The clown’s nose is the small mask that gives us BIG permission.
Whether you’re a super woman, a secretary, a mother, a
daughter, a goddess, a feminist, a CEO, a wife, an artist, a muse,
a cheerleader, straight, or gay, or all (or none) of the above,
come discover your own personal guide and resource for new
found sanity: your inner clown!
Through learning to deepen
presence and by connecting to our playful spirit we can develop
and sustain the heart to be who we truly are – to trust life, each other and ourselves.

“…a wonderful opportunity.
The facilitators create a safe, supportive, authentic, creative,
engaging, present, adventuresome, fun space in which to share, grow and learn…one really
experiences oneself very clearly.
I liked the variety of forces at work..the process for developing the group sense, exploring individually and together. I really learned a lot and it will be a touchstone for me as I remember it and the experience and feeling of being on stage and being viewed….and enjoying it!” -Participant A Nose Of Her Own, 2009
