Welcome to a personal exploration of story that will become a memorable awakening of joy and interest in comparative literature, world mythology, folklore, fairy tales, cultural anthropology and all things, people and places full of mystery and wonder found around the globe. Courses designed and offered have been specifically crafted as artistic, soul-enriching experiences that will invite and inspire excitement about learning and compassion toward oneself and others. Classes are created as gifts with chosen content meant to transform and mature along with you and yours, meeting needs of the heart and soul during life changes and passages. My hope and intent is that the information we share together will offer lasting comfort, value, interest and guidance. Each program description provides a link to detailed information and registration. Program participants range from preschool to college level depending upon course content. For additional information about my teaching philosophy, resume and educational services, please visit Education and Consulting Services. Please contact me should you have any questions. I look forward to meeting you and yours and sharing the balming, thrilling world of story together. Classes for the 2007-2008 academic period have been filled. New classes will be posted on or before August 1st for the 2008-2009 season. If you would like to be notified when classes are posted, please contact me. Thank you and wishing you and yours a lovely summer!
