TEACHING and a little directing…

I have done enough to know a bit and approach teaching as a chance to share my experience. I try to hold the attitude of a fellow learner and aspire to the words of the great Keith Johnston “a teacher should always reveal themselves to their students, especially if they don’t know something” 

I absolutely love being a facilitator, I find it energising, inspiring, insightful, terrifying and humbling all at once. I have had wonderful moments with students of all abilities, backgrounds and ages. In my eye’s every person brings something unique to the class and the job is to help them to get of their own way to release it. I have been to institutions where teachers have been disparaging about their students but with connection, play and focused leadership together we’ve had brilliant moments (and some not so brilliant, but thats life right)

I have taught in MANY situations; masked theatre at the Woodfordia Festival to attendees for a giant masked NYE happening, circus to kids in a dry creek bed on an aboriginal community in Central Australia , been resident artist for two years at an independent primary school, run clown classes for adults in a car park in Ireland, staff teacher at a circus school, assistant teacher for a master dance trainer, produced and facilitated the Perth Clown Jam over a period of 10 years, ran numerous, numerous community arts workshops and performance development projects across the country AND I would be honoured to be part of your class, workshop, jam, one on one, whatever! 

SO HIT ME UP & LETS MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN!!
