I feel transformed! 💙
It has only been three months since I joined The Clown Village (former Clown4Life), and oh how lucky I feel! Not only do I get to learn from some the world’s best clowns every single month, I also am completely immersed in the rare community of charming rebels and courageous weirdos. I feel seen, heard and supported on my path towards discovering my clown, my passion and my true self. I feel so incredibly uplifted and inspired and always look forward to our meetings which happen 2 or even 3 times every single week! If you have been considering signing up, but still have doubts, I can say with full confidence that you will not regret it! Looking forward to meeting you in the clown village! Xoxo

World class teaching and materials -- a great experience
As a former Cirque du Soleil clown and the director of The Clown Conservatory, I didn't know how much new I would learn about clowning. I was very pleasantly surprised. The materials go so deep and wide, and the course is so well constructed, that I learned volumes about clown traditions and techniques that I had never encountered or thought I knew. Barnaby's relaxed and personable teaching style is the perfect compliment to his sharp intellect and avid curiosity. I highly recommend this course to anyone interested in clowning, from beginners to old pros.

Just what I needed to develop my clown
Clown Spirit is just what I have been looking for to help me develop along my clown journey. The Clown Connection is structured so well. It is presented in an accessible way with a video to watch before the lesson, then a wonderful cocktail of clown theory, exercises, connection and play. The community is so supportive and Barnaby makes the experience so accessible and inclusive and fun. I am sad that this course is ending this week but it has given me so much to explore and the video resources and articles are there for me to peruse long after the course finishes.

An Awesome Experience to Grow Creatively
The Clown Connection course has exceeded my expectations. Barnaby offers excellent resources, creates an atmosphere where it's safe to risk, is prompt, responsive, and organized. His experience as a performer, academic and teacher shine through. The course taught me the basics of clowning and then some. It's a superb course. I hope you'll find it as inspiring as I have.

Joyful inspirations
Clown spirit has been a joy these past weeks to be a part of! Barnaby is extremely knowledgeable, and holds space extremely well, and I feel very cared for in this place. On top of that, the constant inspiration keeps me constantly searching and researching, which is invaluable. I'm definitely considering joining the Clown4life to get more out of this =)

Barnaby's "Clown hacks" are full of heart and soul. He shows examples of great clowning over the decades to illustrate five maxims (in five days) that guide not only clowning but living a joyful life in general--whether one chooses to clown publicly or not. Highly recommend his approach for experienced and inexperienced clowns alike.

Tremendeously helpful
During the process of creating my first own clown scene,I have benefited a lot from the weekly CLOWN 4 LIFE group coaching sessions. The encouraging and constructive feedback from Barnaby and from the other participants gave me many insights and also gave me the feeling that I was not alone with my struggle. And all that for a very fair price. I can recommend the CLOWN 4 LIFE program to everybody who wants to develop their clowning skills or who want to apply clown concepts to any part of their lifes.

Remarkable resource
Cown Spirit is a remarkable resource for meeting and conversing with master clowns from around the globe. The clownversations are a weekly (free) highlight, and the access to master classes on a monthly basis is beyond my wildest dreams come true. Today's class with Jeff Raz was eye opening and heart opening on so many levels. Masterful teaching of the inner workings of clowning.Thank you Barnaby for building the extraordinary Clown Spirit!

Clown Spirit is ACE!
This week's ClownX masterclass was truly amazing! I learnt so much in such a short time. Last night's Clown-versation was a treat as well. Barnaby is a fantastic educator and artist. He does all the right things, is very professional and is very helpful in developing my clown. Thank you!

Clown spirit - a world of inspiration and support
Clown spirit has been an incredible source of support and inspiration for my first steps as a clown. A fantastic community across the globe with play, laughter, inspiration and creative processes. Barnaby give you inspiration and support so that it makes you want more. There are many options for both intensive and extensive processes. I myself started with a weekend intensive, then 8 weeks and now I have bought my first annual subscription.All the practical aspects of payment, links, communication, etc. work flawlessly and it is always easy to get in touch if there are questions.

This platform has been INVALUABLE!
As a new clown, this platform has been invaluable. No where else could I get access to so many different teachers, resources, courses, and community! The weekly coaching sessions have really been helping me take steps forward. Barnaby creates such a welcoming and safe space that is really is a community. I’m only partway through the Clown Connection course, but the research Barnaby has done is amazing (and he gives you copies his resources to read for yourself)! This platform opened a door to clowning for me that otherwise would have remained shut due to financial limitations.

Great experience and wonderful
Great experience and wonderful, knowledgeable teaching. Fun exercises and connecting with others from around the world makes these sessions both an intimate and rewarding experience. This course is helpful for those new to clowning and for those interested in continuing their work. An exceptionally beneficial online class.

Big Ups for Clown Connection
"I can honestly say participating in The Clown Connection changed me! Thanks for inviting me along with my course-mates to play and exploreindividually and collectively in an environment of gentle assurance and safety, encouraging curiosity, risk taking and stepping outside comfort. I loved the multiple points of entry into the course materialfrom the video tutorials to the theoretical reading to the practical application and physicalization of clowning. The experience was rich. Thank you, Barnaby! As an educator/facilitator, you are top-notch."

Hooray for Clown Connection!
Thoughtful, well researched clown theory and history. Exercises, improvisations, and structured assignments to get clown energy pumping through your veins. Barnaby has a keen eye for the bit and how to make it sharper, more artful, more ludicrous. He has an encouraging way with students that inspires risk-taking. I had a blast!Jon LuongoHealthy Humor, Inc.
