The gymnast showed an extremely difficult boomerang.

We invite you to look back at how this routine was created. The choreographer was Natalia Belugina. Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva and Academy coaches Evgenyia Eliseeva and Olga Minigalina also played an active role in the process.

This is precisely what Alina Kabaeva taught Alexandra Borisova. After the Moscow championship, the gymnast listened to the guidance of the Olympic champion and worked on her mistakes together with her coach Irina Gusarova, so that a month later she could perform decently at the Russian championships.

Before her performance, Olympic champions Alina Kabaeva and Evgeniya Kanaeva helped the gymnast work on the details and get ready for the performance, and afterward corrected her mistakes.

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva and Alina Festival choreographer Irina Zenovka helped Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg not to loose the mood of the music in her ball exercise by suggesting that she emphasized the accents.

It's important to work together, as a team, on the path to victory. This is precisely what the Olympic champion emphasized after the awards ceremony.

She qualified for the individual events finals at the Russian Championship with it, finishing sixth.

Two-time Olympic champion Evgeniya Kanaeva worked hard to engage the athlete's full potential while creating a new ball routine for Anna Vakulenko from Volgograd.

These are exactly the words Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva said to Arina Kovshova from the Novosibirsk Region during the qualification at the Russian Championships.

Her coach, Irina Gusarova, was also with her.

The program was created by Irina Zenovka, Alina Festival choreographer, while Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva and Mariia's personal coach, Irina Gusarova added interesting details.

Before and after her performance at the Russian Championship, the Olympic champion stayed in touch with our gymnasts.

The video features a turn performed by our Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg. Incidentally, Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva analyzed his technique with the athlete.

We want to recall one of the training sessions, during which Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva said some very important words to the girls. It was with this spirit that they took to the court, fighting to the end and showcasing the champion's spirit even in their first senior competition.

Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg performed her hoop routine perfectly at the start of the 2026 Russian Championship, taking the lead in the standings.

Alina Kabaeva reminded everyone of the importance of total dedication and also shared an effective training method, citing five-time Olympic champion in artistic gymnastics Nellie Kim as an example.

Now take a look at how the Academy prepared to support their friends at the Russian Championship and how they congratulated the group gymnasts on their victory!

We asked the athletes about their new routines and the significance of this competition. Agata Barekzai, Alisa Eremeeva, Anastasia Mikhailova, Anna Nikolaeva, and Sofia Solonskaya from St. Petersburg, along with gymnasts from the Russian Federation's regional team, Ekaterina Timoshenko, Alisa Chernyaeva, Nonna Nyanina, Maria Fedorovtseva, and Sabina Baiburina, shared their thoughts.

We worked with the coaches to thoroughly analyze each routine, and before they took to the floor, precise and important words were spoken. We show how Alina Kabaeva and Anna Ustsova prepared the athletes for the five-ball routine in the all-around.

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva worked with Irina Zenovka, Alina Festival choreographer, who put together the Academy group gymnasts routine with five balls.

This is precisely what the Olympic champion pointed out to the Academy group exercises. Alina Kabaeva, together with coach Anna Ustsova, advised Alina Proshchalykina on how to best execute the vault in the five-ball exercise.

Before the Russian Championship, the Olympic champion was in touch with our gymnasts during floor testing.

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva helped the athletes get into the right frame of mind.

That's exactly what Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva told our senior team and coach Anna Ustsova during preparations for the Russian Championships. She asked that we leave a difficult and spectacular moment in the program. The girls didn't disappoint at the tournament in Moscow! We're showing the training and performance of the new Russian champions!

In a group routine, expressiveness depends largely on flow—movements should logically follow one another, without pauses or hesitations. Alina Kabaeva and Academy coach Anna Ustsova worked specifically on the flow of the hoops and clubs routine with the senior group gymnasts during a control training session. And you saw the results for yourself on the floor!

We're showing a fragment of a call between Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva and the Academy group gymnasts ahead of the Russian Championship floor testing in Moscow.

Indeed, our girls are Russian champions in the all-around and silver medalists in the hoop and clubs finals!

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva supported group exercise gymnasts of the Academy on the eve of their performance at the Russian Championships. She helped the gymnasts to get in the right frame of mind for their work and advised them to focus solely on the exercise, not worrying about the results.

In January 2026, when our senior group exercises team was just forming, Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva explained to the gymnasts what their goal should be. The results were visible within a month: at the Russian Championships, Sofia Sokolovskaya, Nelly Reutskaya, Nicole Andronchik, Alina Proshchalykina, and Zlata Remchukova won the all-around title and silver in the three-hoops-and-clubs routine!
