Behind Creatio Ex Improv you find Jenifer Yáñez Villahermosa. 

Jenifer is a professional musician, improv trainer and researcher based in Groningen (NL) whose passion is creating things from scratch and developing playful and creative practices for and with groups. 

Using improvisational theatre as a basis, Jenifer focuses her practice as educator/researcher on developing modules to implement in Higher Education which facilitate the development of skills such as stage presence, communication, expressiveness, as well as a more positive and resilient mindset. Some of these modules are currently implemented at Prins Claus Conservatorium and the Honours College of the University of Groningen.
