During a particularly challenging routine, Aaliyah noticed one of her teammates struggling to keep up. Remembering her own struggles when she first started, Aaliyah offered to help her teammate after class. This small act of kindness led to a strong friendship and taught Aaliyah that winning isn't always about being in the spotlight; it's also about lifting others up along the way.
