BODY CONFIDENCE — We are Girls in Sport blog

In this week’s blog, we have a special interview with twin sisters, Aly Calvo and Andrea Kulberg, the co-founders of Legacy Cheer and Dance. Andrea is legally blind. Aly is fully sighted. They both spend their lives empowering visionary leadership and joyful abundance for parents, coaches, and athletes through youth sports. Through the power of cheer and dance, they aim to empower young women with the skills they need early in life, we are equipping them to realise their potential and create a world where girls lead for life.

Supporting girls to develop a Positive Body Image

We know that the adolescent years can be difficult, particularly for girls. A healthy body image is an important part of a growing girl's self-esteem. Body image is so important as it can affect how girls feel about themselves, so in this blog, we explore how we can talk to our girls about their bodies and steer them in the direction of body positivity.

Mental Health Awareness Week - why it matters for girls

It’s Mental Health Awareness week and here at We are Girls in Sport, we wanted to remind you of the importance of exercise and mental health, for all you girls and young women in particular. We know that people bang on about it all the time (!), but we want you to achieve your potential and be the best version of yourself that you can be! Exercise is critical to your well-being, both physical and mental.
