My First Improv Workshop
I did an improv workshop for Aaron’s Intro to Entrepreneurship class at the local college. It was my first time on the teaching end of improv and it really brought home for me just how much improv has changed my life, and I am still very much a novice.
A year ago, I would’ve been extremely uncomfortable getting up in front of an audience like that. I still get nervous in public speaking situations but I find that it’s an excitement energy instead of a fear energy.
I love improv’s power to change people in positive ways–in just a two hour workshop, everyone was noticeably more open in their body language and more comfortable being the center of attention. From shyness and fear to comfort and confidence–it’s a beautiful thing to see and feel in a human being.
