* Improve your communication and listening skills
*Deepen your understanding of the power of story
*and have fun!

Here is a glowing testimonial from a student on the last course:
"I have just finished Suzanne Arnold 's beginner's storytelling course "Flesh and Bones". It was such an insightful 2 part process with a wonderful group of people.

Suzanne lead the way for us to explore different aspects of what it means to be a storyteller, how to strip back to the bones, then how to embody the story and add the "Flesh", the details that paint the picture. As well as exploring things like gestures, facial expressions, breath work, voice, body posture.

With the opportunity to tell our chosen stories to a small group of people which was terrifying but also a fantastic way to break the ice of telling my first story.

Suzanne held the space so beautifully and her energy and passion inspired us to get out of our comfort zones and fully engage with the stories and the group. It was a delicious and nourishing experience! Thank you Suzanne 😍❤️"
