Stephanie has previously worked as a consultant physiotherapist for The Australian Ballet, where she was responsible for the assessment, treatment, and rehabilitation of dancers.

Prior to this, she spent nine years consulting for Tennis Australia, where she gained significant exposure to the injury management of elite junior and professional tennis players.

Stephanie's personal journey has significantly informed her clinical practice. Having undergone multiple shoulder surgeries and rehabilitation has provided her with a deeper understanding of the intricacies involved in the diagnosis, treatment, and exercise prescription for shoulder injuries. This first-hand experience has not only heightened her empathy but has also strengthened her knowledge of the requirements for successful rehabilitation, further shaping her approach to injury management.

With over a decade of experience instructing both individual and group Pilates sessions, she is dedicated to helping clients achieve functional improvements, optimize performance, and increase independence through evidence-based rehabilitation strategies. Her holistic approach is grounded in her belief that tailored exercise interventions can profoundly impact recovery and long-term health.

Stephanie’s academic background and clinical expertise are further complemented by her competitive sports experience, having competed at an elite level in both softball and track sprinting. This background in high-performance sport has cultivated her passion for injury prevention and management, and reinforced her understanding of the role physiotherapy plays in enhancing physical function and quality of life.
