As someone who has always admired the quick wit and creativity of improv performers, I often thought about trying it myself. However, self-doubt and the fear of looking silly always held me back. Sound familiar? Then keep reading because I recently took the plunge with a virtual improv workshop, and let me tell you, it was an experience my family and I will never forget!
Stepping Out of Our Comfort Zones: Improv for ALL
When I stumbled upon the “Improv for All” workshop offered by Robert Kline Art, I was intrigued. It seemed like the perfect opportunity to dip my toes into the world of improv from the comfort of my own home. Plus, the idea of getting the whole family involved sounded like a fun and unique way to connect.
We signed up for the workshop not really knowing what to expect. I’m not going to lie; I was a little nervous. What if I froze up? What if I couldn’t think of anything funny to say? But as soon as the workshop began, all my worries melted away.
Laughter, Learning, and Letting Go: The Workshop Experience
Our instructor, Jordana, was absolutely fantastic. She had such a warm and encouraging energy that instantly put everyone at ease. We started with some simple exercises designed to break the ice and get us thinking on our feet. Even my kids, who were initially a little hesitant, were giggling and participating within minutes.
The best part about the workshop was how each exercise built upon the previous one. We gradually stepped outside of our comfort zones, and before we knew it, we were all fully engaged in the world of improv.
A Family Affair: Bonding Through Improv
The workshop wasn’t just about learning the basics of improv; it was about connecting with each other in a whole new way. We laughed, we supported each other, and we created some truly hilarious moments together.
My kids, who are typically glued to their screens, were fully present and engaged throughout the entire workshop. It was amazing to see them come out of their shells and embrace their silly sides.
