Manuela Berchtold is a pioneer in Australian Olympic history. Before we could walk on the moon we had to first realise it was possible to reach outer space. Manuela represented Australia at the 2002 Salt Lake City and 2006 Torino Winter Olympics. In between these games Manuela had to overcome two knee reconstructions, which is absolutely incredible. Manuela set a new high for Australian women moguls reaching the final, showing the next generation anything is possible if you put in the work. Now as the Founder of High Country Fitness and SnowFitness Manuela continually sets a high bar for the industry. If someone could bottle the energy Manuela has they would be an overnight millionaire. We go into a number of defining moments throughout Manuela's life which I find absolutely fascinating.
