WORKSHOPPEN ER AFLYSTThis 2-day workshop is for anyone who works with words and people - teachers, performers, presenters, facilitators, priests, activists, or community leaders - this workshop offers a deeply practical and inspiring resource: the timeless craft of oral storytelling.
At its heart is the enduring art of traditional story - rooted in folk wisdom, rich with metaphor, and alive with possibility. Long before microphones and media, stories shaped culture, passed on knowledge, and connected people across generations. Today, they offer a powerful way to reconnect - with ourselves, with each other, and with the emergent aliveness between us.
Over the weekend, you will be introduced to seven key principles of storytelling to support your practice:
• How to find the stories you love to tell.
Discover tales that resonate with your own voice, values, and experience.
• How to prepare a story so it carries depth and meaning.
Learn to work with imagery, rhythm, and emotional truth so your telling feels alive
and layered.
• How to hold space between words.
Explore the power of silence, timing, and presence in creating emotional resonance.
• How to flow with your listeners.
Tune in, adapt in the moment, and shape the story through shared attention.
• How to enter the world of the story and let it speak through you.
Work with imagination, embodiment, and spontaneity to bring stories alive.
• How to honour the roots of a story while making it your own.
Stay true to the heart of a tale while adapting it respectfully for your context.
• How to adapt stories to different settings and audiences.
Use storytelling to support group facilitation, rituals, teaching, and celebration -from intimate conversations to public gatherings.
Together, we will explore how storytelling can enrich all kinds of shared moments. Whether you are holding a classroom, leading a ritual, teaching children, facilitating a retreat, or simply speaking to friends around a fire - stories help mark transitions, deepen relationships, and build shared meaning. You will discover how folk tales can be woven into contemporary life in ways that feel joyful, nourishing, and real.
You will be guided by an experienced traditional storyteller and group facilitator. Over two days, you will:
• hear many stories you can take away and tell immediately.
• learn how to tell folktales so they resonate today.
This workshop is for anyone who works with people - teachers, performers, facilitators, creatives, community leaders, retreat hosts, and the story-curious.
