Amanda Ross is an equestrian coach, world class eventer, and she rides for Australia. Amanda Ross’ career has been extraordinary, and her commitment to fitness absolute.
Amanda has been competing in equestrian sports for more than 30 years. She was a reserve for the World Equestrian Games in 1998, 2010 and 2018, and a member of the Australian team for the Oceana Eventing Team in 1999 and 2019. She competed in the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games and is shortlisted for Tokyo. Add FEI Dressage and Grand Prix jumping to her resume, and a picture emerges of a highly capable, all-round equestrian athlete. 

Amanda is an enthusiastic proponent of fitness: “We are doing a sport and in any sport you do you need to be fit for purpose. As equestrians, we are fortunate that we can ride for a very long time, we’re not restricted by age. But no matter how old you are, the fitter you are the less likely you are to fall off and the better you’ll recover if you do.”
