About the teacher

Jos Minnaar studied Theatre Education and Cultural and Social Education and works as a theater maker, teacher, performer, and dancer. His work has been showcased at festivals such as Delft Fringe, Vuurol, Op Blote Voeten Festival, Lente Geluid, Zomer Geluid, Urban Owl, and Pigeon Fest, as well as in various venues across the central and southern Netherlands.

With over ten years of teaching experience, Jos knows better than anyone how important playfulness and courage are in theater. In his classes, he encourages students to let go of expectations, follow their impulses, and work from the body. “A good class,” he says, “is one where the room is unrecognizable from how it was at the start.”
