Roi Gal-Or

Roi Gal-Or – As co-founder of the International School of Storytelling, I have spent over 25 years performing and teaching the art and craft of storytelling in service of the environment, education, healing, and peace building. I taught storytelling at the University of Sussex and Emerson College and perform and teach globally. Helped by the  gifts of stories and the imagination, I seek to inspire meaningful relationships, support social transformation, and nurture vision, creativity and empathy. Through weaving together storytelling, social play, and biographical exploration, I design transformative learning environments, teach, coach and mentor storytellers and perform internationally.
