“The course was excellent.
It was superbly facilitated to create an environment where it was
safe to experiment and participants could learn from each other.
Thanks very much!”
— Steve Killick – storyteller and clinical psychologist
We will be working in a deep yet playful way in order to bring us home to story once more. The workshop is aimed at everyone. Those who love story, those who want to use it professionally with their clients, and those who want to facilitate story sessions with their families and children.
In the online courses that Michael has been leading since the arrival of Covid, his participants have told him that, apart from the disease itself and its direct impact, what they miss most is landscape, nature and other people in community. Through storytelling and story-making we can create those things once more and practice weaving story and magic for when we can be together in the same place again. Now is a good time to start thinking about and planning how we take up where we left off and incorporate what we have learned over the last year to continue with community, creativity and joy.
“The most beneficial use of time and money I can remember spending.
I made so much progress in such a short time.”
— Jonathan Lambert, storyteller and musician.
Who is this workshop designed for: The general public. Everyone. Including therapists, counsellors and healers of all kinds.

Michael Harvey has been a professional storyteller for over twenty-five years. He has worked internationally, teaching and performing on every continent (except Antarctica!). Michael helps people reconnect with with the depth and creativity of myth and other traditional narratives in order to create new stories and tell them convincingly and authentically. We’ll do this by getting into the specifics of how traditional narrative form and symbols actually work. He is a top international, award-winning storyteller and facilitator. He has taught and directed leading and emerging contemporary storytellers and has worked extensively in the education sector facilitating the creativity of both students and staff. Since lockdown he has spearheaded storytelling coaching and training online with students from Bridgend to Brazil. To his surprise, he has found that the cohort experience online is even stronger than in conventional courses and that the continuation is more sustained once the teaching sessions are over.
