The Art of Clowning is not just a performance expression; it's a philosophy and way of life filled with connection, expressive freedom, humour, authenticity, and the courage to be hilariously you. The way of the Clown challenges us to be authentically ourselves, to embrace vulnerability, and to find the humour and poetry in the polarities of life. It's about connecting with others on a deep, human level and daring to step outside our comfort zones to experience a way of playful wholehearted living and having fun with delving into the worlds of performance expression. To support and enhance our journey we will be playing with non-secular rituals, nature connection, communing with the world beyond and working with Zuma's Clown Arcana Tarot Deck Archetypes to inform our Clown lens of Perception.

One to One Coaching Sessions
Our coaching session may include; Talking council, movement and somatic release, voice/ sound, Neuro Linguistic Programming, Inner child work, Shadow work and in some cases may also involve a take home practice for you to continue to work with.
My work is informed by my experience and knowledge from years of working and training as a well being coach and facilitator of clown, ritual, movement and personal development practices. I am a Neuro Linguistic Master practitioner and occasionally draw on this knowledge within my work as a life and creativity coach to help carry lives in a healthy way and re-wire the mind for positive. My work has a forward focus, it is my intention to help you to move through whatever has been holding you back and to create healthy strategies for a future that is in line with your unique values, gifts and desires.
I draw on my experiences with shamanic, movement and clown training and apprenticeships to help individuals gain insight and clarity in navigating life in a whole hearted way. I will help you to deepen your personal enquiry as well as offering tools that can support your emotional, energetic and physical well being.
The Session: Each session lasts approximately an hour. The first session will be focused around hearing where you are at and what your needs and desires may be in your current situation. In this introduction I will ask questions to deepen my understanding of your needs and wants and help you find a practice or strategy to work with after our session to help you take the steps towards a healthy change in your life.
In some cases one session is sufficient to get to the crux and make positive change. Ideally like most coaching and therapeutic works, I would recommend at least 3 sessions to help move towards more of what you want.
Fee: My fee is £50- £75/ hour. Payments can be made by Bank Transfer or Paypal. The session will be scheduled once the payment is received. Payments for the session must be paid in full before the session takes place.
Scholarships: Reduced cost scholarships are available for individuals whom are not supported by the current paradigm. Please enquire if you are in need of a supported scholarship.
Booking Enquiries: Please Email nellyzscott@gmail.com
