Hi all,
Here are some ideas for increasing the use of varied rhythms in improv. One thing I didn't mention in the lesson; use of space and accents is very important as well!!!! Enjoy.

Hi Gang,
Since we all seem to know the birthdays of our esteemed pros (both living and deceased) and we take a moment to recognize them, we, at the same time, do not have in our profiles the birthdates of our ever growing membership. Thought I would kick that off today with this announcement:
I am 75 years of age as of yesterday, Feb 11, and am proud to be able to announce that and very happy that I am physically here to experience it.
