🏅We are going to UNAA & FINA Worlds 💪🏻

Andre has put in some serious work this year! From a rough start to switching gyms, his dedication has been off the charts. Today, it ALL paid off. 🙌 To say I’m proud is an understatement!

What really stood out though was his incredible sportsmanship. He cheered on every competitor, loud and proud, no matter their gym or if he knew them personally. 💯

And the best part? He was one of only two kids in his age division to score a perfect 100% on all possible points! 🎯

Huge shoutout to for not only hosting, but also for all the support and coaching you’ve given .shorts.ninjas in such a short amount of time. 🫶🏻

Between homeschooling, ninja classes, homecooked meals, baking, book obsessions', taking care of animals, and community building, I'm forever understaffed.🤣

But life is great and I wouldn't change it for the world so, its okay.❤️
