Clowning

Let’s play! This online workshop is for teachers who want to learn what clowning is, refresh their knowledge of Lecoq clowning, and/or learn ways to teach clown safely to young people. Yes, you will need to get up and be a bit silly in the comfort of your own home for this workshop – it's hard to teach clown if you haven't played before!
