Many children put on their first pair of skates when they are only toddlers. If a child learns to stand confidently on the ice at the age of three, by the age of four, they will be gliding around the rink with abandon.

They will fall, but they will rise again. It’s also an essential lesson to learn.

Of course, figure skating is unique, and there may be a lot of pressure involved. However, much like dancing and athletics, it may be an excellent method to inculcate discipline and a love of hard work.

We’re not sure why her mother selected skating for her kid, but she’s clearly developed some major composure in the short time she’s been doing it.

A video of the 3-year-old was uploaded to YouTube in 2014, and it has been seen over 1.7 million times.

Valerie, the mother, mentions in the caption that her daughter has only been skating for 8 weeks.

And, to be honest, she’s already learned more than we did. She can start and stop, travel smoothly, and even perform a few charming movements.

She also has personality, as she grins and waves while out on the ice.

She seemed to be having a great time. She can even wriggle herself backward, which is something we’re constantly working on!

Brynn’s performance is paired with “The Muffin Man,” which made quite a few spectators laugh.

“I thought this was really cute!” “When it started, it put a big smile on my face, and when the muffin man song came on, I lost it; I died, lol,” one reviewer remarked.

Brynn took first place out of six skaters in her age division in the 2014 Magnolia Open Skating Competition!

And, while she didn’t realize it at the time when she skated towards Mom at the end of her performance, she appeared to be pleased with herself.

Years later, people were still rooting for her!
