Have You Met TED?

Here’s what happened.

Back to School
Well, hard as I tried to fight it, the back-to-school bug bit me, too. I don’t know … something about the change in the weather has me buying office supplies, unpacking my sweatshirts and yearning for learning. So (for those of you in the Twin Cities area) I’m offering my first four-week class focused on,of course, spontaneous singing. Click here to learn more.
Hurry! Class starts Tuesday, Sept. 23.
To the Bride and Groom
My sister got married this past weekend. My brother was the officiant and I (surprise, surprise) was asked to sing. The ceremony was beautiful and it included many improvisational moments from the impromptu announcement from the bride that she was not late for her groom (her secret arrival had proved a little too secret) to the many breaks to dry tears and collect thoughts.
What struck me most throughout the day was everyone’s willingness to be vulnerable and authentic. Vulnerability and authenticity are two important factors in making improv (and lots of other things in life) work.
