Positive Reinforcement
“Reward movement toward the behavior you want—and ignore the rest.” It’s a simple principle with profound implications for how we best approach any learning relationship.
Applied Improvisation
The same skills that make great on-stage improvisors — spontaneity, courage, focus, humility, and playfulness — make for resilient and creative teachers and learners as well.
Contemplative Practice
Every moment contains the wisdom we need. Stop. Take a breath. Come back to your body, your knowing, and your ability to connect with others. Take your learning deeper.
Growth Mindset
How we think about learning directly determines what we can learn. Challenge, effort and even failure can become friends. Change your mindset. Change what’s possible.
