CAN YOU SHARE WITH US A LITTLE BIT ABOUT YOUR JOURNEY AND HOW YOU GOT TO WHERE YOU ARE TODAY?
When I was 8, I injured my foot and couldn’t participate at Cheer Camp or choreography. I was so heartbroken not being able to be cheer and tumble for almost 3 months.
We had a trainer who would come to our practices and he modified our conditioning workouts so that I could still participate. Once I was cleared to start really training again, I pushed myself so hard to get back to the level that I was at before my injury. I did go through a mental block after that. It was one of the hardest things in my life because I couldn’t understand why my mind was stopping me from doing what my body knew I could do.
I finally realized one day that I was the only one that could get me through this!
I had amazing coaches, teammates, and family that were routing for me, but I had the strength inside all along to believe in myself enough to get past it.
Never give up on yourself!
This is my 7th season cheering and I’m going into 7th grade!
