Our class will teach how to begin a story, how to end a story, the messy middle of the story, and in our final class we will put everything together.
This storytelling class will help with all types of storytelling. Whether you're working on a play, a novel, a movie script, or a story to tell in front of a live audience, you will find something to help you bring your project to life.
We've worked with hundreds of storytellers and helped them share their true stories on the Testify stage.
Everyone tells stories. You tell them at work, with your friends, on a date, on a job interview, to your kids, to your significant other.
Everyone tells stories, but not everyone tells a good story.
A good story isn't about running into a burning building and saving a box of kittens, although that would be a good story. A good story is also about the quiet times in our lives. The joy in holding someone's hand, the wonder of a dog's smile, the kindness of being let into traffic on the freeway.
These moments make good stories because they mean something to the storyteller. What brings your joy or sadness is a great story. What makes you stop, and think is a great story. Anything that brings a smile to your face, or a tear to your eye, makes a great story.
The Storytellers Studio will help make you a better storyteller.
