IMPROV THERAPY WITH STILL LISTENING
"Improv Therapy: Change through Connection, Play and Storytelling."
Improv Therapy
An experiential workshop in connection, play and storytelling
What happens when improvisation and therapeutic practice are brought together?
Led by improviser and Counselling Therapist Anthony Goodwin, this three-part workshop uses structured improv exercises, embodied activities, storytelling, discussion, and reflection.
Drawing on established practices from improvisation, community-based theatre, experiential learning, and therapy, participants will practise listening, spontaneity, empathy, perspective-taking, and working safely with vulnerability.
Each activity creatively explores lived experience, followed by group reflection on how it connects to our values and patterns of thinking, feeling, behaving, and relating. Through trust, play, and shared exploration, participants can risk being seen as they are and explore their capacity for connection, change, and growth.
This practical group workshop uses improv and storytelling to build community and strengthen authenticity, empathy, self-awareness, and confidence in how we relate to ourselves and others.
CLOWNPROV: THE SEQUEL
John Battye and Christine Lesiak team up for this 3-hour workshop to explore how clowning and improv create a beautiful comedy baby. Play, follow your impulses, and stumble into discoveries you couldn’t have planned if you tried. Come for the chaos, stay for the connection. Using core clown techniques—presence, honesty, and deep listening—we’ll shake up your usual improv habits and find the fun faster. We will demystify how to find those weird little moments that somehow get the biggest laughs and give you more tools for your belt. You’ll be pushed to find new ways to create lively, animated scenes that maintain clear focus and delight your audiences. This workshop is for intermediate-and-above improvisers who are ready to play and be more alive on stage.
