Somatic Dance & Creative Leadership Mentoring
Guided by Helene Su — Creator of Visionary Somatic Dance™
You’ve done the mindset work.
You’ve reflected, journaled, healed, grown.
Yet something still feels like its missing — like a part of you hasn’t caught up with the life you’re ready to lead.
Not because you’re behind. Not because you're lacking.
But because your body has been protecting you in ways your mind could never understand.
Embodiment is the missing link.
When the body recalibrates, everything shifts: confidence, clarity, creative flow, emotional energy, visibility, leadership presence.
This is where your deeper transformation begins.
Is Embodied Creative Mentoring Right for You?
This is for you if you’re a heart-led leader or creative who is ready to:
⚪ Feel at home in your body again — present, grounded, alive
⚪ Reconnect with your authentic voice - honest, unfiltered, true.
⚪ Create and express with clarity and soul - without performing or pushing
⚪ Lead from love and embodied confidence
⚪ Step fully into all of you and transform through movement, somatics and nervous system intelligence
This is spacious, powerful, body-led work designed for those who carry vision, emotion and responsibility — and want a way to stay grounded, creative and whole.

Why This Work Changes Everything
Because it doesn’t ask you to “be more.”
It asks you to come home.
Mind-first change can fade.
Body-first change stays within you.
When your nervous system softens, your leadership strengthens.
When emotions move, your clarity returns.
When your body comes alive, your creativity wakes up.
When you express from truth, visibility becomes natural.
This work is for people who feel deeply, care deeply, lead deeply —
and finally want to be supported at the level they hold others.
Why Choose Visionary Somatic Dance Coaching
As a British-born Chinese practitioner, I weave east–west wisdom, expressive movement,
somatic science and creative leadership into a grounded, integrative methodology.
Visionary Somatic Dance™ is not just movement —
it’s a return to your natural aliveness, presence and creative power through the intelligence of your body.
This is leadership from the inside out.
Creative expression without performance.
Confidence without tension.
Purpose without burnout.

I was lucky to find Helene.
had a severe elbow Injury falling off a wall. The Doctors told me that I'd never straighten my arm again.... Helene gave me the mental inspiration and compassion, I truly needed to move forward with confidence and self belief.
Reminding me of my innate healing abilities, she encouraged me to feel my way to accessing movement in my locked elbow.. As time has passed I felt not only increased mobility, but a freedom to be in touch with my wildness and aliveness. Thank you, Helene.
Annaliza Thomson
Holistic Therapist and Sleep Coach
I danced for 8 weeks with Helene and it was wonderful. . She holds a really safe space. Her solidity based on her own life wisdom and willingness to dance into the unknown and be spontaneous.
The strength in her skill and yet maleability helped me to lead to real insight, pieces of treasure
I learnt to move my body in new ways which opened me up to different places to move into in life.

Frequently Asked Questions about Somatic & Creative Leadership Mentoring
What is Visionary Somatic Dance mentoring and how does it work?
Unlike traditional talk therapy or mindset-only coaching, Visionary Somatic Dance coaching works through your body, breath, voice, and movement to access deeper transformation. It combines somatic experiencing therapy, conscious dance, nervous system regulation, and embodied leadership practices in a unique neuro-science and ancient wisdom methodology I've developed over 20+ years.
Do I need dance experience for somatic movement mentoring?
Absolutely not. This somatic movement coaching isn't about technique or performance — it's about reclaiming your relationship with your body and authentic expression. Many clients begin feeling hesitant about movement, and that's completely normal. My trauma-informed approach is gentle and meets you exactly where you are.
How do I know if I'm ready for embodied transformation coaching?
You're ready if you sense there's more available to you than traditional approaches have provided. If you're experiencing disconnection from your authentic voice, creative blocks, leadership challenges, or feel called to deeper transformation through mind-body integration, this work will help.
What results can I expect from trauma-informed somatic mentoring?
While every healing journey is unique, clients typically experience: deeper self-trust and intuitive clarity, embodied calm and emotional resilience, creative breakthroughs and renewed vitality, increased confidence and authentic presence, and stronger connection to purpose and joy. This is deep somatic work that creates lasting change.
Is somatic & creative mentoring suitable if I have trauma history?
This work is trauma-informed and designed to honor your nervous system. All practices are invitational rather than forced, and you'll learn to self-regulate and set healthy boundaries. However, this is not a replacement for clinical trauma therapy, this is coaching. If you need trauma support, I can provide referrals for additional therapeutic support when appropriate.
How does online somatic coaching work effectively?
Zoom sessions are surprisingly effective for embodied work online. We use breath, voice, gentle movement, and somatic awareness practices that translate beautifully to the online format. Many clients prefer the comfort and privacy of their own space for this vulnerable transformation work.

I love your way of working with me. You have got such wisdom, humbleness and congruence about you that I feel very honoured to have these sessions with you...this is coming from my heart!'
Satu
Esalen Therapist
Helene gave me four one-on-one sessions using somatic explorations and exercises.
The first three sessions were characterised by a feeling of being stuck or trapped and wanting to open out. The final one was more like a release into something new.
Susan Brown
Yoga Teacher
I now feel more in touch with my body and what it needs and will start experimenting with moving in different ways.
Thanks Helene for your wisdom and insight. You've definitely opened up possibilities to me that I'd been wanting to move towards but didn't know how to!
