EASY" IMPROVISATION FOR EVERYONE LIVE online with Shawn Kinley
COURSE DESCRIPTION:
We are born great, improvisers; unscripted and spontaneous. We are taught to avoid change, failure and the unknown. And then, we spend much of our adult life trying to regain what we already knew.
Improvisation is at the core of all that we do. This workshop aims at removing the things that get in our way to making improvisation easy. This particular class will reintroduce some of the basic skills as well as look at your specific needs, requests and fears.
