About Mo Thissen
We are delighted to be working with our neighbour Mo Thissen, founder of Soul Space who we are partnering with to make this Storyhouse Women event happen.
Mo’s journey to creating Soul Space is deeply personal. After experiencing mental health struggles linked to childhood trauma, she discovered yoga at 18 and then during lockdown began studying online. What started as a tool for her own healing soon grew into a passion to support others. She began by running community classes, and in November 2024, her dream of opening her own studio became a reality.
In just one year, Soul Space has blossomed into one of Chester’s most loved wellbeing hubs — with over 100 people through the doors every week. The centre offers classes seven days a week and caters to all levels and preferences. The timetable features a wide range of styles and these thoughtfully curated offerings reflect Mo’s belief that yoga should be accessible, varied and welcoming to all.
What truly sets Soul Space apart is its commitment to cultivating community and creating a safe, nurturing environment. It has become a hub where people connect, unwind, and rediscover themselves. Beyond yoga classes, Soul Space hosts a wide variety of wellbeing events and experiences.
