Riding In Cars With Clowns

Class with Tom Tom today. We worked in groups of about 8 all up on stage at the same time. What started as a warm up became nearly the whole class! We danced to funky disco music and showed off our great moves. And spoke about our Clown problems. Whatever. It was fairly random - just following the fun.


I had a good time doing the 'drive-your-car' dance which I just made up on the spot. It involved getting out the keys, opening the door, turning on the ignition, putting down the pedal, and steering...all whilst pulsating to the beat. I played it a bit like I think I'm super cool - a bit cocky - and it worked. People were laughing a lot. And Tom Tom got me to try a motorcycle and aeroplane too which was fun. I also found something speaking in an asian accent again, although it wasn't always a winner. Tom Tom warned me not to be too clever, which I have a tendency to do.

At the end of class we did a quick exercise in which there was a 'clown doctor' whose job is to "come in, save the show and leave again."
