MOVE YOUR BODY — 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.

Let’s talk about Body Image

This week we have a guest blog , perfect for girls ,on body image from Anupa Roper also known as ‘Miss Sparrowlegs’. Anupa lives in Leicestershire, UK with her husband and two children (Maya 11 and Ayden 10). She allowed the label of ‘skinny’ to affect her feelings, self esteem and worth for a long time. Now she wants to empower the young by helping them to feel happy in their own skin. She would love for the generations that follow to know that their bodies are amazing and they are beautiful just the way they are.
