    THE INVITATION:

    You are invited to join this in-person, weekend-long workshop facilitated by Zuma Puma (founder of Clownlife) exploring the worlds of contemporary clowning, psychomagic, ritual theatre and ceremony in Bristol.

    This weekend will offer an introduction to the embodied practices of contemporary Clown and the pedagogy of Zuma Puma and her research in Clown and Ritual, Ceremony and Psychomagic.

    We will be working with Clown as a gateway into unlocking our full expression, exploring how this way of engaging with life can connect us to something beyond ourselves and furthermore offer an opportunity for deeper transformation and life experience.

    After a long break from these in person weekend workshops, I’m excited to re-connect and dive into this transformative work together. This time bringing our collective imagination, intention and expression to make and create some powerful spells not only to guide us in our performance and theatrical practices but for connecting to something bigger.


    The invitation here is to work with ritual and ceremony to open the space within ourselves to move whatever is alive in us now, to let go of what is no longer serving and receive what it is we need going forward. Diving into the depths of our collective imagination we will work with intention, psychomagic, ritual theatre and clown to open a space for healing and deep transformation not only for ourselves but for the world beyond. And to have a ridiculously fun time together ;p (but that goes without saying).


    WHAT YOU WILL GET FROM THE COURSE:

    THE CLOWNLIFE PEDAGOGY:


    The Clownlife pedagogy is focused on self research through the art and practice of clown with a strong focus on well-being and mindful living, honouring and uplifting the expression of our uniquely ridiculous selves.

    In this way, Clown is not just a performance expression but a philosophy and way of life. A life of connection, expressive freedom, humour, authenticity, honesty, presence, intuition, risk, commitment and the ability to fail well. It's one thing to perform clown but another to adopt the profound teachings into your life beyond the stage. This is no easy feat, it's a deep developmental process unleashing your self-expression, understanding your limitations on a visceral level and taking courageous risks to express authentically before others.


    WHAT IS PSYCHOMAGIC?


    Psychomagic is a healing art coined by the Elder Chilean filmmaker Alejandro Jodorowsky and described as a shamanic somatic and healing practice that uses ritual theatre, psychology, esoteric magic, dreams and theatre to create transformational experiences for individuals.


    INTENTION:

    Our intention with this exploration in psycho magic is to work with our collective dreams and energies, creating performances and rituals that carry our wishes for the earth, all beings and the future generations.


    WHO IS THIS COURSE FOR?

    * Anyone curious about the practice of clown, psychomagic and ritual. Whether you are a performing artist, public speaker, creator, drama/art therapist, magician, ceremonialist etc. or someone who just wants to come out of their shell and take a big risk to play and be seen, this course is for you.
    + Please note- the venue is on the 1st floor and up a flight of stairs, the theatre is also down a flight of stairs. We are sorry for any inconvenience, please do get in touch if you would like to participate but have limited mobility. We will do our best to accommodate and can keep in touch about future opportunities in more suitable venues.


    IMPORTANT REMINDER:


    This course is not a therapy course, however it can be experienced in a therapeutic and healing way.

    Zuma Puma is not a therapist, her experience and training is in shamanic, ceremonial and energetic healing modalities and clowning. It is not the intention of the work to become therapy for individuals but rather to create a potent space for participants to express their ridiculous selves, feel seen and heard and work via the modalities of clowning, ritual and ceremony to re-awaken life in a positive way. Our intention is to work with energy, connection and expression to reach the potential for deep transformation within a collective container.

    If you are in need of a therapist, we may be able to recommend someone suitable.
