About this class
Yes-and is a principle from improv comedy, but it's also just good communication: listen to what someone actually says, accept their premise, and build on it instead of redirecting. This two-hour workshop uses improv exercises to teach active listening, staying present in a conversation without rehearsing your next line, and recovering gracefully when things go sideways. It's taught by a Magnet house team performer who has been using these skills in shows for years. The class is structured around exercises and mini-scenes rather than a lecture. Business teams and individuals who present publicly find it particularly useful. No prior improv experience or interest in performing required.
