Sports and the Filipino

Why is ballet and basketball encouraged in the schools? You need to be tall to excel and make a name for yourself in these sports. There are many sports in where we have at least a competitive advantage.

There are also sports in which the Filipino has an innate advantage, like gymnastics.

Actually, she wasn't perfect. But she showed everyone how much fun it was to be a gymnast. She was just a champ, as well.

Nadia Comaneci said that Filipinos had an inborn advantage in the sport: their small frames. And, unlike ballet, you don't need to be tall.
