Basement reno

Oliver from Hillcrest

Hello neighbours, im reaching out in the hopes someone much more knowledgeable can point me in the right direction!

I'd like to turn my basement into some sort of a hobby room/workshop area. Rather annoyingly though there is what i can only guess is some sort of reinforcing in the form of soil.

First of all i would like to know if it's possible to remove the soil and in it's place replace it with some sort of concrete reinforcing.
Secondly, if that is even possible what sort of work would be required? Is it a matter of concrete reinforcing in the form of spray-on concrete or would it be steel rods with concrete etc.

Thank you :)

Yes I am all of the above, please can anyone suggest recommend someplace I can go ( but not the glue factory yet) for some way of easing up years of building work so I can move more easily, think stretching exercise type stuff.
I live in Mairangi Bay, more than happy to do one to one ☝️ just need to sort it. Ideally not too far away.
Thank you
