I didn't know I wanted to be a gymnast; I was just introduced to the gym. I loved the place because it looked like a hi-tech playground with mats and a lot of things I can hang from.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I loved gymnastics. I was eager to compete. I was hungry to go out there and be the best in the world, and I had that determination.
I was a gymnast for years.
My first experience with gymnastics was when I was in daycare. We took a field trip to a gym, and I was hooked.
When I was young I wanted to be a gymnast. I used to compete at it, but then I grew too tall.
I've always lived my gymnastics career with a lot of passion and a lot of purpose.
My parents enrolled me in a gymnastics class when I was three years old, and I just was drawn to gymnastics. I loved it. It was my playground, and I could run around and be free there.
Gymnastics was my way to travelling the world.
I was a gymnast when I was younger. My parents put me in gymnastics, and I was actually only good at the floor. I was terrible at everything else, especially beam. Unfortunately, you can't be a gymnast unless you're good at all of the apparatuses, so I became a competitive cheerleader. I was just the main tumbler for my squad.
I started gymnastics when I was six years old. I was at day care, and they took us on a field trip to a gym club, Bannon's Gymnastix in Houston, and that's how I got started.
I have always been a huge fan of gymnastics.
