Greg surmised that comedy must have these building blocks too, they just hadn\u2019t been codified. Greg\u2019s early mission became to fix that problem.<\/p>\n He identified the principles, techniques, and skills used by comedy writers and funny people, and he broke them down. From this research and codification, he created a comprehensive system for teaching stand up comedy.<\/p>\n Comedians who have used his system have been able to master or perfect their natural talents.<\/p>\n The Greg Dean Comedy System has launched the careers of numerous comedy greats, including Whoopi Goldberg, Anthony Jeselnik, Sherri Shepherd, Sean Carrigan (The Young and the Restless).<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n \u00a0His classes have also helped people from all walks of life find their \u201cinner funny\u201d and learn how to express their sense of humor.<\/p>\n In addition to Greg being recognized as the \u201cBest Comedy Teacher\u201d by his peers,\u00a0<\/p>\n he\u2019s also touted as the professor for stand up comedy\u2019s teachers. You see, his system is so effective that nearly every other stand-up comedy teacher in the field uses it now.<\/p>\n There\u2019s no greater compliment that one can be paid than to be the resource that everyone uses!
