"I am glad that I performed here for the public." Alina Harnasko on the match between the teams of St. Petersburg and Minsk

The Tokyo Olympics bronze medalist Alina Harnasko summed up the results of her performance at the match between teams of St. Petersburg and Minsk and spoke about the images in her programs. 

"I have updated all the four exercises this year, since the last Sky Grace tournament. All of them are different. I have returned the mysterious hoop. Then my favorite Spanish story in the ball, the character, the manner of movements and behavior.  My clubs turned out to be very unusual. I try for a minute and thirty seconds to convey all the havoc that is sometimes created in my head. And the lyrical, beautiful and strong ribbon. Cathédrales, France," she said.

The gymnast shared that she performed at the Zhemchuzhina Rhythmic Gymnastics Center for the first time.

"The friendly atmosphere was felt. The stands in St. Petersburg welcomed me. I have never performed in St. Petersburg and this is my first time in Zhemchuzhina. And I am happy that I have finally performed here for the public. I am really happy when little children come up to me. And I have never said ‘no’," Alina said.

Alina Harnasko won gold in the all-around seniors' program following the match between the teams of St. Petersburg and Minsk, which took place on April 23 at the Zhemchuzhina Rhythmic Gymnastics Center.
