The grind and perseverance it takes to reach your goals is what makes it special.
I worked as a catcher on shows that flyers refused to fly to me; I got hit in the face and twisted nearly all of my fingers many times; I got vertigo multiple times; I flew across the planet to improve my skills; I tried with 3 different flyers over 500 times unsuccessfully; I never gave up
Today was a day that the accumulation of all those hardships, obstacles, perseverance and pains physically and mentally, molded into the biggest milestone and goal of my career.
Thanks to the trust, confidence and support of my teams, coaches and absolutely my wife, along the way, it finally happened.
@ammedtuniziani The flyer that literally was the catalyst to begin my professional career and worked in 3 different elite shows together, trusted me once more to catch him.
@rigalvis The mentor and inspiration to my path to becoming a trapeze artist gave me confidence and opportunity to keep grinding to reach my goals.
This is only the first of hundreds and my determination and grit has only gotten stronger from this!
