Interested in releasing your inner storyteller? Transformations: An Introduction to Telling Personal Stories will help you learn how to craft and shape the stories that make up your life.

We shape our lives through the stories that we tell all the time whether they’re about our day at work, going to see a film or a basketball game, what we had for dinner or visiting a friend but those “kitchen-table” stories are anecdotes that we just toss out into the world without even thinking about them as stories. But learning how to craft and shape one of those “moments of being” into a work of art can be a transformative experience.

Adapting that story, your own personal story, based on one meaningful experience that in some way transformed you, a turning point in your life, into a performance piece can not only help you recognize just how important these life changing moments are from a potentially different perspective but, as importantly, helps you create a powerful way to connect with listeners – when that story is shared with others, it can also make the listener visit places, experience events, meet people and discover new and exciting connections based on our shared experience of being. Transformations is a way to make your story come to life.

Transformations teaches participants how to craft a spoken word storytelling performance based upon a life-changing moment from their own personal experiences, and, using traditional storytelling techniques, turning this singular “moment of being” into a short 5-7 minute live or video-recorded performance piece
