WHAT -

This Online session is dedicated to trying and exploring how to use vulnerability to our advantage. Also, to understand how listening patterns, pauses and breathwork play their role in this context. Eventually, we will focus on using all these 3 aspects to improvise thoroughly engaging scenes with better awareness.

The design incorporates- 

1. Frameworks to navigate vulnerable situations joyfully without feeling overwhelmed.
2. Finer Aspects of scene work like listening, pauses, breathwork, etc.
3. Nourishing the ability to exhibit a variety of characters, wants, emotions, etc.

Suitable for - 

1. People who want to explore improv experiences or have just started attending jams/workshops.
2. People who have been performing/teaching/enjoying Improv for a while after finishing their basic course. You may explore a different perspective, revisit old exercises, learn new ones, and polish your skills.
3. People who want to learn and nourish basic frameworks for long-form improv scenes and narrative formats.

WHY -

Working on the above-mentioned elements in the design would help us to -

1. Be more interested in the scene and care less about being interesting.
2. Make our fellow players look better while smoothly maintaining each other's boundaries.
3. Explore, have fun, and share the joy of improv.

HOW -

This session of 90 minutes will give us considerable time to explore and realize how the finer aspects affect us as performers. We will evolve the exercises gradually and benchmark each individual’s progress at different steps.
