Mon objectif athlétique est:
I love gymnastics. I have since we started going on field trips to the KGTC in kindergarten, even though we were doing the easiest and simplest of skills. In grade one, I started recreational gymnastics. I liked this a lot and kept moving into more advanced classes until I was in Advanced Rec 4, and trained four hours a week. That year, I noticed that some of the girls in my class stayed half an hour later than the rest of us. I had no idea what they were doing and asked my coach about it. She told me that they were practising for Gymnaestrada and explained that it was a big group performance. I thought that it sounded a lot more fun than doing individual routines, so the next year, I joined. That year was Western Gymnaestrada in Nanaimo. I had never been to Vancouver Island, and I was very, very, excited. We got there and performed really well. I thought that it was the coolest thing I had ever done. We were all so excited when we found out that we had been invited to perform at Canadian Gymnaestrada, and had a chance at Worlds after that. I had so much fun at Canadian Gymnaestrada and I'm sure I'll have even more fun in Helsinki, Finland, at World Gymnaestrada 2015. I'm so happy that I have this chance, and I'm so proud to have gotten this far with my team!

It takes a community to raise an athlete, and we have 10! Having the support of friends, family, the sporting community and others will really help our team achieve their dreams and goals.
