Do you want to hold space for joy in all interactions?

Balancing care with emotional wellbeing is challenging...

The clown therapist is a guide for healthcare workers, wellbeing professionals, and educators.

You'll spend a weekend getting the tools you need to use humour effectively in your profession.

You'll reconnect with simple joys.
β€œI find beauty and laughter in mundane moments.”
Todd O - Carer

And bring laughter back to your work.
"A fresh approach to empathy & connection."
Simone L - Physiotherapist

It’s easy to get caught up in the technicalities of treatment or teaching, leaving little space for the connections that nurture healing and education.

This guide to clowning provides strategies to hold space for joy, offer comfort, and untangle complex emotions through creative expression.

You'll recharge empathy and uplift others with humour and sensitivity, even in the most challenging circumstances.

Your skills of observation will be sharpened as you respond to the subtle emotional and physical cues of others.

These clowning techniques could be the antidote to your emotional fatigue and burnout at work.

You'll be guided by Alicia Gonzalez, Artistic Director of The Clown Institute.
She is specialist in Therapeutic Clowning with years of hands-on experience working in healthcare environments.

This class is built on the belief that laughter is a tool for healing and connection.
So, your clowning for healthcare and wellbeing class will cover:

πŸ”΄ Essential communication and empathy skills
πŸ”΄ Tips to revitalise care and connection
πŸ”΄ Introducing laughter into your work
πŸ”΄ Stress reduction strategies
πŸ”΄ Building confidence and resilience
