A member of Okanagan Rhythmic Gymnastics (RG Stars), Andreotti just got back from Medellin, Colombia, where she qualified for all four event finals and won silver medals in Team All-Around and Individual Senior Hoop at the Pacific Rim Championships.

香蕉视频直播淭his is my first year in the senior level and my goal as a first-year senior was to not look scared,香蕉视频直播� said Andreotti, who is in the High-Performance program at Vernon Secondary School. 香蕉视频直播淚 wanted to commit to doing whatever I did with full intensity and fire.香蕉视频直播�

RG Stars香蕉视频直播� head coach Camille Martens, a former Olympian, said Andreotti surprised everyone by rising into the top of the High-Performance Senior Category at Elite Canada香蕉视频直播檚 national re-ranking event in February.

Andreotti earlier competed in the U.S., Greece, Latvia and Ukraine. She was in prime form in Colombia.

香蕉视频直播淲inning an Individual medal at Pacific Rim was awesome, but what was more exciting was how I did it. I did the best hoop routine I香蕉视频直播檝e ever done and got the highest score I香蕉视频直播檝e ever gotten (15.133) which felt so good.

香蕉视频直播淚t was a really cool event because we were not only together with other members of the Canadian Rhythmic team, but also with Canada香蕉视频直播檚 national teams for Trampoline, and Men香蕉视频直播檚 and Women香蕉视频直播檚 Artistic Gymnastics. We all competed in a huge stadium and had the chance to cheer for each other香蕉视频直播檚 events.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淚 spent a lot of time outside of my comfort zone, which was hard at times, but I think I grew a lot. Overall, I have had a blast and love being a senior.香蕉视频直播�

Andreotti has been a member of Canada香蕉视频直播檚 National Team for three years and wants more success.

香蕉视频直播淚 feel really happy with how my year is going and am looking forward to our upcoming national championships. I am working hard and can香蕉视频直播檛 wait to share my work with everyone.香蕉视频直播�
