One of my biggest passions growing up and to this day is rhythmic gymnastics. When I was five years old, I started going to gymnastics class each week to learn how to use the trampoline, the beams, or the bars. However, when I was eight and looked at the other gymnasts using apparatus, I was immediately sold.  Rhythmic gymnastics has always been my favourite sport since there are so many different types of apparatus and skills to learn. When I was learning, my favourite was the ribbon since it would flow nicely in the air; especially the wide ones. Each year, I would be eager to go into my gymnastics class and learn all the different skills and learn the new routines for the seasonal show. Not only do I love the sport, but the community of people you are surrounded with each week is astounding, It is special since you all share a mutual bond of loving the sport.
