History

The Improv Mindset was first developed by On Your Feet Co-Founder Robert Poynton.

Over two decades, the Improv Mindset has been refined by On Your Feet’s staff of improv performers, facilitators, artists, business professors, and scientists, and it remains one of our always-in-demand trainings.

We believe this mindset will bring you more joy, less fear, and better results in your work and life.
