In the last of the Your Town "On The Same Page" podcast series, Founder Mark White had a conversation with Charlie Dark. 

Mark had huge respect for Charlie even before they met. Charlie is a thought leader & creator. 

We chat about a lot of things from growing up in London in the 80's, travelling the world as a DJ, his influence on the spoken word scene coming over to London, to creating a global community with "Run Dem Crew" and of course our love for running! 

More recently Charlie has found a real love & passion for Yoga and is now a teacher, plus is a global ambassador for Lululemon. 

Charlie is a mentor, coach & friend to many. I trust you enjoy the conversation we had back in April 2020 in the early days of "Lock Down"

Series 1 - EP 6 / Founder of Your Town Mark White had a great conversation with Arthur. 

Creator of Breathwork Academy and the explorer of human equanimity, Artur Paulins is working internationally to transform our access to daily calm through breathwork. “An access to equanimity (calm, stillness, contentment) should be available to everyone.”

​In his early years, he became one of the first instructors trained directly by Wim Hof. This was Artur’s first training in breath mastery, which now spans a variety of breath-based approaches to wellbeing, resilience and inner-strength. He’s tested each method rigorously and adopted a unique approach that is accessible for all across a range of formats: 

Mark & Artur spoke about his journey & what brought him to where he is today. 

Thank you Arthur for doing what you do.
