Julia Soares speaks for the first time as a Pinheiros athlete: “I want to evolve”


Julia Soares was presented to Esporte Club Pinheiros this Friday (24) and plans the evolution in the club, after leaving Curitiba




Julia Soares was presented as an athlete of ESporte Club Pinheiros this Friday (24), in a press conference held at the Olympic gymnastics gym and commented on the departure of Curitiba and the new challenges in one of the main Olympic clubs in Brazil. In addition to Julia, ECP techniques also reached ECP, Carol Molinari and Ilyashenko.

I owe everything to Curitiba and Cegin, but it came at a time in your life that you need to evolve, escape comfort and seek new challenges. I have always wanted to defend a great club with the history that Pinheiros has. A club that has an idol like Arthur Nory, its Olympic history. All this motivated me to change. It’s a challenge, but I want to evolve here Julia Soares said at the press conference.

Julia Soares’ first idol was her older sister, Giovanna, who was already a gymnast and inspired the Olympic medalist to enter the sport at the age of four. At the age of 19, Julia was inspired by Daiane Dos Santos to create the Soares element in the post – approved by Fig – and was encouraged by her two techniques, Carol and Iyna. Fellow selection, Rebeca Andrade is another inspiration for Curitibana.

The first was my sister Giovanna. It was the first inspiration because I was four years old, eight and he was already doing gymnastics. Then I accompanied the queen of the land who was Daiane Dos Santos. She has been a daily inspiration for me. Now Rebecca Andrade, my teammate. This is all a dream I’m realizing at 19 years old. Having experienced the Paris Olympic village to win a medal. My life has transformed. When I returned from Paris, we went to the mall in Curitiba. I could hardly prepare my meal of so many people recognizing me and I wanted an autograph or photo. And now I want much more from Pinheiros – also told in the press conference.

Julia Soares is in Sao Paulo (SP) until this Sunday (26th) and then travels to Rio de Janeiro, where she will do a training phase and also participate in a seminar. The gymnast was present at EC Pinheiros between the end of February and the beginning of March.
