1. Ice-skating or even roller blading. I keep telling myself . . . 2. Improv
what is your relationship with improv?
Let me try that again. I started improv workshops back in the 00s. Hugh, the improv guru who wrote this ran free drop-in workshops. Improv builds confidence, helps with social skills, teaches you to think on your feet, teaches you to see humour anywhere, and on and on. You?
My family is friends with another family, the "Johnsons," whose son is in the other improv group in town. When tryouts were held for my current improv group, the Johnsons' younger son decided to audition. I've always had a witty sense of humor; my mother encouraged me to audition with him just to try it. I made it on the team without any previous drama experience and have loved it since. Improv has definitely helped with my social confidence and has given me a more positive outlook.
