      <image:title>About - Amy Sigil - creator</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hi, my name is Amy Sigil and I am the creator of Improv Team Sync. This is an improvisational staging format that can be used for team building, leadership training and movement exploration. Working with lead and follow positions, Improv Team Sync is a way to organize movers in a space, giving opportunities to both lead and listen. These formations change quickly like a game of chess and each player will have to pay close attention. Spacial awareness and team work come into play with every move. A super fun game with opportunities for movement expression, vocalization, reading comprehension and more. I am available for online instruction (hopefully in person soon!) and would be so excited to guide you on your journey through Improv Team Sync using Sigil Vocabulary, your own pre-existing vocabulary, creating vocabulary, improvisation or corporate work. I am available for personal or group coaching.</image:caption>
