At work last Friday I got the chance to meet Alicia Sacramone, thanks to Nicole. Nicole is the team director at our gym and happen to run into her at a meet not too long ago. Nicole has a choreography
company called Precision Choreography, she finds well known dancers and gymnasts to go across the country to choreograph routines for her company. She was able to hire Alicia as one of her choreographers!!! Amazing hu? I am so lucky to be apart of this industry!!
Anyway, Nicole asked Alicia to come into our gym to help out with our girls. Nicole kept it a secret from our gymnast just to see what they would do! So Alicia comes waltzing into the gym and it took the girls a good 20 minutes to realize who was helping them out! It was really funny to watch the girl's eyes bulging out of their heads. The girls
worked harder and they were much more tighter in practice, more than I have EVER seen them!
I have to say after meeting Shawn Johnson the other month Alicia Sacramone is WAY cooler, and is much more personable. I introduced myself and I stuck out my hand, but then SHE gave me a hug! Everyone wanted to take a picture with her but she was running late so I was one of the only ones to sneak a picture!
This is my favorite video of her at the 2007 Visa Championships, only because I was there in the stands! :)
