Stories in Motion is a guided storytelling experience that invites you to read, listen, reflect, and create.
Each story is shaped by creative invitations, reflective questions, soundscapes, and optional outdoor practices, offering multiple ways to engage.
Each quarter, you receive a bound storybook exploring African myths, folktales, and legendary beings, alongside a learning guide that supports both linear and non-linear journeys.
You can read from beginning to end, dip in and out, or return to particular stories when they call.
Stories in Motion is designed for adults, teenagers, families, and anyone drawn to stories, imagination, and story-led learning.
Some stories guide you. Some stories become mirrors for who you are becoming. All of them invite transformation. All of them bring you home to wonder. Each cycle is a gentle rhythm of reading, wandering, writing, and creating.
A new cycle begins in 2026. If you feel the pull to begin, follow it.

How it Works
A Collection Of Magical Tales
Myths are stories people have always used to understand the world and their place within it.
They carry memory, meaning, and lessons shaped by lived experience.
These are the stories we return to over time, first as children full of wonder, and later as adults looking for perspective.
