improvisation

The act of responding in a given moment.Improvisation promotes behaviors or reactions and

a heightened way of communicating.

In any given moment, how you choose to act or respond is improvisation.

Whether it be theatrical, playing music or dancing, if there is no script to follow, you are creating something from nothing.

Improvisation happens when a moment is created. How you choose to act in that moment is an opportunity. An opportunity to create something that matters. Are you meeting your moments equipped to reap the rewards or walking away empty handed?-Kristy A. Oliver
