Q & A

What is one barrier you have overcome? How did you do it and what did you learn?

Due to the fact that I have poor coordination of movements, I could not perform dance moves, I could not repeat the combination of exercises well, also due to the fact that I have one kidney, I could not withstand physical exertion for a long time. But thanks to the support of my parents and coach, I was able to develop my dancing talent and strengthen my body. I have been dancing for 12 years, I attend two group classes and one individual class every week, and I also train every day at home. I overcame my fear and learned to ride a bike, which allowed me to better learn how to control my body while working my arms and legs at the same time. I also do gymnastics, do stretches, do splits, at first it was very difficult, but now, thanks to discipline, I have achieved good results. I take part in local and international competitions.
