Luckily the gym was just down our road. She advanced so fast that she made pre <br /> team the very next year. Since then she won State Champion twice. Coach Nanette, her <br /> daughter Kayla, coach Venus and some student coaches do a wonderful job in teaching the kids <br /> skills for life. Not just on physical level but life skills as confidence, time management. Health, <br /> team spirit, courage, respect.... <br /> I talk from experience. I was a Gymnast myself until 19 years old. All the skills I learnt there <br /> helped me to become a professional triathlete, first competing for Germany and then for <br /> USA/Hawaii. <br /> I got my Green Card due to my exceptional skills as an athlete. As you can see, Gymnastics <br /> opens doors and opportunities for keikis in life. <br /> For our keikis, Kona Aerials means the world. They love going there 4 times per week after <br /> school. Coach Nanette also offers classes for our Kupuna. She is a very important pillar in our <br /> community. <br /> Please approve the special permit application so our keiki and kupuna have a safe place to stay <br /> healthy and fit. <br /> Sincerely <br /> Tina Walters <br /> ,1,(,10 <br />
