Hey Lady. Welcome.
There's getting to be a pretty big women's community in the states, and they're all some of my favorite people. You're in good company!
Personally, I think the real essence of a traceur, traceuse or athlete isn't in how "good" they are at what they do. It's in how determined they are to keep at it. I remember sitting in a gymnastics gym one day, too shy to get up and get to work because I knew I'd be failing a lot and looking pretty stupid that day. In comes this fella, he hops onto the floor, goes to try a trick and falls on his butt. Then he jumps up again, and falls right back down. Again again again. He knew people were looking, and he knew he probably wasn't going to get his trick that day, but he kept trying anyway. That really inspired me. I got up and got to work too.
It doesn't really matter if you're going to look spectacular in a traditional sense when you're out training. If you're out there trying to learn something, there's something to be respected just in that itself. It's also more fun that way.
Good luck!
