P.S. I would love to talk to you about your conference experience. It sounds like the conference was a lot of fun!

Hi Mira! I would love to be fb friends! (Though I'm honestly not sure which Whitney I am on there either!) I think you can search for Whitney Johnson - Southern Illinois University Carbondale, and I believe that should do it. (My picture is a Dali that looks like Mae West, just in case!) I hope you're well and it's so good to hear from you! We sure do miss you in improv class. Any chance you'll come back and play??? Wanna go see a Brody show some weekend? Just let me know!

All the best,

Whitney

Hi Mira, how have you been doing? And how is the poetry going? Have jumped into any improv in P-land?

Hello honey! Hope you find that contact teacher you are looking for... The other movement class you might want to look into in the portland area is "stretchappeal" at Bodyvox Dance studio... it might be a good limberer upper if you were going to get deeply into the contact world.

Wow! I'm excited that you've connected to Joel. I adore a lot of his "Insight Improv" work -- especially "psolodrama." Hope to see you on Wed. at the ArtsRising.net potluck. Please pass the word to others. In a few minutes Christopher will try to send the invite through this site
