Summer Improv to the Rescue (ITTR) by Barbara Colaciello | BABS'LAB

UNLOCK YOUR INTUITION. TELL YOUR STORY. LEAD WITH CONFIDENCE. ACT WITH EASE.

Join the BABS'LAB signature class, praised by business professionals, artists, educators, and performers throughout Jacksonville. Improv to the Rescue is a dynamic, intuition-based training experience designed to strengthen spontaneity, storytelling, authentic communication, and presence through improvisation.

Created by Barbara Colaciello and shaped through more than 30 years of teaching experience, this 5-week summer session welcomes both new and returning students. New students will learn the foundational vocabulary and principles of improvisation, while experienced players will continue to deepen their skills through more advanced exploration.

Together we will explore:

• Intuition-based improvisation

• Embodied storytelling

• Active listening and emotional connection

• Comedy rooted in truthful behavior

• Rhythm, imagery, gesture, and voice

• Confidence for acting, storytelling, leadership, and public speaking

Barbara continuously challenges experienced players while modifying exercises to support newer students, creating a collaborative environment where everyone can grow.

A class for curious, courageous people ready to stretch, discover, and create.
