The Story Studio

I wish the class had more of a structure, an agenda. The on the spot practicing was great, but a bit more lecture or notes on storytelling would be great. We didn't spend that much time discussing what makes a great story besides the very obvious, such as a beginning, middle, and end.

Thanks to our instructors, we learned a lot about ourselves and how to tell our story. The workshop is a great opportunity to get up there and tell stories, well within your comfort zone, but within an environment that encourages you to push yourself just a little bit. Without such terrific instructors, the class wouldn't have been as remarkable as it was.

We loved our instructors. They made the whole class. The class time was just right and the venue was perfectly adequate. Thanks jiji and gail, you guys are wizards.

Loved it! The personal attention was remarkable.

Gail was absolutely phenomenal! I came to the class feeling so unprepared and uncomfortable and shy. Gail provided the exact feedback I needed. The things she said really improved my story and my understanding of the format. That advice made me a whole lot better at telling a story and even freestyling one at the end! The class was a perfect size of 8. Any bigger and time would be a big issue. I also got this class as a present for my husband and mom and they loved it! They both improved so much and were so excited and confident! I definitely recommend this class!

Great class and community! Cindy is an amazing facilitator and brought out the best in all of us.

Pros: You can tell that the instructor is a very experienced storyteller and teacher. He provided excellent feedback and effectively delivered the class considering the limited amount of time. Definitely a huge opportunity to learn from him. Cons: While this is overall a great storytelling class, it's necessarily applicable in business presentation or product pitch scenarios. Additionally, it was not the most comfortable facility.

It was a great class. I highly recommend it!

Cyndi was great! As a working tour guide this class really helped me tighten up a very essential part of my game! Of recommend this class to anyone looking to get a better understanding of how to build stories.

The Story Studio has very good instructor. Julia was phenomenal. Do it!
