It’s literally ~impossible~ to capture the full depth and breadth of grit AND joy that is the Level Up Games each year.
But each year for the last 3 years I’ve gotten the chance to try, camera in hand, making my way around the floating floor to each moment. And each image captured proves to me time and time again that these people and this place are truly unlike any other. 💙
And attempting to choose a few images to share a peek into the day?… Also impossible 🙃, but at least here is a tiny glimpse at just how meaningful and transformative and impressive and fun it all is.
To every athlete who competed: wow, you are incredible and inspire us all. I was brought to tears SO many times behind the camera at you pushing through and crushing it!
To every counter & cheerleader & family member/friend/puppy😍: you really showed up this year! And it means so much and makes the day just that much more special!
To every trainer & staff member: thank you for making this possible for us all at the Games and *every* day.
Endlessly thankful! What an honor it is to be a tiny part of such a special place and community! Happy 3rd birthday, ! And a giant two claps for you all!👏🏻👏🏻
