00:27back from my goal Trip opened by Jammu Kashmir how do you get a connection with the Jammu Kashmir
00:45where I started gymnastics at the Gujirat I think when I came about three or three years ago
00:53When I was in my town, I used to play games, which my father taught me there.
01:03So I went back to him.
01:05As much as I remember and told me, when I was at 3, I started going to sports.
01:14I started going to sports, which I remember.
01:17I felt a good passion for me.
01:22It became my passion for me.
01:28When did you start gymnastics formally?
01:33How many years did you play gymnastics?
01:36How did you come to coaching?
01:37I remember that when I was 7 years old, there was a straight tournament in the city.
01:46That was my first competition.
01:48We were talking about mini-games.
01:51I think we also talk about sub-junior and mini.
01:54That was my first competition.
01:56Then my father, myself and my coach, Sunji Singh Walia,
02:01they thought that I can do gymnastics.
02:04I need to do it.
02:05I need to do it.
02:06I need to do it.
02:07That's how my journey started as a gymnast.
02:11Seriously.
02:13But I wasn't serious.
02:14I felt good to do it.
02:16I didn't want to become a champion or do it.
02:18We did it.
02:20We did it.
02:20We did it.
02:21We did it.
02:22We did it.
02:24We did it.
02:24We did it.
02:25We did it.
02:28He was not a coach.
02:29But he was a good trainer and coach.
02:34He kept doing it.
02:37He kept doing it.
02:38He kept doing it.
02:39So, today, I have to finish this task.
02:42And I had a lot of senior girls and boys who taught me to teach my dad.
02:47So, he kept doing it.
02:49He kept doing it.
02:49He kept doing it.
02:51That's how my journey started as a gymnast.
02:54And after that, I never stopped.
02:58I became a coach.
03:00After that, I had a injury.
03:03So, I had to play more.
03:05But at that time, there were limitations.
03:06There were no medical treatments or exposure.
03:10Then, I had to stop as a gymnast.
03:13But, there was no other thing.
03:16There was no other thing.
03:17There was no interest in any other thing.
03:19Then, my coach said, I would have to be a coach.
03:23I would never thought I would be a coach.
03:25Yes.
03:26It was in my mind that I should have my own academy.
03:28Which is in my mind.
03:30That it is my dream.
03:31That I should have my own academy.
03:34That it was my dream.
03:35That it was my dream.
03:42I had joined there as a coach.
03:44Then, I went to Jumbo Kashmir because I had a married here.
03:48And here, gymnastics was already in a good place.
03:52Especially, rhythmic gymnastics events and aerobics.
03:54Already, there were national medalists here.
03:58So, it started.
04:00First posting.
04:01In Jumbo Kashmir, who was your husband?
04:06Who was your husband?
04:07And how did you get married?
04:10How did you get married?
04:12My husband is Mr. Espy Singh.
04:16He was a gymnastic coach.
04:19Now, he is retired.
04:20He retired as a manager of JNK Sports Council.
04:23Where I am now.
04:25He was in this department.
04:28He was a coach of the national team.
04:31He was a very good coach.
04:35He is a good coach.
04:40So, our discussion was about gymnastics.
04:44We have joined gymnastics and joined.
04:47So, gymnastics was our common interest.
04:52I also felt that gymnastics is not something I did not.
04:56I did not.
04:57So, our gymnastics is our best.
04:59How many years did you get married in Jumbo?
05:04In 1996, I was married in Haryana.
05:09In 1998, I was posted here.
05:12It was my first posting in Shrinagar.
05:15I came in 1998.
05:17So, as a gymnast and as a coach, you have received many achievements.
05:25How many awards have you received?
05:34India and Bharat's highest award for sports?
05:38That is Arjuna Award.
05:40That was the award for sports.
05:42And the award for Gujarat's award for sports.
05:46What year did you get the award for sports?
05:49In 1989.
05:49Yes.
05:50In 1989.
05:52And Sadaar Patel Award from Gujarat government.
05:56Haryana's award is the award for sports.
05:58And the award for sports.
06:02This award for state award.
06:04And the award for state award.
06:05And the award for state award.
06:06And the award for Lehman's books of record.
06:09And the award for books of record.
06:10I think it is two times.
06:11and 10 Outstanding Young Indians
06:14is an award
06:17which I have received.
06:19There are a few.
06:21After that, when you came to the coaching
06:23in Jammu Kashmir,
06:25how difficult it was to establish
06:29coaching here.
06:30It was established here,
06:33but when you came,
06:34how many girls
06:35give more awareness
06:39and how was this journey?
06:44It was tough.
06:46Tough for me. Tough for the gymnast.
06:49Because I had to come from the moment
06:50and the training I had done
06:53and the discipline
06:55and the background I had.
06:57I didn't get here.
06:59Of course, there were already
07:01national medalist players in rhythmic gymnastics
07:03and artistic players.
07:06But
07:07the system is different.
07:10There is a casual system.
07:12Even now, I didn't have a background.
07:15At the beginning, I had a lot of problems.
07:18I had a lot of difficulties.
07:19I had a sports school
07:21and a disciplined background.
07:23My coach was very strict.
07:29My father was very strict regarding the discipline.
07:31Regarding the timings.
07:32Regarding the...
07:34Regarding the...
07:35What do you say?
07:35To give one another?
07:36This is a very important thing.
07:39For me, it is a very important thing.
07:40In India team training.
07:43They are very disciplined.
07:44In India team training.
07:44There was no casual attitude.
07:48People are very easy.
07:50They are very easy.
07:51They don't move aside.
07:54These things were all I had.
07:56So, slowly they had some adjustments.
07:58Players had some adjustments.
08:00I adjusted them with them.
08:01That's how journey started as a coach in Jammu and Kashmir.
08:04After that, there were many achievements in Jammu and Kashmir.
08:09There were many achievements in Jammu and Kashmir.
08:13So, how many students did you get from India to Jammu and Kashmir?
08:19Do you tell us about that?
08:23For that, I will give them the first teachers.
08:29I will give them.
08:31I can't take that credit.
08:34It's not like that.
08:35Because I have to do gymnastics.
08:37So, I will do it.
08:39And my husband told me that we have to do gymnastics.
08:42So, we say that we have to do our own training.
08:45That's it.
08:46The rest of the establishment,
08:48you can understand that the new gymnastics is put in Jammu and Kashmir.
08:53We have to do it.
08:54We are just doing it.
08:57We are trying to improve it.
09:00We are trying to improve it.
09:03The rest of the gymnasium.
09:05We have to do it.
09:06They are trying to improve it.
09:09They are trying to improve it.
09:09The kids are trying to improve gymnastics.
09:13So, the credit goes to the gymnast as well as their parents.
09:16As well as if you talk about the gymnasium, the greats, the greats.
09:20If you just need to do it.
09:20So, the government also has support.
09:23So, we have to do it.
09:24So, this is cool and it's a team work.
09:25And, if we can talk about husband-wife,
09:27we enjoy the training.
09:32How much gymnastics has been developed in Kashmir, especially in Kashmir Valley?
09:41How has been adopted in Kashmir in Kashmir?
09:49I think in the 80s and 90s, there were very good players in the 80s and 90s.
09:58There were very good players.
09:59There were national participation.
10:02First, there were state camps.
10:04There were also summer camps.
10:06There were players here too.
10:07Then there was something bad.
10:09In gymnastics, all the activities were stopped there.
10:15That was a downfall.
10:16Now we are reviving it.
10:20The gap of 10 or 12 came from a very big gap.
10:24Now, it's very difficult to revive it.
10:27It wasn't before.
10:28People were aware.
10:29People were aware of the whole world.
10:33Now there are restrictions.
10:35We are facing a problem.
10:37We are facing some of the challenges of the community.
10:41We have to keep the government's efforts.
10:45It was also in Kashmir.
10:45My first appointment in the 98s was Kashmir.
10:49I was there for three years.
10:51I really enjoyed it.
10:53I always say that Kashmir,
10:55as they say,
10:56anthropologically and geographically,
10:59they are given very good and good weather.
11:01So, if the government thinks that it is serious, it can be very good in Kashmir, and we conducted, I
11:11mean, the council had conducted one national coaching camp, and a coach was called from Azerbaijan, so it was a
11:17national coaching camp, and it was also gymnastics.
11:19And that awareness, and that daring, is a little bit difficult.
11:25What difficulties do you have in Kashmir, mostly, if you have children, especially if you have to take gymnastics?
11:33Look, there is the mindset of sports around the country, especially in Kashmir, sports is not a priority.
11:44Gymnastics, not any, yes, football is very popular, cricket is very popular.
11:49These are the two games that you know in Kashmir, and people know about it.
11:53But to tell gymnastics, this is gymnastics, it is very difficult.
11:59And what did we start?
12:01And our leotard or our kit is a little bit different.
12:07So, to show them too.
12:11And after seeing them, 50-25 children.
12:15So, that we have seen.
12:17I myself have faced that.
12:19When they show them that this is a difficult game,
12:22they have to go to the air, they have to do it, they have to do it, they have to
12:25do it, they have to do it.
12:26So, when they start the camp, they have to do it.
12:29Because they also need an exposure.
12:31They only study and study.
12:33Now, parents also understand in Kashmir, that we have to do sports.
12:37They are not getting their direction.
12:39To be very honest, in Kashmir, people are not getting that direction,
12:42We are going to put it in a game, how much we are going to put it.
12:45Or, we need to get some pulls.
12:47All these things come first.
12:49But when sports are such things, you can't see any benefits.
12:52It is not always good.
12:54But to get some benefits, it means you cannot.
13:00It's a very long, long process event, so to keep their interest, their passion, their dedication
13:11is very low.
13:14How many of your students have represented India in India?
13:19Do you know something about that?
13:22There are a lot, there will not be much, but I think there will be 30-40 international players,
13:33international medalists, world championships, Asian championships, other international world cups.
13:42There is a lot of good scores.
13:44Recently, in the National Games, we were a gymnast champion, it was a history for JNK.
13:51And our team, you understand, remains in the rankings, in the first or second position.
13:57So, the kids are doing good here.
14:00And you can understand that there will be a lot of players now.
14:06There are 600-700 medals in the past few years.
14:13State awardees are our 10-1.
14:16Share the Kashmir Awardees, some of them are 25-30.
14:19There are a lot of people from JNK, JNK, JNK, JNK, Academy and International.
14:25How do you maintain a balance in your personal life and professional life?
14:31How much is it difficult to balance?
14:34It is difficult.
14:36If I say the truth, it is very difficult.
14:39Because I am a coach, I give a lot of time to other players.
14:45I do not give a lot of time to the family.
14:47If I go to the house, we think about what to do and how to do it.
14:50It is difficult.
14:51The players always say that it is a shadow.
14:56It is a shadow.
14:57Then, he stays in our mind.
14:58And in our house, I am not alone.
15:00My husband is also here.
15:01And both of them have a dedication in gymnastics.
15:03Both of them are common in gymnastics.
15:05So, when we go to the house, we talk about that.
15:07So, that is the fact that I
15:12do not have anyone as a highfire.
15:24is also on the side of my husband, so I don't have a social life. I like staying here.
15:31But yes, I don't give my children's time. It's a little regret.
15:39What will your message on Women's Day for all of you and all of those students,
15:45female students, who want to come to any sport?
15:53I tell every mother or girl, especially the girls,
15:59that enjoy your life.
16:02And I will tell my mother that you have your children,
16:06whose interest is not only in sports.
16:09If they are interested in some art, dance or activities,
16:13they should support.
16:14You should trust your children.
16:16Don't stand behind them.
16:18Don't go.
16:19Don't go.
16:20Don't go.
16:20When you mistake, you can do it.
16:23And I always say that you get one life.
16:26You should enjoy your life with a lot of love.
16:33And what happens when you do sports,
16:36you become strong or young people,
16:39they become mentally strong.
16:40And they enjoy life.
16:43So I will tell you,
16:44every mother and woman, enjoy your children.
16:49You should do sports.
16:50You should do sports.
16:51Thank you, ma'am.
