When you picture a professional ballerina, you might think about their grace and elegance. Or, maybe you think about their hard work and preparation that goes into perfecting a performance. TJ Oshie’s daughter (and tiny icon) Leni Oshie might not be a professional ballerina yet, but you can absolutely tell she is well on her way.

How can I tell she’s on her way to becoming a star? Easy. As someone that also took ballet (in college FYI), I know the key traits that one must possess to make it to the top. Concentration, a flair for the dramatic arm move, a positive attitude, and the willingness to pick yourself back up when you fall down. Clearly, these are no problem for Leni.

This is exactly the kind of content I need to chuckle at on a Monday. Thank you, Lauren Oshie. Your family is a gift.
