So, I'm out of town and I run into a small circus. There were carnies, dangerous rides, deep fried food, etc. I ended up meeting a female clown (stop your sick fantasies right there, weirdos), and we ended up chatting about her chosen career path. Apparently there is a well established clown training program in Southern California, and she is an alumnus.

Does San Francisco have anything similar to this? Do we have a clown college? I know that Barnum and Bailey used to something similar in Florida (Steve-O went there), but I think it's closed. Does anyone know a professional clown? I know that Cirque De Soleil is here, and Teatro Zinzanni, surely there are clown educational resources!

Well, of the top of me head there is the circus center on Frederick. They do classes for all levels. Shows too http://www.circuscenter.org/index2.html

And then across the way (also on Frederick) there is Acro Sports http://www.acrosports.org/

Check them out, they both rock!
