Coach Mike, improv and acting teacher and founder of Silly Goose Comedy in Stuart, Florida

Hey, I'm Coach Mike

Welcome to Silly Goose Comedy.

I'm a professional improviser performing regularly at Doghouse Theater in Delray Beach, FL. I've been bringing the joy of improv to stages and classrooms across South Florida for years.

Why did I start Silly Goose Comedy? Because I believe everyone deserves a space to laugh, connect, and discover just how capable they really are. Improv isn't about being the funniest person in the room—it's about trusting yourself and supporting the people around you.

Whether you're a beginner looking to break out of your shell, a professional wanting to sharpen your communication skills, or a company hoping to build a stronger team, I'm here to guide you every step of the way.

"You are enough. Everything happening in your head is enough. Let's find out what happens when you let it out."

📍 Based in Stuart, FL
Available for workshops, classes, and corporate training.

"After two workshops with Coach Mike, I am hooked. Improv is stretching me in exactly the right way. It requires presence, listening, trust, and the willingness to let go of overpreparing, overthinking, and trying to control what comes next.

In just a few hours, I could already see the connection to real life: interviews, keynotes, sales conversations, meetings, and even how I talk about my own business with strangers. I know my work inside and out, yet simply talking about it without rehearsing can still be surprisingly hard. Improv is helping me trust that the words will be there when I need them.

Mike creates a space where you can experiment, get out of your own head, laugh a lot, and realize you are far more capable in the moment than you think. The group was a mix of ages, backgrounds, and experience, and we had an absolute blast.

I cannot wait for the 7-week class. If you are even a little curious, start with one of his 1-day workshops. No experience needed. And yes, having fun should absolutely be part of the development process."
