Personal Narrative: My Love Of Gymnastics
The definition of a community to me is a group of people who are in the same area who have the same interest and goals. A community that I am a part of is the gymnastics community. I am not only a gymnast, but I am also a gymnastics coach. I have done gymnastics for 15 years and have put in time and hard work to better not only myself, but the other gymnasts I compete with and coach. I love this sport so much that I invest a majority of my time either practicing in Pueblo, Colorado or helping kids ages 4-11. The reason I coach is so that I can pass on the love of gymnastics that I have to girls and boys. Through my experience, the gymnastics community has taught me about myself and who I am as an individual. Gymnastics has raised my self esteem

An unknown pain in my back wound me up in the trainer's office for an hour of the two and a half hour practice. After finishing the season strong, even though I wanted to give up countless times, pushing myself to work through the pain paid off at regionals. Even though I should have stopped because I made the pain and recovery time longer, I refused to give up on my team the week before regionals. The minute season ended, I decided to go see my doctor, he said I pulled a muscle, and the solution was rest, heat, and ice.…

    The most memorable thing that happened to me was when I first discovered what I’m really good at. I came across inspiring Youtube videos of old classic Roller Derby and recent ones that were published only a year ago, I knew from the moment I laid eyes on those quads that I had to try it. In less than two weeks I was a complete natural at skating, I was all about skates. I practiced all the derby stances, exercises, techniques you name it I am absolutely in love with this sport. but as much as I fantasized about doing it I never thought that I’d actually get the chance to be part of their world and have training by the Derby Dames Juniors Freshmeat Association crew, which are ranked the top thirty-one in the united states!…

    Being an active member of a community is critical to creating a good learning atmosphere. The word community is sometimes overused and does not get the emphasis it desires. People want to feel apart of something and creating a functioning system is necessary for success. I have always had a love for working with a team and as a leader, I try to help others achieve their goals. If I attended Villanova, I would make the noun community become a verb by helping others, accepting others, and leading others.…

I joined a gymnastics gym near my house in second grade when i was 9, and started competing when i was 10.

Soon enough, I wasn’t doing so well in social studies and comm skills. I was scared my mom would make me quit, But I worked as hard as I could so get back up there. Focusing more on school than outside activities, I got that grade back up and I continued with my favorite sport.
