Beyond the basement

You don’t have to be fast, funny or clever

A lot of people think improv is all about being quick-witted and hilarious. Maybe that’s why you and so many other people find it intimidating. But what if improv could be something else? Something gentler, more reflective, and actually supportive of who you are?

In this episode, I break down five key ways my improv workshops are different. They’re not about pressure or performance - they’re about presence. They’re trauma-informed, embodied, and deeply connected to life beyond the stage. Because improv isn’t just a skill; it’s a way of navigating the world. And sometimes, stepping into an improv space means stepping into something bigger: self-trust, connection, and healing.

If you’ve ever been curious about improv but assumed it wasn’t for you, this episode might just change your mind.
