my name is Antonella I’m 11 years old and I am a level 8 gymnast at Olympus gymnastics! I’ve been doing gymnastics sense I was 7 years old! my favorite skills to work are double pikes and twisting on vault. I go to the gym every single day and I’m trying to go elite because my dream is one day to go to the Olympics and I would love to be part of the USA team or go to UCLA or CAL university! Gymnastics has taught me soooooo much things like sacrifice, responsibility, determination, love, and so much more!! my goal this year is to get a 39! It might be hard but I’m going to work really hard to get to that goal just like I did last year and I reached it!! I really love my teammates and coaches because they push me to my best and make sure that I work my hardest and they help me reach my goal!! They are super supportive and so sweet and funny!! I’m so happy of how far I have come and accomplished, like winning state and making the state team, getting 2nd at regionals, even tho i couldn’t train the TOPs program, I’m working so hard to get all the skills I need to qualify for HOPES and I see my self improving every day! Can’t wait to see what will happen this year!! Hoping for the best year and the years to come!!
