SURYA Book (Bonaly)

Discover the life of Surya Bonaly, one of the most iconic women in the world of sport. Surya Bonaly is a figure skater whose name will forever mark the history of the sport. At 12, she joined the French figure skating team. Surya is a great performer and her unique style does not correspond to the standards of her time which values the figure of the graceful and white ice doll. Determined and hard-working, Surya Bonaly will prove to the world that only her talent counts. She invented her own somersault during the Nagano Olympic Games in 1998: the Bonaly. Throughout her career, Surya Bonaly will evolve with a philosophy in mind: what is the point of following the trail of others when you can take your own path? This book is a great opportunity to discover and tackle the following themes: - BOLD: dare to shake up the codes and take responsibility for your choices - INJUSTICE: learn to deal with this feeling - DETERMINATION: do not give up despite failures, defeats - SPORT: a school of life which gives pride of place to pleasure, play but also effort and competition.
