Testimonials:
"Jon Trevor delivered a fantastic, unexpected and truly rewarding session. What on the surface felt like ‘play’ was valuable in helping the group understand how we can work positively and effectively both individually and within our teams and organisations. Well worth investing in. "
Janu Miah, People & Organisational Development, MARIE CURIE CANCER CARE
“I think the lessons of the day will be realised not immediately but in years to come as the trainees mature, they will realise the benefits and lessons of the day. Just like Mr Miyagi from the original Karate Kid film where his student performed mundane chores such as cleaning a car with “Wax on, Wax off” and was secretly preparing him with this unorthodox method. Likewise, with Applied Improvisation the lessons are immediately less tangible, but the skills elicited will prove to being applicable to our clinical work as well as having potential benefits for our personal relationships with colleagues, families and spouses.”
Dr Sarby Soorae, North Birmingham VTS, GP Training Program Director
A big thank you to you, Jon. What a great way to inaugurate our learning and collaborative space. It was a memorable experience which was also very appropriate for us in that, like what we wish to do in our new building, it involved people being able to express themselves explicitly in a supportive environment. The simple exercises were provocative and energising at the same time. I am still thinking about this…

About:
I am passionate about the power of Applied Improvisation to bring about profound and extraordinary change in groups and individuals. I use Applied Improv as a key element of my work as a soft-skills and interpersonal communications specialist, and it informs every aspect of my training even when it is not the primary focus.
Using the tools of AI, I can help hesitant speakers become powerful and passionate presenters, I can turn frontline staff into customer-delighting champions, and transform a group of colleagues into a dynamic and high-functioning team.
In fact, such is the power of Applied Improv, that even so-called mundane training courses become lived and unforgettable learning experiences for participants.
