Why I Love Olimar dos Santos’ Skill-sets For Competitive Gymnastics

As an accomplished gymnast, Olivia Dunne has always been working hard to make a place for herself internationally, at the beginning of 2021. The Olympics is definitely a goal she has held since childhood. This is why she is so excited to follow the progress of young gymnasts like herself who continue to raise the bar for artistic ambition and daring floor work! The very first time I saw “Olivia Dunne: Nikesolution” was a little over a year ago and since then I have always been eager to see what new gymnastics she would bring to the world stage. For someone who has never really done any sort of gymnastics before, it can be a little intimidating to learn all of the new variations, especially since some of them you will have trouble doing on your own in front of a lot of people.

However, as someone who has done a ton of different and impressive things in her gymnastics career, I was thrilled to see how committed she was to make a name for herself and setting new goals for herself. She has also made a lot of friends along the way, which is always a good thing, especially when you are young. All of these things add up to a pretty impressive resume for an athlete of her caliber, but I think what really puts Olivia Dunne in a class of her own is her ability to keep true to her roots while still developing into a true athlete. As someone who is truly a national team level gymnast first and foremost, there are some things that are just not done. For example, the all-around gymnast is able to do tuck, handstand, pike walk, beam stand, toe tap, pole vault, tuck, and reverse dime. These are all skills that are not typically taught to beginning young athletes, and I think this is one of the main reasons why Olivia Dunne has been able to develop those skills into a very impressive resume.

I think that many people are going to be very surprised when they discover just how good Olivia Dunne is at the beam. If you haven’t seen her in person, then I highly recommend that you find her and watch her videos. They are incredible. She should be booked for every U.S. Classic Team event and probably the U.S. Olympic Team Trials as well. She has already demonstrated that she is a true all-around talent and should be able to fill out a strong beam suit with ease.
