Josie has been a storyteller in education for two decades.  She is a life-long-learning folk harpist, with skills in improvising for stories and meditation.  She trained as a Steiner school class teacher, and taught part-time in a Steiner school (Wynstones) for 6 years.  She also wrote a book of her experiences and the theory of child development using stories: Storytelling for Life (Floris 2012).  She now teaches storytelling to adults, especially parents.  Children crave stories to help them cope with the world, their feelings and their developing self. This year she will be presenting Ceridwen’s Cauldron, an ancient Welsh story full of mysterious transformations, accompanied with harp improvisations. For full details see: www.storymagic.co.uk
