Spoken Word Workshop

October 2026, London.

A space to share, learn, and grow as Christian poets together.

We all have a story to tell and yet there are so many barriers that hold us back. As we workshop together we hope that you will leave feeling more inspired and equipped to create and deliver Spoken Word pieces.

The task of writing, perfecting and performing Spoken Word can seem daunting. We want to inspire, encourage and equip women to give it a go. So, whether you've performed live or haven't even started, you are really welcome to join us.

  • “I was feeling a bit nervous on the trip to London; notebook open on my lap, running though my Spoken Word piece under my breath, butterflies in my stomach. Who wouldn’t be? It’s creative, it’s personal, we were inviting (constructive) criticism, and other women would also be sharing theirs – so even though it wasn’t competitive there would be inevitable comparison; and I didn’t expect to come out of it well.

    It turned out most of us were feeling like that about participating in the workshop. So how did we all end up feeling comfortable enough to read and perform our pieces, and why did I enjoy it so much that I’d do it all again?”
