SUMMARY:The Sky High Tree
DESCRIPTION:  \nIn this 3-hour workshop\, we will dive deeply into the world of the Hungarian magic tale „Az égig érő fa” (Sky High Tree)\, which appears in multiple forms and variations. The tale of Égig Érő Fa has elements dating back to shamanic culture\, is filled with the supernatural\, along with unique and archetypal characters. \nBesides searching for meanings and connections for ourselves in the rich world of this story\, we will also examine how the language of traditional oral narration paints images with words and how does it evoke inner images in the listeners and make the story compelling. \nIF YOU DID NOT ATTEND EARLIER EVENTS\, YOU WILL BE GIVEN ACCESS TO A CONDENSED RECORDING AND ALL BACKGROUND MATERIALS. THIS WILL NOT BE AN IMPEDIMENT TO YOUR PARTICIPATION! \nThis is the fourth in a series of recurring classes workshops\, held for 3 hours on Sundays to allow for greater depth and exploration. Foundational materials are provided; the series may be entered without having attended prior classes but will be enhanced for those who continue. \nThis special edition of Diving Deeply into Stories is being offered with Maja Bumberák and Maggid Jim Brulé. Maja Bumberák is a renowned storyteller and singer based in Budapest\, Hungary. She is known around the world for her storytelling\, and even more so for researching and reviving the artform of oral storytelling in Hungary. As a scholarship holder of the Hungarian Academy of Arts\, she is training teachers and student teachers in oral storytelling. \nMaggid Jim Brulé is a transformational storyteller\, and the founder of the Transformational Storytelling school\, of which this program is a part. Jim Brulé also works with organizations and communities to bring the power of storytelling to healing the fractures which so often divide us around race\, class\, faith tradition\, and culture. His two-year program has graduated students from around the world\, including several ordinations of Jewish students as a Maggid – a spiritual storyteller in the Jewish tradition. \nThis is truly a unique experience to dive deeply into these mystical depths. \n

SUMMARY:Diving Deeply into Stories - 8 weeks
DESCRIPTION:This class gives storytellers and non-storytellers the tools to uncover and explore the deeper\nmeanings found in traditional narratives. Exploring stories from Hungary\, Nigeria\, South\nAfrica\, Egypt\, Eastern Europe\, and India\, students begin by dissecting stories\, their symbols\nand metaphors. After uncovering the first “obvious” set of meanings\, they then consider\nalternative storylines and impacts. Students will find meanings below the surface that often\naffect the listener – and the storyteller – without their awareness. \nCo-taught with Jim Brulé & Sara Armstrong \nNote: Students who wish will be able to present one of the class’ stories in a Showcase\nevent.

SUMMARY:Mexico and its Stories
DESCRIPTION:The Diving Deeply series invites participants to explore stories with rich metaphor and mystery\, seeking meanings below the surface that often affect the listener – and the storyteller – without their awareness. Participants dissect the stories\, their symbols and metaphors\, and uncover both the first set of meanings that seem to present themselves and then consider alternative tellings and impacts. \nIn this series\, we dive deeply into the world of the indigenous side of Mexican stories\, filled with magical realism and parallel worlds. \nThis special edition of Diving Deeply into Stories is being offered with Valentina Ortiz and Maggid Jim Brulé. Valentina Ortiz is a storyteller\, musician\, writer\, recording artist\, teacher\, and humanitarian. She considers herself a citizen of the world\, as she tells her stories in English\, Spanish or French. Valentina is the magic of Mexican traditions\, with their music\, native languages\, and stories. She is also the flavors of the Caribbean drums; she is the union of the different cultures from the tropics to the mountains. She speaks words of hope\, of song and music\, of strong women\, of responsibility towards Mother Nature and community. \nMaggid Jim Brulé is a transformational storyteller\, and the founder of the Transformational Storytelling school\, of which this program is a part. Brulé also works with organizations and communities to bring the power of storytelling to healing the fractures which so often divide us around race\, class\, faith tradition\, and culture. His two-year program has graduated students from around the world\, including several ordinations of Jewish students as a Maggid – a spiritual storyteller in the Jewish tradition. \nA limited number of “Pay as you wish” tickets are available. \nThis is truly a unique experience to dive deeply into these mystical depths.
