About
When Linda was a little child she wanted to be an ice princess but started to practice gymnastics, and she still does but mostly for fun.
Since she was four she has played lots of theatre because her mother is the owner to a theatre club.
At 14 years old Linda she got an ultimate Frisbee in her hand and started to play. At a tournament she got up her eyes for freestyle. With lip-gloss she tried to get the disc to spin. With the love to the audience, with the crazy moves and the acting skills she soon understood that it was the sport for her.
