Gymnast Jade Barbosa's return to gymnastics has already been scheduled. Ricardo Pereira, the club's coach, has confirmed the athlete's participation in the Brazilian Artistic Gymnastics Championships, which will take place from August 21st to 23rd in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. According to Pereira, Jade will compete on two apparatuses: balance beam and parallel bars.

"Jade is super motivated and training really well. The workouts are helping her self-esteem, which was low."

Jade, who is still recovering from an injury to her right wrist, trains in two periods, morning (7:30 am to 11:30 am) and afternoon (19 pm to 20:30 pm).

The red-black team's last participation in a major competition was at the Beijing Olympics in August last year, where it finished 10th in the Individual All-Around, the best placing by a Brazilian in the Olympic Games.

After almost a year away from competition, Jade Barbosa has everything she needs to make a grand comeback and bring joy to Brazilians once again.
