CLASS:PUBLIC
X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p><strong>Everyone has a story to tell.</stro
 ng></p><p>The challenge is knowing how to tell it.</p><p>In this dynamic\,
  multi-session workshop for adults\, you’ll learn how to shape personal 
 experiences into compelling stories—and share them in a way that truly c
 onnects with an audience.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>What is storytelling?</
 strong></p><p>Storytelling is the age-old art of sharing stories live—wi
 thout reading from a page. It’s spontaneous\, expressive\, and often pla
 yful. A story might be carefully crafted or loosely improvised\, grounded 
 in truth or enhanced with a touch of theatrical flair.</p><p>Across cultur
 es\, storytelling has always been a way to entertain\, teach\, preserve hi
 story\, and pass on meaning. If you’re curious about the style explored 
 in this workshop\, you might recognise it in performances by Mike Birbigli
 a or platforms like&nbsp\;<em>The Moth</em>.</p><img src=\"/assets/d4899f9
