Explain the feeling you had the first time you put on skate? 
The first time I put my skate on I was 6, and I can remember this moment like it was yesterday. I was with my mum and my brother. It was very frustrating for me because I was watching them skating and it looked so easy, but I couldn’t even stand on my feet haha. I didn’t give up, I practiced hard and harderuntil it became an amazing feeling of freedom and fullness.

 

What is your inspiration to keep skating? 
I can tell that my inspiration to keep skating is my best friend Armelle Tisler. I skate and travel with her very frequently since 2021. She is a big support and a source of inspiration for me because she is so motivated, she truly loves skating, and she shares this passion with every person she skates with. She taught me to be more consistent in my skating.

Inline skating is a sport and an art. The best way to improve your mental and body health. Have balanced people make the world better. 

 

How do you keep progressing and reinventingyourself? 
By progressing on the physical aspect whichhelps and open new doors for skating. I also try to put myself out of my comfort zone all the time. Sometimes It’s very uncomfortablebut I think it's a good way to keep growing. 

 

What’s the most helpful tip you want to sharewith any skater? 
The thing which helped me a lot in my life and especially when I started competitions was to never compare myself to others. Give the best out of yourself in any situation, respect yourself and your body. You don’t have to impress anyone,do it for yourself. 

Imagine a world filled with animals who can skate. If you could be any of those animalswhat would you be and why? 
If I could be an animal, it would definitely bea Taurus. I’ve got one tattooed on my arm. I’msturdyand I never give up, like a Taurus. Sometimes I’m a little bit stubborn and it’sdifficult for me to change my mindset but I’mworking on it to be a better Taurus 😊
