Description
Learn to collaborate with others, think on your feet, and celebrate mistakes using the skills of improv theater
So many of us go through life following scripts we didn't write for ourselves-scripts designed by our family, shaped by our friends, and influenced by the expectations of the people we meet. Using practical self-help skills rooted in improv principles and depth psychology, we can live more authentic, fulfilled, and empowered lives.
