The student can expect to see growth in confidence, preparedness, and effectiveness. Skills learned will be applicable to a variety of situations and individual goals. These can range from live performance (story-telling, monologues, poetry, etc.), through business and professional applications (training, presenting, interviewing, leadership and management) and will be weighted based on the goals of the students in attendance, both as a group and individually. Classes will operate in an environment of support and collaboration, and be a judgement-free safe space. There is no experience pre-requisite, and this seminar is designed to benefit a variety of learning goals, from workplace growth through public performance. All are welcome.

Using the Art of Improvisation to sharpen skills and flexibility needed to excel in today's rapidly changing world.
This class will explore ideas and concepts used by professional communicators, and apply them to specific real-life situations. The goal is to broaden the available options the students will have to draw from when encountering challenges on a daily basis. Taught through a series of enjoyable games and exercises, students will increase their confidence, reduce stress, and improve communication and leadership skills. This seminar is designed to be a fun day of opening up communication skills, breaking down insecurities, and visibly increasing confidence within laugh-inducing exercises. The games and concepts learned can also be taken back to the workplace and shared with others as they improve, not only confidence and quick-thinking, but also timing and teamwork. The seminar will operate in an enjoyable, collaborative environment and will be a safe place for all to stretch, exercise and grow. There is no pre-requisite and all are welcome.
