Anak ni Sylvia Sanchez na si Gela Atayde 2 years old pa lang sumasayaw na ng ‘Otso Otso’, naimpluwensiyahan ni Arjo
KNOWS n’yo ba na 2 years old pa lang ay nagsasayaw na ang anak nina Sylvia Sanchez at Art Atayde na si Gela Atayde?
Ayon sa baguhang Kapamilya actress-dancer, ikinukuwento sa kanya ng kanyang parents, pati na ng mga kapatid niyang sina Congressman Arjo at Ria Atayde na super dance raw siya talaga kapag naririnig ang “Otso Otso” ni Bayani Agbayani.
At fast forward ngayong 2023, makalipas ang halos dalawang dekada, lalaban na si Gela kasama ang iba pang miyembro ng grupo nilang Legit Status sa international competition next month para sa World Hip-Hop Dance Championship sa Arizona.

“When I was a kid I used to dance a lot. I heard stories from when I was two, I would already dance to ‘Otso Otso.’ I feel like ever since I was a kid I was drawn to music and with that came dance,” pagbabalik-alaala ng anak ni Ibyang sa panayam ng Push.
Inamin din ng dalaga na ang kanyang Kuya Arjo ang nakaimpluwensiya sa kanya para maadik sa pagsasayaw na naging member din ng kanilang grupong Legit Status.
“It was really kuya Arjo who inspired me. He really didn’t even have to encourage me, I just watched him before because he used to compete also.
Baka Bet Mo: Sylvia babalik sa pag-arte sa 2023, kakaririn muna ang pagiging producer; bakit nga ba present sa Cannes 2022?
“I guess just watching him and when I see people dance I felt like ‘okay I wanna dance also.’ I saw kuya and the support of the dance community, I felt like ever since then I watched it, it’s really something I wanted to do,” pagbabahagi pa ni Gela.

At tungkol naman sa paglaban nila sa mga International dance competition, “I guess it’s an honor, it’s very pressuring but then I feel like more than anything, I take pride in being a Filipino dancer.
“This competition, Filipinos always win or always place. It’s such a big deal for me now,” aniya pa.
Talagang kinakarir na nila ngayon ang kanilang training na tumatagal ng apat na oras bawat araw (five times a week), “It’s really the championship. We have no other option but to win.
“That’s what we keep telling each other na ‘hindi, kailangan (champions) hindi lang podium (finish) we have to win’ we’re that eager to win,” ang pahayag pa ni Gela.
