From Stories to Presentations.
Master the Art of Speaking to an Audience.
What do we do?
We help people become confident and compelling English public speakers. Through practical coaching and personal guidance, we focus on articulation, stage presence, voice work, and strong voice projection.
The result? Better connection with people, the ability to move and influence a crowd, stronger impact in business presentations, more natural English conversations, and an overall boost in social confidence. Our goal is to help you express yourself clearly, confidently, and powerfully—on stage and in everyday life.
Our Events & Programs

KRAKOW STORY SLAM
Krakow Story Slam is a fun, friendly event where anyone can step on stage and share a true, 7-minute story from their life. It’s casual, welcoming, and a great way to meet people — or to finally tell that story you’ve been sitting on.
How it works
- Stories must be true and based on your own experience.
- No notes on stage — tell it naturally.
- Stick to 7 minutes (we’ll gently remind you if you go over).
- Follow the theme of the night.
This is a friendly competition
Each storyteller is judged on:
- Connection with the audience
- How well the story fits the theme
- Public speaking + presence
It’s lighthearted, supportive, and the audience is always on your side. There’s a small prize for the winner — but really, the fun is in the telling.
What makes a good story?
A strong story usually has:
- A clear beginning, middle, and ending
- A moment of change or realization
- Emotion, humour, or something that pulls the audience in
- Your unique voice — not perfection
Why join?
It’s a fantastic way to improve your English, gain presentation confidence, and practice public speaking in a warm, encouraging space.
Come listen, come learn, or come tell your story. Every voice adds something special to the night.

Meet the Founder: Oliver
Oliver has been a passionate story slammer since 2014 — back when he would gladly drive 1.5 hours just to be part of a local storytelling community in Calgary, Alberta. His love for short stories, “slice-of-life” moments, and meaningful human connection has shaped everything he does.
From those early storytelling nights to today, Oliver has always believed in the power of people gathering, sharing, and growing together. His heart for community building and creating welcoming spaces is what inspires the events he leads now.
For Oliver, storytelling isn’t just entertainment — it’s a way to bring people together, spark confidence, and remind us that everyone has a story worth hearing.
