19.01.2022 Megan and Festy were my heroes growing up, and when I had the chance, I spent a month at Kirby Park as a working student. It was one of the most intense times of my life - hard work, hard play, and almost too much learning to keep in my head. I nearly wet myself from excitement the first time someone said to me "go get Festy for his hill ride." Don't get me wrong, I wasn't allowed on him - head groom called dibs but to me he represented (and always will represent) the pinnacle of Australian eventing horses: talented, quirky, and a gentleman. A true unicorn. Thanks Megan Jones Eventing Team for the dreams and the memories, I for one will never forget him.

19.01.2022 FEI Campus is live! A website run by the FEI to provide education related to horses and horse sports, FEI Campus is still in the process of getting all its courses online. At the moment, there are Courses on all aspects of horsemanship, including Equine anatomy, behaviour, husbandry, identification, and so much more. I'm checking out their information on Equine Behaviour, and wasn't expecting to learn anything new, but I did! It turns out "satiation (the feeling of having ea...ten enough) depends on the amount of food eaten and on the number of chewing movements. If the horses doesn't spend enough time chewing, this may lead to behavioural problems such as chewing on woodwork, crib-biting, or wind-sucking (McGreevy 2004), even if the amount of food it receives is adequate." The more you know... https://campus.fei.org/

13.01.2022 I always love putting on 1000 layers of thermals and heading to Clarendon's Winter Festival to treat our incredible dressage riders, and this is just a cherry on top! Call or text 0490 704 471 if you'd like a rider-specific Chiropractic treatment on-site at Clarendon this week. I'll be there from Thursday to Sunday, come check out all my rider vitamins and gadgets to help you sit straight and comfortable in the saddle <3 See you there!

10.01.2022 If you were guaranteed to improve performance or avoid injury by warming up before you ride, would you do it, or would you think it's too inconvenient? The three most common injuries I see in riders are shoulder rotator cuff tears, low back SIJ sprains, and knee patellofemoral pain syndrome. As part of a dynamic warm up routine, these two exercise prime your shoulder and hip external rotators to be active and do their job well while you ride. If every other professional sport encourages warming up before training and competition, why aren't we doing it too?

07.01.2022 Exciting news! A complete cure for obesity, hysteria and gout!
