Cost: $170.00

Taught by Paoli Lacy, Godmother of Clown Therapy, this workshop will be an experiential, hands-on 2 1/2 day intensive. It will include practical kinesthetic learning of clown therapy techniques along with discussion of the theory and rationales for their use. A holistic approach to meeting psychological and physical challenges, Clown Therapy has been successful with health issues where mind, body, and a sense of humor need to converge. Clown Therapy is noted for serving special needs children at the crossroads of physical therapy, occupational therapy, psychotherapy, and creative arts, with Lucille Ball directing traffic.
All participants will receive a copy of the Clown Therapy Handbook for future reference.
From Paoli:
For the only time this year, Paoli Lacy is offering the Clown Therapy Intensive
Workshop on the Memorial Day 3 day weekend. As there have been
inquiries from out of town, the schedule will allow traveling Saturday
morning and Monday afternoon. There are discounts for Clown
Conservatory students and alumni, Dell 'Arte students and alumni, and
members of AYCO.
The workshop will be useful to anyone working therapeutically or to
anyone teaching with special needs populations, especially children.
The workshop will not be offered with less than 5 registered in
advance, and will be limited to 10 people. Last year the workshop
sold out, so sign up in advance.
Clown Therapy is part of one of the oldest traditions on the planet,
that of clowns and healing. A holistic approach to meeting
psychological and physical challenges, clown therapy has been
successful with health issues where mind, body and a sense of humor
need to converge. Clown Therapy is noted for serving people with
special needs at the crossroads of creative arts, psychotherapy,
occupational, physical, and speech therapies- with Lucille Ball
directing traffic.
