Stephanie Flanigan serves as a Lecturer at Anglia Ruskin University within the Writtle School of Agriculture, Animal and Environmental Sciences, Faculty of Science and Engineering. She teaches across equine science, business, and event management disciplines while providing research supervision in biomechanics and kinematics.
Her educational background includes:
- FdA Equine Business Management from Hartpury College
- BSc Equine Performance and Business Management from Writtle University College
- MSc Equine Performance Science from Writtle University College
- BHS Stage 1, 2 (including teaching), and 3 (including teaching)
- PTLLS Level 3 Teaching Qualification
Flanigan's research centers on equine biomechanics with specific focus on rider asymmetry and its impact on equine movement patterns. She investigates how pelvic asymmetry affects saddle weight distribution and limb kinematics, while also exploring gaze analysis during show jumping. Her work bridges scientific analysis with practical applications in equine performance and rider-horse interaction dynamics.
As a supervisor, she guides student research in biomechanics and kinematics methodologies. Flanigan presented her undergraduate dissertation on rider asymmetry at the Hartpury Alltech Conference 2021 and has contributed to studies examining rider gaze during jumping courses, demonstrating her commitment to advancing equine science through empirical research.
