I just taught two classes in Tavares, FL, and we all had a blast!
It didn’t take me long to figure out that this group was a little different from most. In the first class one of the students had just had major dental work. So, she was wearing a proper name tag, but also this:
Oh, the poor thing! But, wasn’t it sweet of her friend to make her this extra tag?
This group meets WEEKLY. As a result, they all know one another well and have a wonderful camaraderie. So, maybe I shouldn’t have been surprised, during the IMPROV class, when I caught one of them using a paper cup to draw her circle “by eye.” And even after I caught her she kept using it! As I was playfully reprimanding her, someone pointed out this student:
Yes, that’s a compass. WHAT was up here?!?
And, before I could recover from that shock, the students pointed out what another student brought:
Really? For an IMPROV class???
It was all quite comical. What a sassy, fun bunch of women! Thankfully, they did loosen up and I can’t wait to show you their excellent work.
