An Valenteyn

Nose-to-Nose Facilitator

An was born in Belgium where she lives and works. She trained as a social worker and went on to study mime and movement theatre at the Lassaad International School in Brussels – a school influenced by the teachings of Jacques Lecoq.

She became so inspired by clowning as a playful and authentic way of being and living in the moment that in 2006 she joined the Cliniclown team in Belgium working as a hospital clown. She is also a coach and a trainer for new members of the team.
In 2015 she met Nose to Nose. She is currently training as a Clown facilitator with Nose to Nose. She also performs as a clown and actor in music theatre.
