I watched my siblings train whenever my parents fetched them and brought me along. After a while, I slowly picked up the sport and it became a family’s affair. I like to eat black pepper crab and home-cooked nasi lemak.

Gymnastics is a sport which maximises your propensity to learn new skills and improve yourself. This characteristic makes it fun and competitive at the same time. When I feel weary after an overseas competition, I just lie down on my bed and sleep.

Rhythmic gymnastics is a marriage of both art and sports. Graceful and aesthetically pleasing, it demands a high degree of discipline and athletic fitness. They are precisely the areas I want to develop. I have a sweet tooth for desserts with creamy durian pulps. I cannot resist them!

I am an avid reader. I would love to read, but due to busy schedule, I have put off again and again. Whenever I return from overseas competitions, I will make full use of this precious “gap” to read the books that I’ve bought by the end of this year.

My love for gymnastics is closely associated with the comradery among team mates. As we train hard together, the mutual friendship grows stronger over the years. As a Hainanese, no prizes for guessing what my favourite food is. Of course, it has to be chicken rice!

Being an agile girl, I was captivated by the “flipping and flying” that gymnasts seemed to effortlessly execute. For me, it was love at first sight with the sport. I am a regular patron at town area, as there are lots of shopping to do there!

My biggest achievement is overcoming several injuries due to growth spurt and high intensity training the past 3 years. Even with taped knees, thighs, arm, hips my training continues with the help of my physiotherapist and coach. It made me a stronger gymnast mentally & physically.

I was a very active girl, often running around and jumping. At age four, my parents’ friend spotted the intrinsic talent in me. He introduced me to Artistic Gymnastics. Since then, I never stop doing gymnastics. I cannot resist chicken rice, along with the nice fragrance of the rice and tender juicy chicken with a hint of sesame oil.

Support from Singaporeans is important to me because it gives me the drive to be the best that i can be.

I was a really active kid when I was younger. One day, my mum and I chanced upon a sports for life programme at Bishan sports hall. They had a gymnastics trial, and my mum brought me there. That was where I first got my interest in this sport.
