Ever since I was a very young child, sports have been a big part of my life, I learned from my parents that “every sport has skills to learn. – Before Jiu-Jitsu, I did gymnastics. When I first started doing gymnastics I just loved and wanted to compete professionally. Gymnastics has helped me with my strength, flexibility, speed, balance, and coordination skills. At the age of 6, I decided that, although I loved gymnastics, I wanted to start training jiu-jitsu. Jiu-Jitsu has been part of my life since I was born. My dad is my great inspiration, he has really inspired me in my Jiu-Jitsu journey. And I am so grateful that I began my Jiu-Jitsu journey at a young age because I see how much this sport has positively impacted my life.

In 2021, I had my first Jiu-Jitsu competition, the 2021 PAN KIDS Championship, the most prestigious tournament for kids. I got 2nd place after 5 matches and absolutely loved the atmosphere, and I could not wait for my next one!

As soon as PAN KIDS was over, I told my dad to get me ready for my jiu-jitsu competition journey and I asked him to help me to reach all my dreams in the sport. I have a dream of becoming a black belt at the age of 19 and be the youngest female ADCC and Worlds GI champion in the same year. And I will do everything I can to accomplish every single dream!I tried to spend as much time as I can at the gym! Going to the gym is the best part of my day. The gym has become my second home and my teammates have become my second family, we love each other and we respect each other.

Hyperfly truly speaks through my heart because we believe in the same thing. You can't teach heart.
