Leaving Your Creative Footprint: Heels and All!

Drawing on extensive experience in theatre arts and reflecting a true passion for improvisational comedy, the Brave New Workshop’s all-women team brings a unique approach to women’s creative confidence. In a field dominated by male talent, our BNW comedy superstars have built successful careers, fostered an authentic sense of confidence in their own ideas and learned how to present them in an undeniable way.

By simply following the basic philosophical and tactical premise of improvisation, our exemplary female improvisers leave their creative footprint every day, heels and all! Using exceptional tools, stories and practical steps, they will help you to hone your creative confidence; trust your intuition and creative potential; and deliver your ideas with lasting impact.

The BNW team sprinkles highly entertaining keynotes and workshop sessions with plenty of humor to highlight the following key learning points:

  • Say “Yes, and!” to yourself. Trust yourself to put your ideas forward and declare a clear point of view free of self-judgment.
  • Practice viewing your ideas as gifts and improve your presentations skills and natural charisma.
  • Find the sense of play in your everyday work and use your sense of humor to help build confidence.
  • Be your best self. Embrace who you are as a person rather than surrendering to prevalent stereotypes or outside pressures that endanger individuality. Focus on your ideas and contributions.

Participants are engaged through interactive exercises that emphasize content, stimulate discussion and bridge the art form of improvisation to the business world. Our skillful instructors are unmatched at creating a safe environment of learning, tolerance and play.
