I can pop both my shoulders out. I spend a lot of time on my own with my dogs, they are my favourite things in the world.
I am going to go back and study a diploma of rehab and studio pilates. Its helped so much with my rehab and I think it’s a good transition to the next stage of my life.
Qualifying for my second Olympic Games in 2016 after a four-year break from the sport due to injury.
I just hang out with my dogs… haha no, I really like pilates and reading. Crime books and horror movies.
