Online Street Wisdom Walkshop Club - Drop in from wherever you are! Wednesday 1st April 2026, 1pm UK time

Join Street Wisdom's Vanessa Barlow for a 1 hour online Street Wisdom Walkshop meeting on Zoom. It's a great way to keep up your Street Wisdom practice or experience it for the first time. This special online format is for regular Street Wisdom practitioners and people new to Street Wisdom alike. Join with Zoom on your phone from outdoors wherever you are, or using Zoom on a laptop indoors, and we'll have a go at the Street Wisdom technique and share our stories. It's especially great to join us if you're interested to lead your own in-person Street Wisdom Walkshop this year, or if you're building your own long-term Street Wisdom practice. What is Street Wisdom? Street Wisdom is an everyday creative practice you use as you walk. A smart fusion of mindfulness, neuroscience, imagination and wellness, it unlocks minds and unblocks creativity with every step. The perfect complement to static meditation, Street Wisdom takes you on a physical journey that not only calms and clears the mind, but opens up the subconscious to new ideas. Not to mention the potential health benefits of walking outdoors. All without having to travel to exotic climes or retreats. Suddenly, every street is full of inspiration. And whatever your questions, we are finding answers everywhere.  What can I expect from an online Walkshop? You'll meet the host at the announced time using the Zoom link we send you. The host will introduce everyone to the Walkshop and to the ideas behind Street Wisdom before setting you off. The Walkshop is in three parts. First, there's the Tune Up, where you will go on three micro-walks by yourself using the host's guidance. Then there's the Quest, which is the heart of the experience, a longer walk by yourself, and an opportunity to ask the streets a question and get some fresh answers. After you've done that, you'll come back as a group and Share what you learn with each other. It's such a simple, wonderful, potentially transformative experience! Why the booking fee? ​Street Wisdom is a non-profit on a mission to bring inspiration to every street on planet earth. We were founded by innovator in business, the arts and social change, David Pearl, and we are fuelled by our amazing volunteer hosts all around the world who lead the Walkshops for free. There is no charge for the Walkshop experience, just a small non-refundable booking fee which helps us cover the cost of processing your booking and reserving your place. Every individual booking for a Street Wisdom Walkshop actually costs us over £20 / $20 / €20 to administer, which we fundraise for during the year through our work at Street Wisdom with pioneering businesses. If you know a company may be interested, do get in touch with Vanessa at vanessa@pearlworks.net. Thank you if you are able to choose a ticket that includes a donation, helping us keep Street Wisdom free for as many people as possible. ​Sign up, show up ​We ask that if you sign up, you will show up. Our volunteer hosts commit a lot of time and energy to organising these in-person sessions, making it possible for people to practise Street Wisdom all around the world. We understand that sometimes life gets in the way, meaning under rare circumstances you can't attend at the last minute, but as a rule if you sign up, you're saying you will show up. Thank you for honouring that. Stay streetwise The Street Wisdom Walkshop has a risk disclaimer (see below) which you agree to by making a booking. This is to remind you that the wonderful big outdoor world - as well as potentially containing fresh new insights, ideas and intention - contains all sorts of things including risks, and so it's important to be vigilant. We think Street Wisdom is about heightening your awareness, the kind that means you're becoming more alert, rather than zoning out. So importantly: have fun, find your Street Wisdom, but also be streetwise.  More about your Walkshop host Life began for Vanessa with a quest for glamour and a 20 year career in fashion, travelling the world and developing brands for an eclectic mix of designers. A move to a coastal life prompted a swap of the catwalk for a different form of creativity, as a brand consultant in the world of wellbeing; green smoothies replaced cocktails and cold water swimming for nightclubs! Vanessa now works with Street Wisdom inventor David Pearl producing innovative and human experiences for corporations and their teams around the globe. Having volunteered at The Samaritans as a listener and outreach worker for several years and studying life coaching with The Academy of Modern Psychology, Vanessa also mentors young businesses and coaches individuals at all stages of life.

Whilst any personal injury or loss is unlikely, we encourage participants to remain vigilant when out on the streets and we are not liable for any injury or loss caused when taking part in a Street Wisdom activity.
