Relationships
Our lives are a composed of a large mix of relationships. Since we are constantly in relationship with other people - both directly and indirectly - a greater understanding of the underlying dynamics at play provides a platform to deepen connections, enhance trust, take cooperation to a new level, an explore ways to say things that are hard to say.
Details:
At the root of the most successful and exciting relationships are: open communication, playfulness, honesty, boldness, sharing, contribution, agreement, and acceptance.
These are also the core elements of improv comedy. Experiencing relationship dynamics through improv is one of the easiest, most effective ways to hone these skills.
