ClownCraft for Dancers: Oslo 2026Bridging the Architecture of Dance with the Heart of the Clown
A Special Intensive for Dancers & Movement Artists
I am thrilled to announce a dedicated training week designed specifically for dancers who want to explore the craft of clowning and reinvent their own artistic expression. Having worked closely with many dancers, I see a profound common ground between these two forms—and a massive potential for transformation.
This week is about building a bridge between the discipline of the body and the vulnerability of the spirit.
✨ The Artistic Challenge
Dancers are often trained in the "neutral face," focusing on technical expression. There is so much gold to be found by opening up—moving beyond the technique to let the audience in.
The Gaze: Learn to be truly seen and let your movement be guided by the audience's breath.
The Fusion: Honor your dance background while challenging it with the spontaneity of the clown.
The Encounter: Transform "performance" into a "soul-to-soul" connection.
💙 Special Needs & Social Artistry
A key part of this week is dedicated to dancers who wish to bring their art to adults and children with special needs.
Adaptive Movement: I will share specific exercises and skills that allow you to reach audiences in hospitals, care centers, and specialized schools.
Somatic Resonance: Learn how to use your physical mastery to create a sense of safety and joy for those who experience the world differently.
The Art of the Visit: We will explore how to use the clown’s "Yes, And" to turn a simple movement into a shared, healing moment.
👤 Who is this for?
Professional Dancers looking to expand their performance range.
Choreographers are interested in the emotional "why" behind movement.
Movement Artists who want to use their skills to make a difference in the lives of children and adults with special needs.
