SUMMARY:No-Mind Improv: Get Out Of Your Head! with Chad O'Bara
DESCRIPTION:Join veteran improviser Chad O’Bara for a specialty class designed to get you out of your head and back to the pure joy of spontaneity! \n\n\n\n\nStop thinking. Start reacting. After years of learning the “rules\,” it’s time to trust your training enough to let it go. Join veteran improviser Chad O’Bara for a 4-hour specialty class designed to help you bypass the internal critic and return to the pure joy of spontaneous\, high-stakes play.\nThis workshop is inspired by the philosophy of No-Mind championed by Bruce Lee\, a state of peak performance where the mind does not think\, it merely reacts. Using Chad’s signature “from-the-gut” approach\, you’ll explore exercises and techniques designed to help you stop “working” the scene and start living it. This is the ultimate opportunity for experienced students and program graduates to shed conscious habits and rediscover the thrill of free-falling.\nElevate Your Craft: \n\nIntuitive Reactivity: Move beyond “calculating” your next move and learn to trust your immediate\, raw instincts.\nBreak the Patterns: Identify and shed the cerebral habits that keep your scenes “safe\,” moving instead toward bold\, authentic choices.\nRadical Presence: Silence the mental chatter to become more deeply connected to your partner and the environment.\n\nReady to get out of your head? Reclaim the freedom of the gut reaction in a high-energy\, anxiety-free environment.\n\nNote: This class includes a one-hour lunch break\, with four hours of instruction.Date and Time: 1 day only\, Sunday\, Jun 28\, 10:30am to 3:30pm \nAge Requirements: 18+ \n**Cancellation policy: If you must cancel before the workshop\, we offer credit only towards a future class or workshop. We are unable to offer refunds. If you do not attend the workshop\, we will not offer credit toward a future class or workshop. Again\, we are unable to offer refunds. You must cancel 72 hours before the workshop class starts.
