Thanks for your interest in Living Improv.
Please note that I will be out on maternity leave until January 2024 and so there won’t be any Living Improv groups until after I am back.
If you are interested in a future Living Improv group, please e-mail Ali Kimmell at ali@bayareagroupcenter.com and she will place you on a waitlist and I will be in touch with you when I return.
If you'd like to sign up for the Living Improv mailing list so you can find out about upcoming groups, you can do so here: http://eepurl.com/bHsJaz

What is Living Improv℠?
Improvisational theater, also known as improv, is an art form in which actors create scenes, characters, plot and dialogue on the spot and in the moment. Living Improv Groups pairs improvisational theater techniques with a facilitated process group. In the first hour we play improv games and exercises and in the second hour we sit down together to talk about our experiences and give and receive feedback. Living Improv℠ is both a method to learn more about oneself and a way to gain tangible tools to enhance aspects of everyday life such as personal relationships, family, career or school. All groups are facilitated by two licensed clinical social workers who have a background in improvisational theater.
Why improv?
The principles that help actors improvise scenes and stories, are the same principles that help people live their everyday lives with grace, joy, and acceptance. This is because life is improvised. In everyday life, we never know what will happen next and we don’t have a script to follow.
Who is Living Improv℠ for?
If you struggle with anxiety, mild depression, social anxiety, perfectionism, self-criticism, or doubt, or you’d simply like to learn more about yourself and connect with others in a playful and unique therapeutic environment, then Living Improv℠ might be a great fit for you. There is no need to have a prior background in theater or acting, or to be witty or funny.
Some benefits of improv:
-Increased Confidence
-Feelings of Joy and Happiness
-Deeper and More Authentic Relationships
-Enhanced Empathy and Connection
-Increased Focus, Concentration and Letting go of Ruminating Thoughts
-Ability to be Flexible and Adapt to Change
-Increased Energy
-Better Public Speaking Skills
-Overcoming Perfectionism and Fear of Failure
-Open-Mindedness to Others Perspectives and Ideas
-Self-Awareness of Emotions
-Acceptance of the Present Moment
-Feelings of Gratitude
-Ability to Take Risks, be Yourself and be Courageous
-Follow-Through on One’s Intuition and Creative Ideas
-More Life Adventures and an Overall Sense of Fun
