Synopsis: Based on the true life story of California gymnast Ariana Berlin. As she zoned in on her Olympic goals, 14 year old Ariana Berlin's life took a sharp turn when she was involved in a debilitating car accident. Gaining her confidence and movement back through learning hip hop dance, she unexpectedly found herself called back to the gymnastics world thanks to world renowned UCLA Coach Valorie Kondos Field. With Val's help, Ariana was eventually able to secure a spot on the UCLA gymnastics team and win an NCAA championship, a lifelong goal that she had always dreamed of. This is a wonderfully inspiring story of persistence, confidence, and the heart and courage to make a somewhat impossible comeback in life.

I'd like to know, what do I

have to do to become a walk on

at UCLA?

You want to walk onto my team?

Yeah.

You realize I get paid to

produce the most elite athletes

in the country.

I've always been a winner

and I'm ready to win again.

Well I'm sure you are. But

that's not enough. Please don't

waste my time.

Sorry to have bothered you.

Ariana, if you're going to

come back to gymnastics, you

need to come back like

you really mean it.

Ma'am, I'm willing to do

anything and everything to be a

part of this team.

Look, I've seen your work

ethic. I know it's good. But can

you give me one

hundred percent commitment?

Absolutely. A hundred

percent. A hundred and ten

percent.

I'll need to see you do a demo.

Sure, yeah.

Right now?

Oh, sorry, did you

mean another time?

No, if you're

ready, then let's do it.

This is game day right here Get

your game face on It's time

To shine

So here we go Deep breath and don't

look down Time to make a move

So here we go

Here we go

The level of difficulty

isn't high enough.

So here we go Deep breath and don't

look down Time to make a move

So here we go

Here we go

Ariana, I told you not to

waste my time. And you didn't.

Welcome to UCLA. You're sweaty.

Thank you, thank you ma'am.

Thank you so much.

Ariana, don't call me ma'am,

sounds old. The other girls call

me Miss Val.

Ok ma'am-I mean Miss Val.

She's good. She's not great.

It'll be good to have a

dancer on the team. The other

girls can learn from her. But

she'll never compete.

Gymnastics all day, hip hop

at night. You sure you're not

pushing yourself too hard?

Heck, when I was her age I

used to play football, baseball

and basketball.

Not all in one day.

I'll be fine Mom.

Just take it easy young lady.

We don't want to have to put you

back together again.

I'll try to pace myself.

Ohhh.

Sure you will.

Yeah.

Ariana, are you okay?

I'm fine.

Do you want help?

No.

Why are you so mad at me?

I never said I was mad at you.

Not in so many words. Mainly 'cause

you don't say anything to me anymore.

Why do you keep

shutting me out? Are you okay?

Stop asking me that!

Look, I didn't cause your

accident. What was I supposed to

do, stop living my life?

I don't want to talk about it.

Look, I wish you were at

the games too. But it is not my

fault.

She's hit a plateau. It's one

amateur mistake after another.

Can you talk to her?

Help her find her focus.

Why me?

Because she'll listen to you.

I think it coming from me it's

more pressure.

Well Miss Val, Isla and

I don't really talk much.

I thought you two were friends?

We kinda fell out.

Well fall back in, Ariana.

This is a gymnastics team and

your teammate needs your help.

Isla! Wait! Where are you going?

Just to the bus stop. My dad

left without me so...

Why?

He said he can't even

look at me right now.

Do you want to talk about it?

Val set you up for this, didn't

she? I bet you didn't want to.

Isla, it was always my dream

to go to the Olympics and win a

medal and then go to UCLA

and have lots of fun. But that

didn't happen, instead you got

it all. And I guess it's just

hard for me to watch

from the sidelines.

Really?

Yeah, really.

I thought you were mad at me.

Well I guess I was a bit mad

about the whole Nate

thing, but I'm over it.

I'm so sorry about that. I

should have told you the truth

but it's over and

it didn't work out.

It's okay. And I'll

still always know that you peed

yourself on that bus.

Well, just so you know, the

Olympics weren't all that great.

Don't believe the hype.

Are you serious?

No! They were amazing and you

needed to be there. It was so

awful that you weren't. I

missed you the whole time.

I bet you did? Especially

when you blew that dismount.

Well at least I was there

and not slacking off in some

hospital room.

Well at least I

got free pudding!

Well, you're getting your

revenge now. I peaked and it's

been downhill ever since.

You can break out of it.

Oh I would love to just

forget about gymnastics for a

little while.

What?

Hey. I haven't seen or heard

from you in weeks. I was about

to bust down your door.

I was sick.

There's no time to be sick.

Auditions are twelve days away.

Check what we've got it on.

They don't know you're back

on the gymnastics team, do they?

I just haven't

figured out how to tell them.

Or have you not

figured out what you want?

I miss hating you

for knowing me so well.

Hi.

Chill cheese fries?

No, no. I can't.

Sure you can.

No seriously. My

coach will kill me.

I, I don't see any

coaches around here.

Okay but, just,

just a little bit.

Okay just a-

Just a small-

Just a small-That's pretty

big but yeah go for it. It's

good, just, just

try it. Just try it.

Okay. Oh that's good.

See, this is what I do. I

bring joy to the people. Want

another one?

Just one more.

Okay.

Just one.

I'm going to take one too.

Really good.

Oh okay. Alright.

So you feel like

putting on a show?

I don't know.

We just got here.

Guys, let's dance. Come on.

I can't believe we've

not met yet Now talk to me

I'm tired of seeking blindly

I'm tired of hiding in plain

Sight

Come set me free

One, two three this party

goes all night One last chance

Before we say goodbye I need to know

your name Boy, It's such a shame

Take my hands, throw'em up in the

sky I hope your heart beats faster

When it's close to mine

Before we run out of time

We'll dance all night

Go Isla!

Rest time is as important as

training time. You have got to

give this up.

I know you're upset, but

that's what got me back into

gymnastics.

It got you moving again, it

got you motivated. But look at

you, you're tired and

you're burning out.

I don't know if you noticed,

but Isla spent one night around

that stuff and

she's back on track.

Ariana you've got to start

thinking about what's important

to you. And start making the

right choices. You've gotta feel

it in here. This is where it

matters the most. So what's it

gonna be? What family are you

gonna choose? Are you gonna

choose the one that will put

you on the road to becoming a

champion? Or are you gonna

choose the one that could lead

you to being a back up

dancer in some rap video?

It's not fair.

You focus on one or you

fail at both. It's that simple.

Hey.

Hey.

What's up?

Nothing. Just starting to

realize my limitations I guess.

I don't think you know the

meaning of limitations. They

literally could not stop you

unless they hit you with a car.

Thanks.

I think you're

really cool, Ariana.

You're pretty cool yourself.

Let's go warm up. So I heard

you really brought it at

the dance jam the other day.

Well I'm paying for it today.

Is there anything I can do to

take your mind off of it?

You just keep massaging,

Mr. That's what I'm good at.

I can't do this. There's

something I need to tell you.

Hey it's the dancing queen.

Did you see the video we posted

last night?

Yeah, I did. And
