Rachel Schumacher has worked actively with children in the sports industry in Hong Kong for 12 years, from running sports curriculum's and classes to outdoor physical education camps.

Acquiring a vast understanding and in depth knowledge both personally and
professionally about the importance of movement for the health and well being of the brain and body, she also noticed a constant and significant connection between the brain and body regarding movement and learning.

Having a natural interest in the mind and body connection, and the concept that learning is not all in the head, her passion of working with children and believing that every individual deserves the chance to achieve to the best of their ability, inspired and made her determined to dig deeper to find the ROOT CAUSE OF LEARNING DIFFICULTIES.

Convinced that an eco-systemic and practical approach was called for, she trained and studied with Professor Shirley Kokot in South Africa, and is a certified Integrated Learning Therapy practitioner and HANDLE®Screener.

Rachel has brought the therapies back to Hong Kong to benefit families that are looking for different approaches to help their children over come learning and social challenges.

Rachel believes in talking openly to the child and the parents about the every day struggles and difficulties that they face.  It is her aim to enable her clients to respond to their environment appropriately and realize their own personal potential. That is, after all, the opportunity that every child deserves.
