All activities are aimed at being gentle and therapeutic. However there is always some degree of risk when walking outdoors, ice bathing, yoga and dancing. Please make sure you are physically fit and well enough to take part and be responsible for your own health.
All dance steps taught are designed for beginners and are therefore well within most peoples capabilities. Please wear appropriate footwear and be careful not to exert oneself too excessively.
All facilitators are experienced and qualified professionals who will do their very best to keep you at the very least safe and well.

I’m a integrative trained therapist with a Level 5 diploma (BSc, mBACP), with six years solely in private practice, three years within an addiction centre. I’ve trained at the School of Wizards, an experiential psychotherapeutic course, and am now a walking therapist for individuals and businesses. I love to host talks, workshops, day retreats as well as individual therapy.
I believe that as unique as we all are, we are also the similar. Humans, as a species have a limited amount of emotions, but the complexity about how they are seeded in our bodies, how they are expressed, and how we deal or don’t deal with them depends on many variations. As a walking therapist for individuals and businesses, my belief is that our environment, our upbringing, even our past life existence, how we are perceived in the world, and how we perceive the world impacts who we are. Everything has a role to play in our evolution.
Therapy with me is all about working together. My role is to help you through difficult times, giving you new perspectives, and unblocking what is stopping you live the life you want to. Integrative therapy means I have trained using many methodologies, primarily psychodynamic and person-centred (eg. Freud, Carl Jung) but I’ve built on my training with many other modalities from spirituality to inner engineering.
If possible, I love to walk in nature with you. To connect to something bigger than us. To allow the world to guide us. That’s why I do what I do. I love to help others unravel their patterns and behaviours. To explore themselves with a curious eye to ultimately find freedom in their minds and bodies. I do this in many ways, but mostly by being with you, and enabling you to go through your unique process to self understanding. It can be painful, it can be joyful. But ultimately it’s a path worth taking more than any other in this world right now. It’s a gift to yourself.
The exploration is supported through my education, but also life experience which has been influenced strongly by some of the best mentors in the world, and my own fascination with the human psyche.
As Founder of Soulhub, my vision is to help others understand themselves better, because from this place, the world will already be a better world.

Andrew is a skilled and intuitive Integrative Coach and Facilitator, using the power and beauty of a life of dance and understanding the principles of life. By integrating dance with a variety of other physical and metaphysical disciplines, Andrew assists individuals to find their own unique state of physical and emotional grounding, balance and empowered expression.
Andrew has devoted over 30,000 hours of his life to learning, competing, performing, judging and coaching Ballroom and Latin dance. His dance career took him all over the world as well as on to ‘BBC Strictly Come Dancing ‘ in 2005. However after suffering from burn out, depression and a variety of chronic illnesses between 2011-2016 brought on by life traumas, he realised he needed to recalibrate and re-align his life. This was the beginning of his healing journey which lead him to explore a wide selection of physical and metaphysical healing modalities including western medicine, eastern medicine, functional medicine, plant medicine and embodied practices such as Yoga, Pilates, Alexandra Technique and of course dance therapy.His work now is dedicated to incorporating, developing and sharing all his life experience to inspire and encourage; greater awareness, presence and compassionate connection for individuals, couples and businesses, supporting authentic and balanced self-expression, healing and empowerment through the appreciation of what he is calling Metaphysical Dance. This is done through intuitively creating and holding space for meaningful and nourishing connections either on a 1-2-1 basis or in group interactions.
He offers a both great depth and breadth of wisdom and skill, whether you are looking to dance just for fun or you are looking to find deeper self-realisation, connection and empowered expression. Andrew gently and compassionately helps people discover and transform themselves through embodied awareness of unconscious mental and emotional blocks that limit their fullest expression. Which then results in healthier and happier relationship with themselves and others.Let Andrew lead you through the dance of your soul with his open and kind heart, intuitive centre and focused mind.
