Shawn is a terrific improvisation coach. He is very good at creating a safe and trusting environment where players can thrive. He always comes up with great warm up exercises and keeps the practice exciting and fun. I particularly value his suggestions and feedback, which always help me be more in the moment and follow my instincts.
