Yesterday was an absolute treat! Niss and Demet whisked me off to see Nisa’s studio—and wow, what a place. The walls sparkle with her athletic medals, and sitting proudly among them are her golden-soled boots, gifted by the Turkish government for being the fastest 400-metre runner in all of Turkey… at just 13 years old!
She once dreamed of the Olympics, but between her young age and the family costs (apparently all the funding was being funnelled into football—typical!), the timing just wasn’t right.Instead, she spent years working at the University of Bursa, training hard while studying physiology. And now?
She’s the proud owner of her own studio, opened just 18 months ago, and honestly—it’s as impressive as her story.
