Get Out of Your Head: Use Improv to Ease Social Anxiety

Descripción

Do you overthink what to say in social situations? Feel stuck in your head before a meeting, a date, or even small talk? You’re not alone—and improv might be the last thing you expect to help. But it works. This course is for anyone who wants to feel more present, relaxed, and confident around other people. Using simple solo improv exercises—no audience, no pressure—you’ll learn how to quiet your inner critic, loosen up, and get out of your head. You don’t need any acting or improv experience. These are short, approachable exercises anyone can do from home, designed to help you shift your energy, connect more easily, and stop second-guessing yourself so much. I’m Gary—an actor and improv teacher with credits including Night Court, 2 Broke Girls, and Parks and Recreation. I’ve taught improv to beginners, professionals, and people who just want to feel more like themselves again. This course is fun, supportive, and designed to help you build real-life confidence—not stage confidence.
