A note for #improvisers and #actors while in your #improvclasses - learn to control your face and learn to watch others' faces. Non-verbal #communication starts with the #face as Tim Roth from the #tv show "Lie to Me" explains:

When we #improvise we always bring our #psychology with us. Most of us like being the star of our own stories, but #teamwork and #collaboration require a more selfless approach to #improv #comedy or improv #drama. Make others look better and THEN you'll be the star.

Getting better at #improvisation in your #improvclass starts with emptying the mind. A chaotic mind kills good #improv so we learn how to #meditate on the present moment to clear our mind of thoughts. By doing do, we become present for what others are saying and really #hear them!
