Dear Joyful followers,

I have exciting news for you! Ira Seidenstein is teaching an online clown course: 4 sessions. Once per week. Next start date: March 9th. Tuesday mornings 9:00 London Time

Dear joyful followers,

You might have noticed that our Facebook and Instagram pages are a bit more active since few weeks. I won’t keep it secret any longer… and I will open the curtains to introduce !

Dear joyful followers,

We are thrilled to make the second edition of Clown at 1.5m distance happen! A 2day in-person CovidSafe Melbourne based workshop.

Happy New Year 2021!

We will remember 2020, especially because that’s the year The Joyful School was born :-)

What can I wish you for 2021? Creativity, Joy, Authenticity, and Inner peace.

We are going straight into training this Saturday, with a 9-week online course “Clowning, Acting, Improvising”.

Hey joyful followers,

The Joyful School is going to take a break from Monday 7 December 2020 to Monday 4 January 2021.

Before closing up shop, I’d like to celebrate with all of you what we achieved since last January. The Joyful School has organised more than 30 online and in person workshops, we built an international community of 15 joyful students from the ground up, we brought joy at home everyday during lockdown, and we are still doing it!

That’s why I’m very excited to invite you to 8 p.m. for Melbourne, 10 a.m. for Paris, or check your timezone .

Hey! What’s up in November?

Let’s get real! It’s time to unleash our creative energies!

Freedom!

Melbourne lifts one of the world’s longest lockdowns after 111 days, it’s time for us to spread joy in person!

Since August, The Joyful School and their Joyful students have been showing up online every Saturday. Even apart, we managed to build a community that supports each other and witness each other progress.

This Saturday (31st October), at 10 a.m., It will be an opportunity for me to present what The Joyful School teaches and how.

Hey followers,

Some of my friends and family are going back into lockdown… It sucks.

The online Joyful School was born during the lockdown. It is tailored for anyone who wants to keep improvising and moving their body at home.

Hey Joyful followers,

I’ve been releasing a few entertaining videos in French to learn some warm-up movements:

Hey Joyful followers,

What is the difference between a rule and a principle?

Well first, what is a rule?

I would say, it’s an instruction that you can follow and you can break.

Hey Joyful followers,

Today was the sixth edition of The Joyful Saturdays. The theme of the day was:”How to keep being physical while we talk (by talking I mean improvising with words) and what is the outcome?”

Hi joyful followers,

For those who came along to the Joyful Saturdays, you may have noticed that I use to start with a musical and physical warm-up. I would eventually play a song or two and you would follow (or not) my moves through the screen.

You may also have noticed my “searching” face, when I try to pick the right song to begin with. Well good news, I took the time to curate my long-long-long list of “liked” songs in spotify. I created a the playlist

Hey joyful followers,

I have been thinking about the concept of shape and the concept of rhythm.

Hi beautiful people around the world,

After being lucky enough to organise an in person workshop in Melbourne, we are back to lockdown #2…

I keep coaching on a daily basis. Some of you have now accomplished a Joyful Term. Congratulations! I’m grateful for this daily meetings. No matter what happens out there, we keep training!

Last week, I practiced The Feldenkrais Method (somatic movements education), with the youtube channel . I highly recommand this for a better posture.
