Higher Education Academic Lead for Equine
With nearly 14 years of teaching experience, Becky utilises her previous industry experience in microbiology and equine therapy to inform her teaching. She is a member of the committee developing Equine Hydrotherapy qualifications with ABC.
Becky was an equine therapist for nine years and has a postgraduate diploma - McTimoney Corley Animal Manipulation.
Becky's research focuses on behaviour, equitation science and equine injury. She has contributed to a number of research publications and presentations - both nationally and internationally - on the complex subject of equine therapy. Topics have varied from impinging dorsal spinal processes (characteristics and treatment impact) to the impact of wind surgery on a thoroughbred racehorse's performance.
She is keen to continue exploring equine therapy on a water treadmill.
