  • サマリー

  • Have you ever wondered if you could improve your parenting?

    When trying to interact with your kids, do you sometimes feel as if you and they are speaking different languages, want different things out of life, and simply don’t see eye to eye?

    Chances are, you’re not alone.

    It seems almost everyone who has been responsible for a child has asked “Is there a better way?”

    We are all either using the tactics, tools and procedures our parents used with us or making things up on the go.

    Neither of these approaches seems to be leading to a better world than the one we currently inhabit.

    That’s where the lessons of improv may offer some opportunities.

    Improv is built on listening, being in the moment, collaboration, and play. Imagine, if you can, how these elements may influence you parenting journey, and the emotional development of your kids.

    I am not a parenting expert, but I am the dad of two neurodivergent kids, and am an improviser, thus I’m living the dream!

    Join me on a journey of discovery as we talk with parents, improvisers, kids, adults who used to be kids, and parenting experts about how improv influenced their parenting, experience being parented, and what promise these lessons may grant to the future of humanity.

    Let’s work together to learn how to Improv Your Parenting, and thus the world.
