And he said she practices 18 hours a week , which is crazy because it just shows that , you know , you can be good at your sport and not have to , like , kill yourself and go through , you know , traumatizing things . Um , anyway , I continued gymnastics . So I was 15 and when I was 15 , I was a level 10 going elite .
Like you're still like learning to do so many things just going to school . Um , so I ended up quitting gymnastics . Um , just because there was like a lot of toxicity in the gymnastics place , which I know a lot of people can relate to and not even in gymnastics , you know , just in sports in general , there's always gonna be some toxic coaches and , you know , some people get stuck with them and some don't .
And the reason they took me and not my sister was , they said I was cuter which you can also like already see how that can be a little of a red flag . But anyway , I started my competitive gymnastics when I was 10 and when I first started , I loved it and I excelled in it and it was really fun . Um , but once I got up in the levels , it kind of took away the fun part with the coaches .
It was definitely a roller coaster of what happened and what , what went on there . Um , but it kind of , you know , took me back to the gymnastics days . Um , and so I got out of there and now I'm at UCL A and I love UCL A and obviously there's so much opportunity here .
Um , but once I got up in the levels , it kind of took away the fun part with the coaches . And I actually remember one competition I went to , which is Westerns , which if you're in gymnastics , you know what Westerns is , it's level nine nationals . And when I was at Westerns .
