ATHLETE OF THE MONTH SPONSORED BY BASS FAMILY CHIROPRACTIC

ARIANA HEDA Rising 7th grader at Maplewood Middle School Sport: Synchronized Skating My favorite thing about skating is when I spend a lot of time on the ice and get better and better at it. I really like synchronized skating because I get to work with my team and become the best we can be. Goals One thing I would improve on in my skating would be to keep building my stamina up. I’m also working on moving up another level … I want to get better and continue to move up. Maybe one day I’ll get a scholarship to skate in college and compete at the highest levels. I recent ly passed a test just 30 days after passing the level before and I’m proud of this accomplishment. I also want to complete all of my skating tests soon. I like to push myself but I still want to have fun and skating gives me both of those things. One thing I realized recently is that it’s important to have fun because you spend a lot of time working on getting better - you have to enjoy it and I do! Favorite things: School Subject: Science Exercise: Sit ups Food: Penne with vodka sauce Least favorite things: School Subject: ELA Exercise: Burpees Food: Steak that isn’t well cooked

Hobbies: I love going to the beach and hanging out with my friends.
