Blasting up through a deck for some training

Hey guys,

I had a friend who was CFI, and he was telling me that when he worked out in California the Marine layer was quite a problem, so he would file IFR and then blast up through a deck with a student and do the PPL training above the clouds, like slow flight, steep turns, stalls etc... and the return for landing...

K, how is this done? Do you just file to another airport or clearance limit fix, and then once you are on top either go VFR and pick up and IFR back in or get a block or what? Are you going to get bitched at by ATC for trying to pull a stunt like this?

Thanks
