What started as a game, with balls and ribbons given to her for her birthdays, became a vocation for rhythmic gymnast Natàlia Garcia (Barcelona, 1994). At thirteen, she was selected to represent Spain at the junior individual European Championships: "Dozens of girls show up and they pick two. That was when I said: 'Wow, this is no longer a joke'". She continued training at the High Performance Center (CAR) in Catalonia and went on to become a five-time Spanish champion.
