Office Clown.

Build a more innovative and collaborative workforce by fostering freedom and discovery through the power of clown.
Clown is a modern art form rooted in physical comedy that uses vulnerability, improvisation, and play to create deeply human and unpredictable performances.
What is Clown?
Clown opens us up, teaches us to listen, shows us the strength of vulnerability, and encourages us to take risks, push boundaries, and invent. Through it we enter a state of freedom and discovery, which unlocks our unique world of unconventional ideas and allows us to create at a higher level.

I am a writer and performer who moved to the U.S. as a child to fulfill every immigrant parent's dream of having their son become a clown.
After working in the writers' room at The Late Late Show with James Corden, I attended the world-renowned clown school Ecole Philippe Gaulier in France where I studied the art of clown and play.
Since discovering how clown can revolutionize work, creativity, and everyday life, I have worked with leading organizations helping teams unlock creativity by encouraging failure, risk-taking, and vulnerability.
My favorite part of teaching clown is watching people let go of self-consciousness, embrace silliness, and rediscover the joy of playing like a child.
My name is Tufan Nadjafi.
