"Imagination is more important than knowledge." --Albert Einstein


IN A JOYA CORY WORKSHOP YOU'LL NOT ONLY THINK OUTSIDE THE BOX, YOU'LL FORGET THERE EVER WAS A BOX! 

Using techniques drawn from improvisational theater and growth psychology, we train teams and individuals at companies, schools and/or organizations to become more focused, collaborative, imaginative and joyful in their work and daily life.

We believe that improvisational theater skills are the same skills people need to successfully deal with the common issues facing corporations and/or working groups today: responding to change, building teamwork with people of varying backgrounds, and using creativity to solve problems and to create a more harmonious and productive atmosphere in the workplace.

Our improvisation-based group activities get participants to lead, follow, innovate, and accept new ideas without judgment in a supportive, fun, and safe environment. Participants practice expressing their points of view freely and skillfully.
