Local gymnast Eve Sentlinger is one of BC’s outstanding athletes in Women’s Artistic Gymnastics. Five years ago Eve got her start in this sport at the Bowen Island Gymnastics Club under coach Lisa Brougham. At a three-day event held in North Vancouver last weekend, hundreds of gymnasts from across the province showcased their skills. Eve placed 6th All Around in the Junior Olympics Level 7 Competition. Her most notable achievement was making it to the podium in 4th Place on Balance Beam. Eve, who is an 11 year old student at BICS, began as a competitive athlete in Gymnastics in 2010 with the Bowen Island Gymnastics Club and today she still trains under local Pilates Instructor and dancer, Gail Lotenberg, to refine her body alignment and on the performance of dance elements for the Beam and Floor events. Women gymnasts compete on four events: Vault, Uneven Bars, Balance Beam and Floor Exercise. Eve has been passionate about her sport from Day 1 and will now graduate to Junior Olympics Level 8. Congratulations, Eve!
