Clown at 1.5m Distance

The Joyful School helps you develop your acting skills, body awareness, and creativity through improvisation and physical theater training.

In this 2day workshop, you will have an overview of The Four Articulations, a method developed by the clown and acrobat Dr. Ira Seidenstein. The Four Articulations (space, time, body, space-time continuum) are a sequence of movements to warm up your mind-body connection, and an ensemble of physical theater exercises to awaken your creativity. These exercises are meant to be done solo or distant duo.

You will have the opportunity to unleash your clown spirit with the support of the group!
