Using the case study of Soulhub Ltd (www.soulhub.co.uk). Founder and Walking Therapist Carmen Rendell together with co-director and Therapeutic Dance & Life Coach Andrew Cuerden, share candidly their experiences of building a soulful community, business and private practices.
This workshop will focus on what they’ve learnt over 9 years of building the brand, from the dream to the reality.
Don’t expect a formulaic presentation on business start-up and growth (there’s enough of these about), but more a delivery aligned to the key elements of intention, vision, co-creation and trust.
Soulhub is a Wellbeing Consultancy and Community that supports practitioners, individuals, communities and businesses to understand themselves better.

Presenter
Andrew is an artistic soul-preneur, who has been dancing for 37 years of which 27 of those years has been as an international competitor, performer, teacher and judge. Reaching top 24 in the world competitive dance rankings and being a BBC Strictly Professional in 2005.
Andrew’s life has also been dedicated to exploring and practicing psycho-somatics, metaphysics as well as yoga, meditation. Since his own health crisis and healing journey he has dedicated himself to understanding the fundamental mechanics of life and begun to see the amazing correlations with dance.
Hence he has created his own therapeutic dance and life coaching modality called **Metaphysical Dance**. A unique and integrative way of exploring the energetics of life through the metaphor and practice of dance, in his case Ballroom & Latin dancing, as the primary vehicle. Where the fundamental principles of dance such as balance, timing, alignment, integration, leadership & followership are explored more intimately and related to life. Hence t’s an opportunity to find the freedom of expression and flow within the safety of structured patterns and rhythms. Enabling everyone to dance with life more harmoniously.
Carmen Rendell moved from 20 years of Corporate Communication roles of understanding humans from the outside in, to walking therapy to use nature to help self understanding.
She founded Soulhub in 2015, a wellbeing business that looks to bridge worlds and asks us to look at health from an integrated standing. She’s passionate about self understanding and getting to the core of who we are, to change how we show up in the world.
Walking therapy, or Soulwalking as she likes to call it enables us to connect to nature and ourselves in a new way. Working this way with clients for 6 years Carmen has got to understand the common themes that nature helps us understand, from diversity, wildness and unpredictability which underpins much of the pain and suffering in this world.
She will help you navigate some of the considerations to setting yourself up, but also provide ideas and tools to help you use nature with your clients.
She believes nature heals us all as we are intrinsic and connected, and so working within this space has supported many clients through change, grief, depression, anxiety, addiction and chronic conditions.
