At 15, Visakhapatnam girl Greeshma Dontara is on one cloud nine, having bagged a gold and two silver at the recently-concluded 19th edition of the Asian Roller-Skating Championship held in Beidaihe, China.
It has been just a day since she returned and she is already aiming for her next event. “This is a big boost for me and a dream-come-true. I have been skating since I was four years old and it has become second nature to me,” says a beaming Greeshma, who received a rousing welcome when she returned from China.
Greeshma owes her success to her coaches P Satyanarayana and Chitti Babu. “They have been instrumental in my journey to reach here and have relentlessly worked on my techniques and postures to compete at the international level,” says the class X student of Visakha Valley School.
