For this series of workshops we asked a number of leading & inspiring international teachers to develop a very special concept for us. During the class they will take you to the how and why they do what they do, to their 'Core Philosophy'. This makes this series already unique in its kind. In this first series we have both Michael Christensen and Patch Adams! Thanks to both of them, our profession has seen the light! Discover the teachers here:

COACHING
For clown organizations &

Our healthcare clown coaching are given by Bart Walter
After 20 years of experience for a lot of different publics as a healthcare clown, I still learn every day. I love working with clown groups to share and deepen this passion. Clowning enriches my teachings and vice-versa. It's a learning without end. So I could write here that I know how to clown, but in reality I know less and less... Not knowing, but asking yourself why, how, what, etc... are te most important values I teach as a clown. Learning to listen... daring not to know. And to pour a nice sauce of clown, humor and skills on top of that.
Having had the pleasure to work with a lot of different groups, I encountered beautiful questions and thematics. So tell me your questions or needs and I'll listen, to propose an adapted workshop.
We can also work around some fixed thematics. (e.g. Improvisation-tools, Duo or solo work, Resilience of the clown & actor, Self-care, Play through Touch, Playful connections with people with a disability or dementia; Using all Senses to connect, The power of music and rhythm, Who am I? deepening your clown-character, Coachings on the workplace, etc...)
