"Everything has been created so that Olympic champions can grow here." Natalya Tishina - about Academy conditions at the Academy

Russia’s Honored coach Natalya Tishina came to the international Games of Countries tournament. She commented on the conditions at the Alina Kabaeva Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy. 

"The floors are splendid. A very calm and good design that encourages practice. An excellent stage. Everything is created for Olympic champions to grow here," she said.

She also supported the decision of Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva to return the jump rope exercise to the program.

"Bringing back the jump rope introduction is interesting. This is because the work with all other kinds stems from the jump rope. These are centered items, throws, and the technique of mastering the object. It depends a lot on the jump rope. I believe this is an advantage that Alina Kabaeva for the first time introduced the jump rope here. This is because it is necessary," she said.

 The "Games of Countries" tournament was held at the Academy,  October 19-22.
