“I like gymnastics because I get to do crazy tricks that no one else can do.” – Prisais Townsend
There are massive amounts of people who love going to the gym and breaking a sweat. But doing so at the age of 7 years is something unusual. Despite not being old enough to attend kindergarten, Prisais Brooklyn Townsend became a preschool beast at the gym. She is already a master at weight-lifting, pull-ups, and gymnastics.
Prisais’s father, James Townsend, noticed her when she started following along with his workouts. James is a former NFL player turned personal trainer. When James saw her daughter taking an interest, he started giving some light training to Prisais. He knew Prisais was different from other kids just a few months after she was born. “She started crawling at three months and was walking at seven months.
I knew that was unheard of,” says James. When Prisais was ten months old, her father began to bring her to the gym while training regularly. However, what made James notice was his daughter’s precocious talent for lifting weights. Before her first birthday, Prisais was already itching to get swole. By 14 months, she was able to jump onto a plate that was nearly two-feet off the ground.
James wanted to explore her athletic abilities. The seven-year-old workout wunderkind has a growing social following. Prisais’s father, James, decided to show off her skills on his personal Instagram page to appreciate her talents. Gradually, the videos of her were getting more and more attention from people all over the world. So, he eventually created an account just for her daughter.
James Townsend has proven to be a beneficial coach for his daughter. As a result of his training, Prisais is continually improving and picking up new skills at a remarkable rate. The Gcpawards has recognized her as one of the Top 100 child prodigies of the world.
The Global Child Prodigy Awards is the first and only organization globally to recognize talents from various countries and backgrounds. The list includes the name of children having extreme competency in their field of interest, such as painting, modeling, writing, entrepreneurship, martial art, music, social work, etc.
Prisais Townsend received the Global Child Prodigy award in January 2020 for her fitness. She was delighted to receive the award as it was one of her most significant achievements. If you know someone close to you who deserves to be on the top 100 Child Prodigies list, make sure to click here.
Prisais Townsend also has her eyes set on a gymnastics career, and she’s already achieved Level Two and outranks all the kids in her group. As long as Prisais keeps improving at such an incredible rate, she will be able to do things no one her age should be able to do for a long time.
Fortunately, she has a father that not only roots for her, but understands how to help her grow in a safe and fun way.
