“During my STAPS training in sports training, I did my internship at Nice Gym with a team of pre-chicks. It is thanks to this internship that I set foot in the training in gymnastics and I discovered my passion there. As soon as I obtained my license I had the chance to discover the Monaco Star and find my place there. I’m training with the club for the third year and I have the pleasure of playing with some of those pre-chicks of the time to this day. Plus I’m part of the TOP 12 team.”
