Improv is not about being funny. And you don't need to be to work with us.
Most people think improv is for comedians. Or Kenny G.
But the truth is improvisation is a set of skills and techniques that can help anyone react and adapt more quickly and confidently in any situation.
And learn to communicate and collaborate at a higher level.
At PowerProv we’ll never expect you to be funny, put you on the spot, or assume you’re an extrovert.
We’ll just help you perform where it matters most – at work and in life.
Join the thousands of people who love our fun team building activities.
Improved leadership, mindfulness, communication, innovation and teamwork await.
Think so fast on your feet people will think you’re on something else.
Transcend the thinking process and learn to knock on the door of instinct and intuition.
When most people think of improvisation, they think of comedy, but there’s more to improv than making stuff up and having a laugh.
Improv is all about learning to “React, Adapt & Communicate,” as well as stay focused, especially when the unexpected occurs.
To do this well, we need to get out of our heads and get into the moment. And learn to trust ourselves and each other.
Specific Outcomes You Can Expect:
- Listen actively with full engagement
- Read a room and understand body language
- Use the “Yes, and…” technique to build ideas and have better conversations
- Take initiative and validate other’s ideas
- Work collaboratively as an ensemble
- Be less judgmental and avoid unhealthy competition
- Be nimble and agile when the unexpected happens
- Respond to, and even embrace mistakes
- Innovate with divergent and convergent thinking
- Think faster and stop second-guessing
- Enjoy newfound authenticity and mindfulness
It’s like jiu-jitsu for your communication skills. Except nobody gets hurt.
No comedians or clowns.
Unlike the training you’ll get from a comedy school or improv theatre where the focus is on performing and being funny, PowerPov workshops are led by highly-trained facilitators with relatable work experience.
This means we can frame our unique curriculum around your personal goals and desired outcomes. And you’ll be learning from Pros who practice what they teach in the real world.
No pressure to perform.
If you book a workshop with an improv theatre they’ll expect you to put on a show. And while conquering stage fright can be freeing and fun, most people just want to perform better at work and in life.
We will challenge you, but we’ll never force you to be funny on demand. And we’ll always make sure you feel supported and successful as you acquire new tools to help you perform where it counts.
“Success comes more easily when you know how to listen, collaborate, respond to failure, and adapt when the unexpected happens.”
