Playful Presence
Improv and Mindfulness Workshop
Next workshop:
TBA


Improvisation is, at its core, a mindfulness practice. The improviser is fully present in the moment, letting go again and again of impulses to plan or control. We cultivate a trust in the unnamed thing that is arising between the players.

Building on the natural affinity that formal practice and improvisation already possess, a delicious synergy happens, creating a wonderful container for the practice of improv.

This two hour workshop begins with basic mindfulness exercises and leads into meditative and playful games and scenes. Whether you are a seasoned improviser or new to the practice,  you are sure to leave with new tools to enrich your life and satisfy your soul.

This event is offered on a sliding scale, from $15-$25. Please pay what you can afford.
You may also make a donation to help support those unable to pay the full price.

This class is co-taught by Pez Owen, mindfulness coach, and
Taj Baker, improv teacher and applied improv facilitator.
