00:00This is a hobby for me, and my parents always ask me what I'm doing, and I always tell them that it's just a hobby, it's going to get better and better.
00:26But after that, I wanted to do what I'm doing, and to turn my hobby into something that I want to do.
00:35And thank God, I always tell my parents to be patient, because I think it's going to go far.
00:43And thank God, it went far. Now we see the break, and the Olympics.
00:48It's something I never imagined.
00:57At first, I used to train only in the gym.
00:59There was no one who could tell me to train here or there.
01:05Then I met someone who used to train in the capital.
01:09And honestly, this capital helped me a lot, because I used to train on weekends, and I used to train at ease.
01:16Because I knew the streets at that time.
01:18There were people who laughed at me, and asked me what I was doing, and I told them that I was working out.
01:23And honestly, that time hurt me a lot.
01:26I wanted to train alone, so that no one would see me.
01:29And it's good that I was able to train in the capital at that time.
01:38When a man sees a woman working out, he might think that she's a little crazy.
01:43But when a man sees a woman working out, he might think that she's a little crazy.
01:52But I think that anything a man can do, a woman can do it too.
01:57As long as you train for it, and you have the will to do it, you can do it.
02:11It's been a long journey.
02:13It's been a long time, and I've been waiting for it.
02:16And I can say that this is what I achieved, thanks to a lot of people who came in my way.
02:22I can't say that it was one, or two, or three.
02:24There were a lot of people who helped me from the beginning, because I didn't know how to do anything.
02:29Even now, I can't say that I know how to do everything, but it's important.
02:34Well, at first, there were a lot of people who I was very grateful to, including my family, of course.
02:40At first, my father and my sister would tell me,
02:43I don't know what you're doing, you're not accepting it at first.
02:46But when you see a lot of competition, you travel to big competitions,
02:52you see a lot of people looking at you, you see you on TV,
02:56after a while, you want to be proud of something,
02:59or you say to people, my daughter is here, my daughter is here.
03:02And this helped me a lot, and motivated me a lot.
03:05My family and my sister supported me.
03:08So, there's nothing that you think is impossible.
03:16Honestly, I expected to win the African Championship.
03:20Especially, at that time, I was expecting a small problem.
03:24My father was sick.
03:26He was sick, and at that time he was in the hospital.
03:29And I was always telling him,
03:31Dad, I want to win the African Championship.
03:34And if I win it, I'll do a lot of hobbies,
03:37I'll go to the Olympics, and things like that.
03:40And he was always supporting me,
03:42his support from his parents helped me a lot.
03:44And at that time, I wasn't playing in the African Championship.
03:47My father looked at me, and told me,
03:49because I was in the hospital, and I was a bit sick,
03:52he told me, Fatima, if you want to win, win the African Championship.
03:56Honestly, now I feel proud,
03:59because I'm one of those who leave their father's side,
04:02which is a very beautiful thing.
04:16As we know, the break is the first time in the Olympic Games.
04:20And for me, it's a history,
04:24the first Moroccan Olympic Games.
04:28I was the first girl to participate in the Olympic Games,
04:32in the Break Dance,
04:34and it's something that is historical for me.
04:38And I have a lot of hope, God willing,
04:41that I will be on the podium.
