Michelle Heimberg

In 2004, my dream began to bear fruit: my first training in artistic gymnastics! The fascination remained. However, eight years and two broken kneecaps later, I was forced to change direction - and find a new passion.

What remained was my big dream: competing in the Olympics. So it was clear that my sporting career would continue, despite the setbacks. I've now been a springboard diver since 2012. And not only that, I am proud to represent Switzerland at international level as a diver. In addition to diving, I'm studying communication sciences and media at the University of Zurich.

I've been an ambassador for Right To Play Switzerland since 2025. And together we are celebrating our 25th anniversary, as I am also turning 25 years old. The first years in life are there to discover the world, understand it, to fall down, get back up and keep going. An ongoing learning process. This is what connects me to Right To Play, and I am wholeheartedly committed to ensuring that every child has the right to play and learn through play.
