The problem with Improv

Hola,

I am looking for some help from anyone out there willing to give it.

I am studying improv at the moment, with the hopes of earning a Theatre Performance Certificate.

Anyway, we learn in our improv classes that saying no to any offer is a huge faux pas, and therefore shouldn't be done.

And don't we discover Starr's problem with not being able to say yes...

So, what I am wondering is if there is anyone out there who is studying/did study improv, and had the same problem, and was able to overcome it. And if so, if they could share their wisdom.

Or if there's a person out there who is an improv genius, and never had a problem with the word no, who could shed some light on their ability to avoid that mean little word...

I would really appreciate any help!

Cheers :)
