Applied Improv Play-Shop

What is Applied Improv? Will I have fun? Will this work for my team?

YES, AND…

This is not only the answer to the question above, but also the first rule of Improv! Yes you will have fun, its almost impossible to walk away from improv without a laugh or two.

In this playshop The Funny Yogi leads participants through the rules of Improv and shows them how to relate these concepts  back into their daily lives.  The motto here is “forget the plan, and stick to the rules!”  We all know plans go haywire, life gets in the way, and soon we become overwhelmed or disappointed.  Throughout the workshop we will perform different Improv and cognitive behavioral therapy exercises to practice these “rules” which will help with everything from stress management to team building to increasing creativity and problem solving.

If you’ve done too much adulting lately, why not give Improv a try?  Please note this is not a playshop for those who are looking to be the next SNL star or even become a better Improviser.  This playshop is for anyone who is looking for a new approach to dealing with every day issues, work stressors, relationships, and increase personal growth. No previous Improv experience necessary.
