Want a deep dive into your clown?

Effortless Clown - An irresponsible & irresistible spa for you & your clown

In the path of clowning, there are phases where we care a lot, try to be good, put in a lot of impatient effort and expect results. And there are also phases to take a break and remember that real play comes from an irresponsible place. 

What is effortless clown? It’s a space reconnect with play with no responsibility - free impulsive clown play. Not to care much, because there’s no need to. How? Using quite a few paradoxical clown games in which by losing you win, by getting lost you find your clown more alive than ever.
