We know this is not your first time at a world championship, could you tell us a little about your experience?

Yes, this is my second participation; the first was last year in Switzerland where I got the bronze.  I hope here in Moscow to improve my performance and take home a medal.

 

You are the first and only female representative for Spain; does it represent pressure for you?

No, not at all.  I feel that everyone should do what they like and give their best effort to obtain what they want.  Never give up and, and give their best every day.

Six years ago.  I started training while in I was studying at the University, and from there on I have not stopped practicing.

I would like to tell them to continue training and search to the continued improvement every single day.  This is a beautiful sport and provides many possibilities to constantly improve.

 

Would you like to thank someone?
