Community
The On the Fly community is the heart of our organisation. We work together to achieve our goals. We empower the community to be heard, to make change and to take action. We provide space to build and nurture interpersonal relationships. We acknowledge our part in many wider communities and use our voice and our power to provide support. Inclusion We believe that everyone can benefit from impro. We accept and make space for every person who believes in our values and has a willingness to learn. We know that including people of diverse backgrounds and experiences leads to a cohort with diverse thought which leads to better impro. We acknowledge the barriers that exist for many people to join our community and actively provide opportunities that address these. Play We believe in the power of creativity and the freeing nature of engaging in play. We collectively provide a space where everyone can explore, experiment and find joy. We encourage and support anyone engaging in earnest play. |
Respect
We show respect by listening to, acknowledging and engaging each other. We take the time to check in with each other. We respect each other’s boundaries. We build a space where people are safe to bring their whole selves to their learning, their performances and their social interactions. We support and uplift people for having a try. Integrity We are honest and transparent in all of our dealings. We own up to our failures and make amends. We support each other and don’t tear anyone down. We take all feedback on board and respond consistently and accordingly. We work together and ask for help when we need it. Continual Improvement We regularly reflect, review and refine our processes, our curriculum and our values to ensure we achieve our goals. We keep aware of industry standards and apply these to our work when necessary. We provide opportunities for our students to hone their abilities through classes, coaching and performance opportunities. |
