​
Pollyanna has been in the sport industry for over 10 years, having started as a coach and gaining a BSc in Sport Coaching and Sport Science.  She further developed her understanding by completing an MSc in Sport Coaching and worked for many years with a number of sports. Pollyanna saw that athletes occasionally became injured, and frustration that she could not help them with this led her to qualify in sport and remedial massage. She also went onto become a Sports Therapist by completing an MSc.  During this time Pollyanna also increased her knowledge in strength and conditioning as well as Pilates.  Pollyanna has worked with a wide variety of sports from grass roots to elite level and now focuses on sports injuries and uses Pilates to help with rehabilitation as well as encouraging clients to use the method to help reduce injuries.
​
Pollyanna works with a number of riders and felt that Equipilates™ would benefit her clients.  As a result, Pollyanna qualified as an Equipilates Biomechanics Trainer™ and is now incorporating it into the assessment, diagnosis and treatment of her riders.  Pollyanna has been riding for many years and although she did have to take a break while studying, she now likes to dabble in all disciplines. Her real enjoyment though comes from jumping and a good gallop with her horse Travis.  Pollyanna also plays hockey and cycles when she is not spending time with her horse.
