Workshop by Alice Lizzola: The Clown’s Path to Authentic Expression

Join Italian pedagogue and dancer Alice Lizzola for an immersive journey that bridges dance, circus arts, and the ancient art of clownery to cultivate profound self-awareness and authentic expression. This workshop will draw participants of all ages into a space where movement is not just a gesture, but a pathway to self-discovery.

Through three powerful stages, Alice guides participants to explore their own bodies deeply:

Body Awakening – Begin with a dynamic warm-up designed to awaken every part of the body, connecting breath with movement to set an internal rhythm.

Technical Exploration – Move into focused exercises in clownery and juggling, emphasizing techniques that cultivate self-acceptance, embrace vulnerability, and bring balance to life’s dualities.

Free Expression – Conclude with a raw, unstructured period for self-expression, where participants can integrate their newfound skills and freely explore the beauty of imperfection.

Clownery, as Alice teaches, is more than a performance art—it’s a courageous, even rebellious, act of embracing one’s true self. The clown sees life through a lens of honesty and humor, finding beauty in imperfection. In a world driven by external validation, this workshop invites participants to turn inward, to embody their truest selves, and to celebrate their differences with pride and joy.

If you’re ready to challenge conventions and connect deeply with your body and spirit, this workshop offers a rare opportunity to transform from within.
