«The Ways of the Clown»
Détails de l'événement
April 29th to May 3rd, 2026
This international Essential Clown workshop, the only intensive format that Alain offers in Europe, is a surprising encounter with our most authentic being. Thanks to this little “red mask”, we will discover how the fear of “not belonging to the world” leads us to hide in the depths of our feelings that are ultimately the most shared by all humans.
We can joyfully celebrate our shame, regain our dignity and enjoy the sweet rest of belonging to the world without having to hide our inner self.
The Clown’s crown jewels:
listening, trust, presence and freedom,,
will be embarked on this adventure. The clowns treasure chest will be enriched by spontaneity, imagination, dignity, creativity, music and other wonders.
The proposed work will include:
- Playful exercises on contact dynamics, expression and staging
- An initiation with “the self on stage”
- Experiencing the vitality of the inner child
- Attending to one´s one body, feelings and imagination
- Listening to others and the group
- Exploring really listening to music and to silence
- Opening up and Sharing… Sharing and opening up!
