BELLEVUE, Wash. — A former Bellevue woman is going viral with her gymnastics floor routine that earned her perfect 10s from the judges.
Katelyn Ohashi tells KOMO the four years she spent in the professional circuit starting when she was 12-years-old were rough for her, but competing in UCLA’s program was a great change.
She says a weight was lifted when she learned that a fractured back and shoulder injuries might prevent her from competing again as body shaming had also become an issue for her on the national stage.
Ohashi is back competing on the college level and her renewed joy in the sport is evident as she performs her routine.
