4. Improvisation
techniques
• The skills of improvisation can apply to many different abilities or
forms of communication and expression across all artistic,
scientific, physical, cognitive, academic, and non-academic
disciplines. For example, improvisation can make a significant
contribution in music, dance, cooking, presenting a speech, sales,
personal or romantic relationships, sports, flower arranging,
martial arts, psychotherapy, and much more.
• Techniques of improvisation are widely used in training for
performing arts or entertainment; for example, music, theatre and
dance. To "extemporize" or "ad lib" is basically the same as
improvising. Colloquial terms such as "let's play it by the ear",
"take it as it comes", and "make it up as we go along" are all used
to describe "improvisation".
• The simple act of speaking requires a good deal of improvisation
because the mind is addressing its own thought and creating its
unrehearsed delivery in words, sounds and gestures, forming
unpredictable statements that further feed the thought process
(the performer as the listener), creating an enriched process that
is not unlike instantaneous composition [with a given set or
repertoire of elements].[13]

5. Types of improvisational
theatre
• Improvisational theatre, often
called improvisation or improv, is
the form of theatre, often comedy, in
which most or all of what is
performed is unplanned or
unscripted: created spontaneously by
the performers. In its purest form, the
dialogue, action, story, and
characters are created
collaboratively by the players as the
improvisation unfolds in present time,
without use of an already prepared,
written script.

6. Contact Body
Improvisation
• Fundamentals of Contact Improvisation
Contact Improvisation (CI) is a dance technique
in which points of physical contact provide
the starting point for movement
improvisation and exploration. Contact
Improvisation is a form of dance improvisation
and is one of the best-known and most
characteristic forms of postmodern dance.

7. Sound Improvisation
• Improvisation is often done within (or based on) a pre-existing
harmonic framework or chord progression. Improvisation is a
major part of some types of 20th-century music, such as blues,
rock music, jazz, and jazz fusion, in which instrumental
performers improvise solos, melody lines and accompaniment
parts.

8. Theatre improvisation
• Improvisation, in theatre, the playing of dramatic scenes
without written dialogue and with minimal or no predetermined
dramatic activity. The method has been used for different
purposes in theatrical history.

9. Solving
improvisational
challenges
• Real life scenarios such as problem
solving and decision making are
unscripted and involve working with
what you have in the moment. As
such, training in an improvisational
art form is thought to stimulate
creative problem solving.

10. Brief History of
Theatre
• One of the most popular forms of entertainment for
people is a visit to the theater. For centuries people have
enjoyed drama, comedy, music, and other forms of
entertainment. In fact, the history of theater can be
traced back to 6th Century B.C. where the Ancient
Greeks were the first to present dramatic presentations.
