Both yoga teaching and clowning are deeply rooted in the practice of being fully present and adaptive. Each yoga class presents new challenges, requiring thoughtful choices about poses and cues. Similarly, interactions as a hospital clown demand immediate responsiveness to the needs of children and families. Physicality plays an important role in both fields, with each requiring a dynamic use of the body. Engagement in selfless service is fundamental, revealing connections between these seemingly disparate practices that foster personal growth and emotional support.
Yoga and clowning both require commitment and ongoing learning. Each class is a new creation, similar to hospital interactions that are unique and evolving.
The essence of both yoga teaching and clowning is about being fully present in the moment, tailoring approaches based on the immediate needs of others.
Both practices demand physical engagement; being a clown involves as much physicality as performing yoga poses, illustrating the depth of both art forms.
Selfless service is integral to both roles, revealing the deeper connections between clowning in hospitals and facilitating personal growth through yoga.
