Rachel is a somatic educator, somatic coach, trainer and mentor who is passionate about supporting people to access a more enjoyable and more fully realised experience of being in a body on the planet. 

Rachel's work is informed by her background in dance, movement and professional performance training and over 18 years of hands on work with clients.

At acting school 20 years ago, she re-learnt how to walk, sit and stand using neuroplastic somatic practices, Alexander Technique and Feldenkrais Method, which permanently relieved her of chronic lower back pain, jaw and neck tension, and changed her life. These experiences ignited in her a life long fascination with somatic enquiry and curiosity about the nature of biological intelligence. It also profoundly transformed her understanding of what kind of change we are capable of as a species.   

She has trained in many bodywork modalities and somatic movement and education practices and continues to evolve her methods. She is passionate about continuing her enquiry with current research and is fully insured. 

She has been working as a facilitator and somatic educator for over 15 years. Offering workshops and individual sessions exploring natural biological intelligence as a resource in self-management, integration, awareness, vision clarification, creativity, range and choice. 

Rachel is co-lead trainer at The Somatic School equipping coaches, trainers and 'body' people to work with the intelligent body in coaching. 
She is a  Feldenkrais Practitioner (In training)
