Pippa Hepburn

For many years, I was an artistic gymnast and was lucky enough to represent my club in competitions across Scotland. Gymnastics taught me self-discipline and the importance of staying focussed. Although it is an individual sport, I thrive in team settings, enjoying both listening and sharing ideas with others.

Leading warm-up stretches helped me gain confidence in communicating with older and younger gymnasts. I am extremely hard working and always push to improve in whatever I am working towards.
