    What's it like wearing the wonder woman costume or dancing in one of Paris's most renowned theatre shows?Whilst casually mentioning a childhood swimming in rivers infested with tiger sharks, one wonders if Aussie stunt women are even afraid of anything? Endearingly self-deprecating, suggesting she was a terrible dancer at a young age, Christiaan landed a job in Paris at the Moulin Rouge before embarking on a journey into stunt performing where she became Gal Gadot’s lead double in a series of films with Wonder Woman. This conversation reflects on the balance of motherhood and being a physical performer and the demands of travelling constantly for film work.
