Learn the Craft of Storytelling from Award-winning Story Coach and Professional Storyteller Dixie De La Tour.

You've asked for it, and it's finally here: Join Dixie for her new In-Person workshop: 'How to Be Fascinating: Dixie's Secret System for Brilliant Storytelling', a One Day hands-on storytelling intensive that will allow you to give words to your own most personal moments in a positive and supportive setting.

You'll engage in group & solo exercises in an easygoing, community-based environment as you find & refine your own stories under Dixie's expert direction.

Anyone who craves an opportunity to tell their own personal stories can do this workshop; whether you're a brand new storyteller who needs a roadmap on how to share your true tales at gatherings, to win a open mic or StorySlam, an experienced storyteller looking to hone their craft (and learn Dixie's incredibly easy story system), an erotica writer who wants to bring their beautiful words to life without a piece of paper in front of you, someone who dreams of getting onstage, or (like most of us) a regular Joe/Jill/Cory with a desire to fully express themselves, then this course is for you.

Testimonials for Dixie De La Tour’s workshop:

"Dixie De La Tour's coaching is brilliant, and her unique system will absolutely boost your storytelling skills. Whether you are incorporating narrative into your corporate presentations, telling sexy tales at Bawdy Storytelling, or just want to gain confidence in public speaking, you'll definitely benefit from this workshop!"

- Artist & Globetrotting Educator Midori

"***This is a Masterclass for all levels and anyone (not just Bawdy types), interested in storytelling***
Legit felt intimated yesterday to meet Dixie, but her embodiment and warmth quickly melted nerves. 

- Solo Theater Director & Performer Kenny Yun

"Dixie De La Tour’s storytelling class helped me with finding my voice, and to tell compelling stories that weren’t rambling… I recently interviewed at the third largest company in the world and throughout the interview process, I told 20 stories about my experience- 15 in the last round! And you can bet Dixie was in the first people I called to thank when I learned I would be offered the role! I could not have been prepared for this without Dixie’s storytelling method. Dixie's storytelling system is amazing and it fits into so many situations. I can’t promise you’ll get a new job, but I will say you’ll definitely be more fascinating."
Update: Barbie just landed their THIRD dream job - with a hefty pay increase and paid relocation - by using Dixie's system!

- 3 -Time Workshop attendee Barbie Jean

“This was a spectacular experience and I am so glad that I got to take this workshop. You are a terrific teacher: it is so amazing to me that you have been able to distill your process, and then teach it so well - I am in awe of your organization and skill.”

- Workshop Attendee AJ

"OMG this was so much fun, Dixie! I didn’t know what to expect, but this exceeded my most optimistic hopes. You haven’t seen the last of me. I'm coming back for your advanced workshop!"

- 3-Time Workshop Attendee Brendan

"I learned more about the nature of story here than in 4 years of studying creative writing, including and especially how we can use our stories to connect to each other"

- Aspiring Author and Workshop Attendee Carrie

"I know how to tell a story; I’m a traditionally published author, for God’s sake. The people even seem to like my work, too (my arrogance is fueled by my Amazon rating).

But it turns out I didn’t know how to tell a fucking fantastic story on stage—one that would grab the whole room in the first five seconds. Instead of telling me I was “brilliant,” Dixie laid down 16 minutes of professional and kind no-nonsense coaching that changed my life. It was the absolute best advice I’ve ever received around story. Consequently, the shape of my tale post-coaching went from “eh” to awesome.

Thanks to Dixie, I had a great experience at Bawdy, and when I hand-craft my next story, I now have my own personal checklist to uncover my blind spots and rework the piece so my story goes from an “aww, that was nice” to an “OMFG!!!” tale."
