Delphi Student Wins Top Honors at Moscow Meet

(Westwood, MA) – Erica Wu (age 9) of Canton has a long list of accomplishments on her rhythmic gymnastics resume. In addition to being the 2008 National Champion in Level 4, Erica has been undefeated this year as a level 5 rhythmic gymnast, placing 1st at the Mass State Meet, Connecticut Rhythmic Invitational, Coaches Cup, Aviator Meet, Rhythmic Stars Invitational and most recently at the International meet The Boston Cup. Erica is blessed with extreme flexibility and grace and this precocious talent has not gone unnoticed by the international rhythmic gymnastics community. By way of a very special invitation by the Russian Federation, Erica recently traveled to Moscow, Russia with her coach, Varduhi Nahapetyan to compete in the prestigious “Ruby Stars” International Rhythmic Invitational Cup which was held on April 17-19, 2009.

This international meet included more than 150 of the most talented young rhythmic gymnasts representing numerous different countries. Erica was not intimidated by the competition and she competed impressively taking 3rd place for the floor and finishing 4th all around. Her beautiful expressive performances were noticed by the judges and she was awarded the coveted title of “Miss Grace”- an honorary prize of the championship.

States Erica, “I was very excited to compete in Moscow! All of the best rhythmic girls come from this country so I was a bit nervous. It was fun to meet girls from many different countries.”

Erica’s next goals are to compete well at the Regional meet and to defend her National (now as a level 5) title in May. Erica practices at the New England Sports Academy (NESA) and is coached by Varudhi Nahapetyan. Varduhi is a 3 time National Champion rhythmic gymnast from Armenia. She started NESA’s rhythmic gymnastics program 6 years ago and has built the program into one of the most successful programs in the country. In addition to Erica, Varduhi has also qualified numerous girls to Nationals and has produced 2 other National Champions in her short time in the USA.
