I’m an Australian wheelchair tennis champion. I’ve competed in two Paralympics—London and Rio—and was ranked eighth in the world.
At age 13, I began a three-year battle with cancer. The only way to save my life was to remove the right half of my pelvis. I was in a wheelchair for many years, but secretly always wondered if I’d be able to walk long distances again.
Through Calligraphy Qigong, not only did I walk again, but I put my wheelchair away and went on to hike one of the hardest treks in the world: the Kokoda Track. In addition to giving me back my mobility, the practices healed the chronic pain I lived with for 15 years. There's nothing I love more than practicing on the beach.
For the last 10 years I've been sharing my journey and the lessons I've learned with individuals, schools and businesses.
