When it was time to get back to public speaking, Terri found her
new voice through personal storytelling. Terri now integrates
story into all aspects of her work and teaches evening classes
and day long workshops.
UPCOMING WORKSHOPS
T=Telling your stories
L=Laughing your “head off the wall”**
C=Connecting with your spiritual source of peace plenty and protection
These days, the "real" world just keeps getting scarier, so it seems a good time for amazing women to come together and support each other using humor, story and spiritual connection to counteract fear. We will explore ways to maintain balance in topsy-turvy times. Please join us for a wonderful day of camaraderie, storytelling, laughter, writing, guided meditation and most of all, FUN!

The Power of Personal Storytelling
with David Roche & Jo Anne Smith
April 24 - 9:30 am to 2 pm
Mill Valley, CA
$100
* Express your natural creativity
in a safe, supportive environment
*
Experience the healing power of telling your story and
really being heard
* Explore a wide range of
stories or craft a specific story for performance, presentation
or just for fun
We bring our experience as performers and storytelling coaches to this playful, powerful workshop as we guide you to tap into your wealth of stories and show you how to share them with ease. The flexible design allows us to tailor the experience to your intentions, and you will learn by doing and through modeling, coaching, storytelling exercises and discussion.
Each group includes participants with a range of experience - from beginners with stage fright to professional performers and storytellers, and we prefer it that way.
And don't worry about bringing a polished story. Some people come with ideas about what they might tell, and others just show up with an open heart and see what arises in the moment. Some tell and re-tell the same story, and others find a fresh story each turn.
