Debrecen – Beauty, acrobatics, strength. Zsófi Székely has already proved on earth, on a pole and in a team what it is like when talent goes hand in hand with perseverance.
Zsófia Székely’s sports career began as it did for many: swimming. For a while, he diligently blamed the lengths, but it was with him, as with others, that he began to get bored with the monotony and winked at other sports.

Just not the gym, his mother, who had been exercising before, told him at the time. But life has proven again, blood does not become water. Because the Kazinczy school had a fitness room where you could work out – and he did the thing for the little girl.
It’s okay – the mother’s heart has eased – the gymnastics can come in parallel with swimming. But there was more and more sports without water and less and less water, and in the end Zsófiálló came up with the idea: he just wants to exercise.
The girl started to work more and more intensively with the branch of fitness ground gymnastics, which is moving on the borderline of the show dance, so she had to go to acrobatics trainings as well. And the results started to come, because Zsófi proved to be very talented. The girl competing in the colors of Diamond Fitness SE won, for example, the Super Fitness Show in Budaörs in 2015 and the INBA Fitness Kid Acrobatics Cup in 2019 in Debrecen. But in the same year, he won third place in the world championship in Budapest and was able to triumph in the fitness rhythm category in international competitions.
“It’s interesting that I had the best results when I raced with an injured ankle throughout the season,” Zsófi recalls.
The implementation of the many acrobatic elements did not go unnoticed. Partly because of this, he started tasting a new sport, pole dancing. He says they didn’t really come in for him in the first few hours, in 2018 it still seemed to remain a hobby for him because the rotating rod initially bothered him. But the coaches saw the possibilities in it, they encouraged it. And perseverance paid off – he was immediately runned up in the first race, confirming that he was on the right track.
Today, this is the real passion for Zsófi, who has meanwhile become a student of the Medgyessy grammar school. But the crown epidemic was caused by the closure, which in the meantime returned to the aspirations of Zárofia. But he was not carved out of such wood.
“After it was possible to go to the gym with a competition license, I got a key and I trained and trained myself for a year with the help of videos,” said Zsófi, who sometimes showed me where he was at online competitions.
And when it was possible to compete really, he won the very third place in the junior category at the Poleart Italy 2021 world competition held in Italy in November, now as an athlete in the Dance of Debrecen.
The high school girl now teaches sports, she also took part in a competition with her group of children, and she returned home with three gold and two silver medals from the Derecske qualifier.
However, for Zsófi it was still not enough of the sport. To inspire his mother, he joined the DEAC Cheerleaders team, where he was, of course, recruited. Thus, it became part of the great success, as the girls qualified for the European Championship in December with their second place finish in the Hungarian championship, which will be in Athens in the first days of July.
Now, Zsófi is making new clothes and choreographies, whose career has been supported since the age of 14 by Péter Szabó, the managing director of FAG Magyarország Ipari Kft., Who is also the chairman of DVSC Futball Zrt. As for further education, the University of Debrecen aims to deal with sports ethics and sports rehabilitation.
And if you are preparing for the recordings with the same determination as for the competitions of your sports career, there can be no doubt about the result …
