Highlights from the start of the tournament for partners of the Sky Grace International Clubs Association in Sirius A news story by REN TV

Singer Ragda Khanieva commended the contribution of the Sky Grace International Clubs Association to world’s sport development.<blockquote>"The Sky Grace has already become like a family because I am for two years thus far singing songs in different languages of the world together with the festival, together with the tournament for gymnasts, for the Sky Grace. Now I am singing in Arabic. There will be a song with Arabic verses at the gala concert. People across the globe gather together owing to the Sky Grace, exchanging experience and beauty. Every time, when watching rehearsals in all corners of the world, I see how the girls unite, how the people unite. And this is very touching."</blockquote>She also named her favorite gymnasts among participants in the contest.<blockquote>"I am fond of Asel Arapova. She is my long-standing favorite. I watch her every time at rehearsals and admire how this small frail girl performs her elements so artistically, so vividly. And our athletes, certainly, the ones representing Russia. Each of them is unique in her own style. And all the girls are definitely gifted and very industrious."</blockquote>Ragda Khanieva took part in the Sky Grace Cup opening and in the Friendship routine that ended the picturesque gala concert in Doha.

This is growth, gymnast’s personal growth and this is how it is revealed, that they go a little beyond the limits, want to present themselves more, try more elements," she said.</blockquote>She explained why the activities of the International Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Clubs Association are so important.<blockquote>"It seems to me that these rules are increasingly getting people in the world of rhythmic gymnastics interested. Not only our Russian gymnasts are getting involved, but those from other countries are increasingly getting involved. It is very nice that they emphasize the individuality of the gymnast, that is, these are unique elements. And the opportunity to perform combined elements in group exercises. All this is interesting," she said.&nbsp;</blockquote>In addition, Evgeniya noted that her students will also take part in a showcare performance competition, the best of which will be selected for the Alina-2025 festival.<blockquote>"We have a huge desire to get to the Alina festival, since we have been participating in it for several years.
