My name is Nina. am from the United States and am a ballet dancer. Today, want to talk about life as an athlete and the work it takes. But what does it mean to be an athlete? Well, let’s take a look. Anyone who is serious about the sport they practice is an athlete. started doing ballet at three years old. But as a young girl, tried other sports, too. When was eight years old, went swimming twice a week. liked it a lot, but dancing was already hard work, so two sports was difficult. also tried gymnastics ’cause my friends at school did it. But always preferred ballet. It is difficult, but powerful and beautiful. And now, am training to become a professional, so dance six days a week. Each sport is different, but they all have a few things in common. How could surfing, for example, possibly be like ballet? Well, each person works hard to improve their skills for their sport. We spend hour after hour practicing. We want to get that movement, that jump, that twist, that turn just right. For me, the other very important thing that we all have in common is that we don’t do it alone. Dance teachers, surf instructors, and coaches for sports like football and volleyball, they are the ones who teach us, who help us get better at our sport. If you are thinking about joining a sport, go for it! It’s so much fun. And having fun is a really important part of being an athlete. Thank you for joining me and I’ll see you next time!
