Embrace Your Inner Storyteller Weekend Course
Description
Embrace Your Inner Storyteller!
Are you passionate about stories and want to master the art of telling them? Join our Oral Storytelling Course with experienced educator, U.K.-trained storyteller, President of the Australian Fairy Tale Society and host of The Heart of Storytelling podcast, Alyssa Curtayne.
Transform your tales into mesmerising performances! Storytelling is not reading or memorisation, but a deep connection within the body to the story, the audience, and the self. Using folk and fairy tales we will dive deep into story craft and build our repertoire of skills and stories so you can tell your tales with confidence and style.
