Ready to have more fun and make new friends?

I thought it was going to be about making up funny skits. I had no idea that taking improv would actually impact other areas of my life. It has taught me to “Say YES!” to more things, to listen more, allow there to be silence (even though that is SO awkward!), and that making a mistake can actually be an opportunity for something awesome.
