In this episode of Dive Beyond Sport, hosts Freddie Woodward and Yona Knight-Wisdom sit down with Olympic trampolining champion Bryony Page. Bryony shares her journey from starting trampolining at age 9 to winning a historic gold medal in Paris, along with other Olympic medals in Rio and Tokyo. The discussion covers her love for the sport, the challenges she faced, including battling through mental blocks and personal hardships, and the invaluable support from her coaches and family. Bryony also reveals her passion for learning, her time at university, where she wrote a dissertation on dinosaur sounds, and her aspirations for the future, both in sport and potentially with Cirque du Soleil. She emphasizes the importance of self-growth, happiness, and maintaining a strong support network.
