THE STORYTELLER OF 1001 TALES

Marijke is a storyteller and public speaker. She tells her stories in schools, libraries, museums, conferences and events. She believes that stories connect people all over the world, no matter your age or background. In her repertoire you can find wisdom tales, legends, myths, heroine stories and many more to wonder and to reflect upon. There is always a story that wants to be told for anykind of situation.
Beside these performances she is promoting her latest project Wise Women Stories. Stories about fearless girls and women who dare to walk the wildwoods. These tales of women of power who stand their ground inspire to slow down and to reconnect with nature, your own nature. Ready to join me on this trip through the wildwoods?

What's your story? |
'Sometimes you're just so proud of someone else's talent! 'Wise Women Stories' is a storytelling performance in which Marijke shares her passion and sensitivity for fairy-tales... through telling stories, with her beautiful voice, and inviting us (the audience) to share our own experiences with fairy tales and the impact they had on us. What a wonderful evening, what a tremendous power that was relased! Thank you Marijke, for inviting me to this try-out!'

We – Marijke Goossens and Inge Haegeman – believe that stories have an inspiring, enlightening
and beneficial effect on who we are and what we do … if only we manage to grasp them! During this intensive we focus on one particular story or fairy tale (Grimm, Andersen, C.P. Estés...) We unveil its wisdom and imagery through playful, creative group exercises. Together we explore its connections with our lives today. We inspire each other and colour outside the lines. We're so much wiser and wilder than we think we are! In this group of fantastic women, you can just be yourself. |

'Marijke, the 'Wise Women Stories' evening from last Thursday still continues to resonate. It was as if I found a missing piece of the puzzle, a key that connected me to my playful inner child. |
