When it comes to gymnastics, Simone Biles needs no introduction. Defying gravity and donning a leotard with absolute finesse is second nature to her. Nonetheless, her younger sister, Adria Biles, also had a short stint in gymnastics before she chose a different career path. Now, the Olympian is the only gymnast in the family. However, it looks like another member of the Biles clan is all set to make a presence on the mat.

Recently, Biles’ six-month-old adorable niece Ronni Biles visited her aunt’s beloved gymnastics arena. As Ronni was playing on the beam, her mother Sammi Biles suggested that gymnastics might be a viable career choice for the toddler.
