PulsePDX
3602 Northeast Sandy BoulevardALL ARE WELCOME. (No experience necessary.)
An autumn equinox event, next in this quarterly, 90-minute, somatic (body-based), guided, immersive series.
Walk in as your pedestrian self, leave as a fully embodied, playful, curious being. Clown returns us to our center, to our childlike wonder, to the power of vulnerability and the joy of authentic laughter.
As the seasons change from summer to fall, we step into the intentions of reaping the fruits of what we have built and shedding what no longer serves us.
Please wear clothes that you feel comfortable moving in, bring layers and water, and be prepared to move barefoot.
This is an 18+ event. All bodies and ability levels await you. Your clown rebirth awaits you.

Clown Mother (Anne Zander - she/her) is a queer, neurodivergent mother, clown, character creator and a "completely ridiculous... completely vulnerable" international touring artist whose two solo shows - "MOTHER" and "JUICEBOX" - have brought audiences to laughter and tears from coast to coast (BroadwayWorld). She will hold you in her (figurative) mother's embrace before pushing you right out of the nest.
DJ Dave Basement (David Wester - he/him) is a morbidly hilarious sketch writer/performer, professional film editor and certified "Genius of Comedy" (Portland Mercury) who is also gifted at sound and light design. His sonic and visual support will lift you out of the world you are familiar with and into a land without ascribed meaning.
PulsePDX is an ADA Accessible, mirror-free, club-lit, deeply inclusive dance fitness studio that is large enough for 50+ students! Their philosophy is that movement is for all bodies, ought to seem like a reward and not a punishment, should be fun and feel good, brings people together, benefits more than just the body.
