4-WEEK INTENSIVE RESIDENTIAL COURSE – Emerson, UK

flyingwith Vivian Gladwell and guests

This 4-week intensive residential course is for anyone interested in exploring clowning either professionally or for personal reason. Professionally clowning might lead to performance work or as clown facilitators (this course is advised for those interested in the upcoming Clown facilitator course in 2019). The course may also be of interest to anyone wishing to use clowning for more personal reasons such as teacher training (i.e. clowning courses are now recognized as modules for the Bachelor, Masters and International Masters courses at the teacher training centers for Waldorf teachers which means their schools can finance the courses)

This course will take participants from Level 2 to level 5 of the Nose to Nose curriculum. The prerequisite is to have done Clown 1 before applying for this course.
