Beyond Borders Storytelling

July 10 Storytelling Workshop

Tues, July 10 (6:30 PM - 8:00 PM)
Hostelling International USA Office
1212 Market Street, Third Floor
San Francisco, CA

Storytelling is more than just entertainment, it is an effective technique to connect with people, establish credibility, inspire, motivate and convey complex ideas in a memorable way.

We will show you how to tell engaging stories that draw on your personal life experiences. We will cover storytelling basics and not-so-basics, including constructing a narrative, how to hook an audience, building suspense, techniques for adding color, humor, and pathos, and delivering a powerful ending.

Workshop participants also have the opportunity to tell a 5-10 minute personal, true story before a live audience at our next Story Jam on July 14 around the theme of 'Fish Out of Water'

Presented in Partnership with Hostelling International USA
