"It feels like magic being here, like fire burning inside my heart."

SOUTH SHORE YMCA

EARLY CHILDHOOD, TAEKWONDO

I’ve been coming to the South Shore Y since I was two and a half, and I still love it. The Y has been part of my life through swimming and Taekwondo—and honestly, it’s been the best time.

Swim team helps me get stronger, and Taekwondo teaches me discipline. I’ve made great friends, especially with kids my rank, and it just feels like home. When I’m there, I feel something powerful—like magic, like fire in my heart.

One of my proudest moments was competing in a Taekwondo tournament and winning third place in both board breaking and sparring. It felt amazing.

The Y has helped me grow, feel confident, and have fun every step of the way. Oh—and if anyone’s listening, I think we need a third floor. I love you guys!
