Dave Morris is a speaker, teacher, storyteller and improviser. He has his own periodical website called The Way of Improvisation where he has created a guide to using improvisation techniques to improve everyday life. Morris writes, “improvisation is not just a thing, but a way of thinking, a way of living, a way of being.”

Morris explains his theory as he delivers a Tedx Talk to a group of people. Watch below:
