STC Talks... Clowning Around with Paul Miller

Come join in a bit of April Fool's Fun as we chat with Pauly the Clown about spreading laughter and empowering children through 'circus wellness'.

(Watch this episode on Youtube here: https://youtu.be/vjka-cFIQpI)


Paul Hallinan Miller is a professional clown with more than a red nose and big shoes - he's also got big ideas. Since touring with the Ringling Bros (in lieu of attending his senior year of college), Paul has worked with children in a variety of health-related settings, developing his concept of circus wellness.  In 2009, he founded Circus Mojo, a circus arts program for children and adults.

Paul is now working towards creating 'The Institute of Social Circus & Vocational Training Center L3C'. This social venture will be the first training center in the world dedicated to teaching the circus techniques, team building skills and social work principles for the purposes of training, educating and meeting the social service needs of hospitalized individuals, youth in detention or in other institutionalized settings.
