If you're looking to get into comedy and have no idea where to start, start with Ahmed!
I started this comedy journey eager to learn how to write jokes that don't just sound funny in my head. Taking classes with Ahmed really helped me unblock my mental blocks, lean into who I am, and channel that uniqueness through my comedy. Going up on stage magically felt way less intimidating with his encouragement.

I’ve taken a few comedy classes before but Ahmed is the only time I signed up again.
I’m probably going to take class with him a 3rd time and I’m not the only one. There’s no one like Ahmed in the all the world.

Ahmed’s class has been pivotal to me finding my voice as an aspiring standup comedian.
Through his classes I was able to develop my material, be mentored and guided towards achieving maximum success off stage and on stage and gain the confidence I needed to get a strong foundation in standup comedy, I am forever grateful to Ahmed for his support and mentorship.

Ahmed is hands down one of the best teachers I've had in my life.
He creates a fun and safe learning environment and provides great feedback and notes for improving all elements of Stand-Up. I would highly recommend taking his class!
