He is the founder of Omirakai Consulting and has been involved in the coaching and personal development industry since he was 17 years old when he qualified as an NLP Practitioner, training with one of the co-founders of the field, Dr Richard Bandler, along with Paul Mckenna and Michael Breen. Umar continued his studies training with Robert Dilts, a pioneer in the NLP field, at PPD in London and thereafter spent time interviewing the late Diana Beaver, another NLP trainer and author of several books in the field in the Cotswolds to further his training.
At 19 he went on to train under Paul Scheele in Photoreading exposing his mind to the field of accelerated learning. At the same training, whilst having dinner with Paul Scheele one evening, he was introduced to the field of energy work leading him to go on to train to become a Reiki Master which he utilised with clients at a complementary health clinic in Sheffield and has also spent time working with physicians and nurses at the city’s Hallamshire hospital. While studying anthropology overseas he spent time living in a forest temple with three Thai forest Buddhist monks for three weeks furthering his mediation practice whilst engaged in research for his final thesis through interviews with the monks about their practices & belief systems.
Umar currently resides in Sheffield in the UK where he enjoys spending his time engaged in NLP research, learning new skills and seeing clients.
