Kymberlee Weil
Kymberlee is equal parts stage samurai and fearless facilitator. With over a decade of weekly improv training, she brings off-the-cuff wit, sharp timing, and a whole lot of “yes, and” swagger to everything she does. She’s taught improv at the TED Summit in Scotland and leads wildly effective workshops for corporate teams, transforming communication through spontaneity, connection, and play.
Currently, Kymberlee performs long-form improv with the Santa Barbara-based Embarrassment of Pandas, plays short-form with Santa Barbara Improv, and brings the unexpected to life in specialty shows with the traveling team Pandamonium.
When she's not on stage, Kymberlee helps speakers and thought leaders level up through confidence, stage presence, and communication prowess—all with a side of improv edge.
Side effects of Kymberlee's improv training may include bold choices, contagious giggles, and the irresistible urge to make stuff up... in public.

Wirt "Erik" Salthouse
Erik brings his experience, enthusiasm and perspective to the stage at Carpinteria Improv. A fixture on the central coast improv scene for over a decade, Erik has performed with the Pandas and Tater Totz.
What’s one of Erik’s classes like? You’re usually in for a wild ride, with a lots of encouragement to take big swings. Perfect for beginners and seasoned professionals alike, his classes focus on fundamentals, and students walk away with one or two axioms that de-mystify the art and take the scare out of stage fright.
Erik’s classes can be summed up in his own words: “The point of any game is to teach you something, but the point of why we’re here is to have fun.”
