Training
It's been 18 years since I first taught
workshops at the San Francisco Circus Center...
Discover, Explore, Deepen our connection to
humor, lightness, joy, absurdity, innocence,and ridiculousness.
Connection. On the inside, to our sense of humor, to our emotional board of directors, and to our joyousness. On the outside, to those we share our expression with, be it a public or intimate situation.
Whether one is a clown, performer, movie actor, therapist, teacher, lawyer, nurse, or just plain interested, participants find fun, their funny, laughter, enhancing their capacity to communicate with lightness, with humor and without words,
To engage humor, I use the artistic platform of physical theater and European clown, widening the perspective by incorporating butoh dance, mime, improvisation, voice work and taoist health exercises. Presence, mindfulness are always in a mix that encourages uplifting and en-lightening styles of humor,a stronger sense of both the dyanamic and subtle aspects of expression. There is a generous dosage of improvisational and creative activity with humor alive, working individually, in duos, trios.
