Graduates of our workshops confirm,
that they are now able to face unfamiliar situations with a calm and relaxed mind, which allows them to deeply draw upon their own spontaneity and authenticity. They became curious again about the unpredictability of life (“Director Chance ) and the daily challenges. In today”s economy, effective communication and social competence are quickly gaining recognition in addition to analytic and solution-oriented thinking. These skills require spontaneity, the ability to react quickly to new situations, creativity and humor. The innovative recipe to realizing these goals consists of improvised theatre play, i.e. to play out concerns, fears, hopes and love of life. Play with your whole body, with your voice, eyes, language, breath, with tragic and comic roles, bring out the joy of experimenting and improvising, laugh about creative failure till you drop! Everything is good, mistakes are welcome, and there is no pressure that could hold back your own true expressivity. And suddenly it is here: the melting away of the creative block. You feel the power, the look, the breath, and the confidence to have the right response to whatever life throws at you.
