Thank you for your gifts of presence and connection, your gentleness and positivity, your clarity and groundedness.
This was an excellent training session. I can’t wait to utilize my new ‘knowledge’ thank you.
If you want to become comfortable with yourself telling stories to others, this is the way. Connie is very good at teaching. I am shocked at how far I came!

REGISTRATION
As a teacher, Connie Regan-Blake creates a fun, welcoming environment while guiding her students to new heights of creativity, exploration and learning. Her teachings can be useful in your professional life in the business world, with family and friends around the supper table, in a virtual setting, or an in-person stage performance. These storytelling classes can benefit writers, teachers, sales professionals, poets, grandparents, storytellers, youth workers, ministers, students, attorneys, presenters, & all those curious.
I appreciate all the heartwarming take-aways. I am leaving with a more open heart and mind. It has transcended not only my role as a teller and listener, but also my role as a friend, neighbor, community member, teacher, and so on.
Even though we live on opposite coasts, doing coaching with Connie R-B has been invaluable! I’ve worked with her in person and over the phone. I am always grateful for her guidance. Connie has presence, wisdom and powerful directorial sensibilities. – Workshop Participants

I had so much fun taking your Landscapes class!! Thank you for offering it in such a way we all felt comfortable and honored!
Your masterful storytelling leads the way for each of us to develop into individual storytellers that continue the oral tradition in the best way possible, by sharing our own stories.
As great as in-person workshops are, I think ZOOM is very effective for that kind of experience.
“Connie’s technique provides grounded, practical tools that let a story, and its teller, really take flight. She’s a master, and she generously shares her wealth of useful wisdom and experience.”
