And then a 10-week class June 2-July 29th.

Comedy Improv: Laughter as Good Medicine with Carrie Blubaugh, MS, PT

Wednesdays, June 3-24 • 3-4:15 p.m.

In person at Turning Point 8900 State Line Road, Suite 240, Leawood, KS

Improv theater is unscripted collaborative storytelling. This interactive class utilizes improv activities in a therapeutic, fun and meaningful way to create connection through laughter and storytelling. No theater experience is necessary.

It is well-documented that laughter is good medicine with numerous mental,
emotional and physical benefits and that social connection and engagement
increases longevity.

Improv has many researched benefits: improved listening, empathy, adaptability and flexibility, increased trust, support and spontaneity. It enhances communication skills by activating language and creativity centers in the brain and promotes memory skills. Improv helps decrease stress, anxiety and uncertainty intolerance and it increases confidence and problem solving. And ... it’s fun!

This was such a delightful experience.

I love connecting and talking about an improv mindset, life transitions, perfectionism and all this things!
Karen has a great project happening with Second Wind Women.

It's hard to believe this is the 4th group of improv students I've taught through Johnson County Parks and Rec 50+ program! Our first session was summer 2024.
Teaching the classes has been so very fun.
Getting to know incredibly interesting, smart, accomplished, funny, cool people is such a wonderful gift.

One never knows for sure how a comedy improv student showcase will go....
And they kill it every single time!
Fall 2025 level 1 and level 2 classes were small and mighty!!

Great show, wonderful people, fun night.
