Of ik nu al van nut kan zijn, denk ik niet. Ik heb net de basiscursus Impro moeten staken i.v.m. problemen aan het thuisfront. Als troost lees ik nu maar "Impro for Storytellers" om toch nog wat op te steken.
Maar ik wil graag een herstart maken,...

- Dear Raymond, the last two weeks are still open. I've no idea where to find Pokahara in Nepal (I will look it up later today), but as said we're open to a good improvisation for the last two weeks in Nepal. Best regards, Joep

- Dear Raymond, a cup of tea in the environment of Utrecht is fine. Will have to aim for December though. Will start a new job November 1st and will also go to Nepal for three weeks in November / December (Appreciative Inquiry conference and holidays). But would really enjoy meeting somewhere in December. Best regards, Joep

- Hi Raymond, I hope zou enjoied zour stay here in Indonesia. The improv class here in Yogya started a little lame. Just four actors showed up, but a little dicussion revealed, that the class was just too expansive (due to the rent I had to pay). Now that I found a much cheaper room, there is a class of 7 that really enjoyes improv. We train twice a week and due to the cheap conditions, it will go for 6 weeks. Because improv is completely new in Indonesia, I decided not to explain what is done in a show but to start with practice and little games immediately. It works great, mainly, because most of the team are experienced actors who are not shy at all but very brave. bAfter having learned about accepting, offers, step bz step and status we will have a look at what makes a good story today.
I hope you are fine,
Mike

Maanwilla van der Horst said… - Hi Raymond,
Yes, I also look back to your training with astonishment and a smile on my face. I was supprised about the first serious attitudes, which turned out to be just a 'mask'. I learned a lot and had a lot of fun.
Let's write a letter to Santa Claus to ask him if he can give us an extra week in time this year. What do you think, would that give us some spare time to a brainstormsession soon?
Enjoy your day and have a good weekend! Gooi Millies they say in South Africa. Which means; make fun.
