Sunday Gathering - Using Improv to Beat Anxiety
Details
Every week we gather to be inspired, entertained, motivated and build our secular community in Downtown Toronto. This week's speaker is Yitzi Gal. to speak about how improv theatre helped him overcome social anxiety.
YITZI GAL is a faculty member at The Second City Training Centre in Toronto. He is currently attaining his masters degree in Drama Therapy at Concordia University in Montreal. He has also studied Drama Therapy at NYU in New York City. Yitzi teaches improvisation for anxiety classes at Second City as well as other venues around Toronto. Yitzi began taking improv classes nearly ten years ago in order to cope with his own anxiety, and has since graduated from several improvisational theatre programs and has performed in various venues in Toronto, New York, and Montreal.
