Windsurfer Bryony Shaw, shooter Amber Hill and Paralympic team member, long jumper Stephanie Reed posed for the BeStrongBeBeautiful campaign ("Be strong, be beautiful") Bluebella underwear brands to encourage young girls not to ignore physical education classes at school.
According to statistics, more than half of high school students in the UK stop going to physical education classes after the age of 13 due to health problems or negative experiences gained in these lessons.

Stephanie Reed and two other athletes from the British Olympic team have teamed up to encourage high school students to take care of their bodies before it gets too late.
33-year-old windsurfer Bryony Shaw made her debut at the Summer Olympics in London in 2012 and took bronze.
Then, for the first time in history, the British Olympic team won a medal in windsurfing.

Hill is the young hope of the British team; she is only 18 years old. The girl has been shooting since she was 10 years old, and at the age of 15 she became the youngest ever winner of the international shooting Federation competitions. At the 2015 European Games in Baku, she won a gold medal, thanks to which she got into the national team that will go to Rio de Janeiro.
With a height of 162.5 cm, Bryony Shaw is one of the shortest in windsurfing, but you can see how developed her torso muscles are.
Stephanie Reed, 32, is a Paralympic track and field athlete competing in the long jump and sprint of the T44 category (with one leg amputated no higher than the knee or for athletes who have difficulty walking with one or both legs). Stephanie lost her leg in a boating accident when she was 16. She won a silver medal in the long jump at the London Olympics in 2012.
