KIYG 2025: Standing Upside-down From Childhood Brings Pre-teen Aavya Anan Into Spotlight
Khelo India Youth Games: Aavya Anan of Bihar, the youngest gymnast at the Khelo India Youth Games 2025, Bihar, decided to turn things, quite literally, upside down. Aavya's journey in gymnastics began with this peculiar habit: the little girl loved standing on her head, legs in the air, flipping and arching with joy in her living room.
It is interesting to hear the youngest Khelo India gymnast speak about finding her calling. “I didn’t know Gymnastics is a sport,” Aavya giggles. “I just liked staying upside down. My parents saw me doing arches and flips while I used to watch dance shows on television at home, and decided to introduce me to Gymnastics”
Aavya’s name means the first rays of the sun, and her mother believes that her daughter will shine on the Indian gymnastics firmament someday. A class 4 student, she has been training for just 18 months at the Rising Youth Gymnastics Academy in Patna, under the watchful eyes of coach Roshan Yadav. She won two gold medals and a silver medal in the 2025 State Championships.
