The program is a six week course where professional comedians help you craft an audience-friendly stand up routine. You will have encouraging teachers and a chance to perform your polished routine in front of a real audience.
The Cool Beans Comedy experience helped me check off stand-up comedy from my bucket list. It also now has me entertaining the thought of what else is possible for me?
Corey was wonderful to work with in planning our staff workshop. He was communicative and accommodating, and everything went smoothly. The workshop itself was beyond our expectations. He brought our staff together in laughter and fun for those few hours in a way that I know will have lasting positive impacts on our work culture.
Cool Beans Comedy was one of the highlights of our Fiscal Year End event and gave our team a fun opportunity to connect, laugh, and enjoy time together outside of the day-to-day. It created a shared experience that people were still talking about afterward. We would absolutely recommend Cool Beans Comedy to any organization looking for a fun and memorable experience for their team!
We hired Corey for our company offsite and I am SO happy we did! The team had an amazing time bonding through comedy. It was one of the most talked about parts of our agenda. The team had a blast!
Thank you Corey for a fun morning of togetherness! We appreciate you leading us in team building activities that will help us become a stronger and united group.
Everyone had a great time and was talking about it after! I’m glad we were able to get you out. It was a great bonding exercise.
Thanks Corey! Everyone had such a fun time, I hope we get to see you again soon!
