"Once there was..." storyshop

You are invited to attend a one day storyshop – a practical introduction to the art of storytelling

ONCE THERE WAS…
AN INTRODUCTION TO THE ART OF STORYTELLING
Find the Storyteller inside

This workshop will give you a taste of how to ritualise and energize your life though engaging with stories – those of your own and of others. Climb inside stories and tell them from the inside. Listen to them. Shape them. Taste them on your tongue. Reconnect to creativity, memory and imagination.

WHO WILL BENEFIT FROM ATTENDING:
Writers, storytellers, readers, travelers, lovers of words, images, silences…therapists, artists, spiritual seekers, coaches, teachers, magicians, tricksters, ecologists...anyone who wants to raise their story IQ. Those who are too busy to attend the full storyshop series, but don’t want to miss out completely.

“ONCE THERE WAS” WILL GIVE YOU:
an understanding of how to structure / create a story
an opportunity to climb inside a story and tell it
an understanding of why stories are important – looking at our lives as stories
an understanding of story archetypes
