Victoria Kahn (APA Titled Sports and Exercise Physiotherapist) was the Medical Manager and Physiotherapist for the Australian Equestrian Team at the 2012 and 2016 Olympic and Paralympic Games and the 2010 and 2014 World Equestrian Games, where her relationship with Amanda Ross began.

• In addition to working with Equestrian Australia, Vic has worked in the Australian Football League (AFL), cricket, and with the Australian Wheelchair Rugby Team and provides insights on how athletes and their rehabilitation differ across sports.
• Find out how Vic helped Amanda with her self-described "ridiculous hip" after hobbling into Vic's office. Sadly, there are no magic wands, Amanda had to really put in the work and do all of her prescribed exercises and got gold stars from Vic for her efforts!
• Nod your head with Vic's ongoing surprise that we treat our horses injuries much more seriously than our own! "I was so struck by the meticulous equine injury management... but there was not a second, third, fourth or even fifth thought for the athlete's own injury!"
• Listen to them discuss what riders can do to look after and improve their position, as well as key areas equestrians can benefit from such as spinal mobility, overall symmetry and alignment, core strength and stability, and, ankle range and stability. 
• Hear both Amanda Ross and Bex Mason talk about their injuries and how they work with their own movement specialists to maintain their bodies to perform at the top of their sport.

All this and so much more in this episode of THE EQUESTRIAN EXPERIENCE.

In their inaugural episode, Aussie Amanda (Eventer, Olympian) and British Bex (International Grand Prix Showjumper) talk about the differences between owning and competing horses in each country. 

With Bex's sister living down-under in Sydney, Australia, and Amanda having competed and purchased horses in England, the two have real-life horsey experiences in each other's countries which cause much debate. 

• Which horses and riders are tougher? Join the debate - as British horses can handle wet, muddy conditions with ease, the Aussies can handle being outdoor 24/7 come shine, shine or shine!
• How do Amanda's horses from Ireland go in Australia, and which habits have they kept which make them stand out from the Aussie crowd?
• Horses are keen athletes - how do their showjumping and eventing horses differ, what do they look for in horses, and how do they develop their horses for maximum power and soundness?
• Which country has the best leisure riding/hacking out spaces and gallops?
• How do Amanda and Bex plan out their week for horse and rider fitness and competitions? Do they stick to a regular schedule?

All this and so much more in this episode of THE EQUESTRIAN EXPERIENCE.
