A girl from Barranquilla is the new pearl of gymnastics

Hops go and hops come inside the gym. Laughter prevails in that group, and most of the girls, who arrive about mid-afternoon, were already preparing to rehearse. The coaches prepare all the supplies, while the parents greet each other in the waiting room.

Violetta Arroyo Barbosa, dressed in a costume that indicates her name, finishes up the stairs with her parents and passes the turnstile that separates the reception from the training area. She greets several of her teammates, shakes hands with her coach, and starts warming up to start the event.

– Hello, how are you? Violetta, right?, confirmed the writer of this note.
– Hello – he answers with a smile -, Yes, of course, Violetta, but with a double tt … Well? (Laugh).

Skill is notable leagues or, as the popular saying goes, “Quality is not improvised.” Violetta installs the balance beam, spreads her legs and begins to raise her body completely naturally, until it becomes completely straight. Surely, whoever sees it for the first time will be inclined to make a mistake. We are talking about a girl of only seven years old, who in a year of training already holds a three-time national championship on her back.
