About The Event
In this 90-minute interactive workshop, you'll use the core principles of improvisational theatre—"Yes, And," active listening, and playful adaptation—to transform parenting challenges into moments of connection. Learn to:
Reduce friction by accepting your child's reality before navigating it.
Decode big emotions by listening beyond the words.
Build confidence & cooperation by becoming your child's greatest scene partner.
This isn't more advice; it's about a new mindset. Leave with practical tools to create a more playful, present, and resilient family dynamic.
