I believe I am a person who tries to do what people say is impossible or difficult. That is one of the reasons why I chose to do gymnastics over ballet. As a gymnast I was a risk taker: I practiced skilled that were designed to be done by men on the high bar and learned and perfected a triple back on floor (I was unable to compete the skill in competition due to restrictions) ad attempted triple fronts on vaulting. All of that took a toll on my body, especially my shoulders which is not a common ailment for female gymnasts to suffer from.
