I LEVEL - Intensive Workshop

The Clown Dynamic

What is Clown? What does Clown attract us? And what do you expect from a Clown?

Description

There are many ways to get closer to the Clown, this path intends to face the smallest mask of universes, not as a character but as a process. There is a place where everything seems possible and this is the inner place where one's own Clown lives, a magical place where mind, body and heart live a relationship free of structures. I fall in love every time I find myself in this place. The course suggests a path towards this place; it is a free place where the rules exist, but where it is not always the right thing to respect them.
It is a work that requires mental, physical and emotional honesty, a work that needs practice and presence. The proposed training is suitable for anyone: actors, dancers, performers, clowns or others. It addresses three great areas: physical, emotional and mental. Each evening includes a first part of training and a second part of improvisation guided clown. To anyone who wants to take part in this workshop, I advise not to be in a hurry and to set out on the way towards the own clown in the same way one embarks on a spiritual journey.
I'm not interested in making people laugh, I'm passionate about the human being, his functioning, his problems, his brain, his abilities, his limits, his emotions; more generally we can sum up by saying: his dynamics. All this is very funny, but often we don't see it.

The main theme of the seminar will be metamorphosis: a basic element of creation in the arts in general, but especially for the Clown.  Will be explored the The Clown Dynamic.

The course includes: physical training, meditations, improvisations, tears and smiles.
