"I continue to use many of the things I learned in your class in my everyday life. I think improv should be mandatory training
in schools and corporations. Who couldn't benefit from learning improv?"
-Jenny Pu, Researcher
"I was instantly brought back to the joys of childhood when expression was honest, enjoyable and without judgement...As a result I
found myself less judge-mental in my professional and personal life."

TRUST
In order to improvise, you must be able to rely on others to support you as you face the unknown. Skill building exercises
are taught in these workshops to teach you how to focus your attention away from yourself and onto your fellow improvisors. Assisting
and encouraging each other is promoted, which creates an atmosphere of trust.
TEAMWORK
Teamwork is necessary for the improvisor,
whether you are involved in a scene or off stage. Workshop attendees learn techniques that prepare them to quickly react and respond
to the needs of other improvisors, and to support the story being told in a scene. The scene becomes the responsibility and the creation
of the entire group.
RISK TAKING
Improvisation requires the willingness to take risks. Participants in the workshops learn to
spontaneously express and act on their ideas, rather than to judge and dismiss them. Risk taking also requires accepting failure.
The improvisor learns to "let go" of a failure and move on.
COOPERATION
Cooperation is necessary for successful improvisation.
The improvisor is simultaneously an actor, director and writer. Skills which encourage recognition of one's individual and group role
are taught. Participants learn to give and take the "spotlight," while working in concert with the entire group.
THE WORKSHOP
It is reccomended that workshops are a minimum of 3 hours, but can be designed to fit any time period, they
can be one-time or ongoing, for small or large groups, and can be tailored to suit your particular event or needs.
Through a
series of enjoyable exercises, theater games and structured scenes, workshop participants learn skills which help them become more
effective in their work (as well as in other areas), both as individuals and as part of a group. The light-hearted atmosphere allows
participants to learn while laughing and having fun.
Workshops are designed to encourage:
Trust
Teamwork
Risk Taking
Cooperation
All through fun, games and laughter!
