Clown Fundamentals Beginners welcome! This 3-day intensive explores presence, play and being seen without needing to perform. Participants are invited to slow down, listen and notice what happens before trying to be funny, clever or &ldquo;good.&rdquo; Clown here is about staying human in moments of uncertainty and discovering how connection and humour emerge from that. Through games, simple scores and short solo turns, students practice arrival, contact and working with failure in a supportive environment. Costumes are introduced as a playful form of pressure, not a performance requirement.Open to all, no experience needed. Just curiosity, a willingness to stay present and a desire to play. 🤡 DATES &amp; TIMES Friday, November 20th - Sunday, November 22ndFriday: 6 - 10 pmSaturday &amp; Sunday: 2 - 6 pm 🤡 COST $250 for all 3 days Reserve your spot for the full weekend by paying a non-refundable 50% deposit on Zeffy. We will send you a link to pay the remaining balance before the start of class. If you would prefer to pay the full amount at once, select this option on Zeffy. Payments can also be made via cash or e-transfer. To discuss alternate payment options, please contact admin@atomcivaudeville.com. If you are unable to attend due to sickness, your deposit can be transferred to the next class. Deposits may only be transferred once, after which point they will be forfeited.&nbsp; Rescheduling for any other reason will incur an administrative fee of $25. We are now using Zeffy to take payments. This is a free platform that doesn&#39;t charge fees, so your money comes directly to AV. When you check out, there is an option to add a tip for Zeffy. This is entirely optional! Please select &#39;other&#39; from the dropdown menu and add a $0 tip.&nbsp; 🤡 ACCESSIBILITY Classes take place at the Atomic Vaudeville studio in Chinatown, Victoria BC. The studio is on the top floor with many stairs. There is also a resident cat in the studio.&nbsp; For anyone taking the class who is part of an immunocompromised community, we welcome you to wear a mask whenever you need, especially when engaging with the group activities and warming up. We do not require mask wearing from all participants because of the importance of facial expressions in the work but the workshop space has a great crossflow, ceiling fans and space for distancing.&nbsp; 🤡 TESTIMONIALS &quot;Thank you for the opportunity to experience myself and others through authenticity. Britt&rsquo;s gifts, knowledge, experience and wisdom are boundless and in 12 hours, I feel like I became a better human, mother and clown. As a trauma therapist who specializes in working with complex trauma and dissociation, I am deeply appreciative of how quickly Britt created an atmosphere of safety and containment throughout. She sees others with care, honesty and joy. Amazing workshop! Thank you.&quot; ✨ &quot;Britt is an extremely gifted Clown, a genius really, and I&#39;m shocked that we have such a talented gem... superhuman, that lives right here in Victoria that chooses to teach people how to unleash their inner clown!!! &nbsp; Her three-day intensive training is hard to explain, you have to experience it yourself to appreciate how powerful it is! &nbsp;Everyone will get different things from this class, and for me, it helped resuscitate my playful, zany and fun spirit and brought me back to life! &nbsp;Britt has a way to reach deep within a person and pull out their inner clown that&#39;s screaming to be unleashed into the world!&quot;

Location: Atomic Vaudeville HQ - 1618 1/2 Government Street&nbsp;(up to the very top of the stairs, left door) Text or call - &nbsp;250-885-2837 (Britt) or 778-676-5492 (Kathleen) if you are lost or locked out. Please bring a water bottle and a snack. There will be a break midway through each day, which is usually enough time to grab something at one of the surrounding cafes.&nbsp; For anyone taking the class who is part of an immunocompromised community, we welcome you to wear a mask whenever you need, especially when engaging with the group activities and warming up. We do not require mask wearing from all participants because of the importance of facial expressions in the work, but the workshop space has a great crossflow, ceiling fans and space for distancing. The (usually unmasked) solo clown turns take place with distance between clown and audience. Please stay home if you are feeling sick, and COVID tests are still available for free at pharmacies in BC. Please wear loose comfortable clothing for movement and be prepared to go barefoot if you are comfortable with that.&nbsp; There are lots of costume items and props available in the space, but you can bring anything that you would like to wear for your clown if you don&#39;t feel good about sharing clothing or hats.&nbsp; If you have any questions, please contact Britt at <a fr-original-style="" href="mailto:brittsmall@atomicvaudeville.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" style="text-decoration-color: currentcolor; user-select: auto; box-sizing: inherit;" target="_blank">brittsmall@atomicvaudeville.com</a>.
