00:26Hello Mars Edeline.
00:28Good morning.
00:29Edeline, a lot of people were amazed by your victory.
00:34How did you start into the sport of para dancing?
00:38Before I started, Kwe Julius gave me the opportunity to join the dance sport.
00:47I continued until I was able to compete in Poland because of Kwe Julius.
00:54So how long have you been into para dancing?
00:57Five months. It's been five months since I started.
01:01Weren't you discouraged because you were paraplegic or had a hard time in the wheelchair?
01:07But you still got into dancing.
01:09What was your inspiration to continue and to improve?
01:13My inspiration was God because he gave me a second chance to live.
01:21My family helped me.
01:24My teammates, friends, and Filipinas.
01:28This is for the Filipinas.
01:54What would you say to your parents?
01:56Take good care of yourself and take care of your families.
02:03I'm going to dance.

02:12I'm going to dance.
02:14I'm going to dance.
02:16I'm going to dance.
02:48How do you train for para-dancing?
02:57I just need to train so that I can handle the movements, the lack of maturity in my dancing.
03:09Are there a lot of you doing this kind of dance here in the Philippines?
03:13Because this is new to para-dancing.
03:16We also have a lot of people in wheelchairs.
03:22What is the most important thing that you learned about yourself in this sport and in your victory?
03:29I learned that pressure has a reason for everything that happens in life.
03:38I am also very blessed because I learned to be strong.
03:46Edeline, you are an inspiration and thank you very much.
03:49I was able to talk to you this morning.
03:52Thank you, Papa.
03:53Alright, let's start with the trivia.
03:55Did you know that para-dancing was first practiced in Sweden in 1968 as a recreational activity for para-dancers?
04:03Not long after, it became popular and eventually reached more than 25 countries around the world.
