Choreographer Natalia Belugina choreographed a new program with clubs for the Academy student Elizaveta Geraskina from Moscow. Coach Elizaveta Chernova helped her with this.Natalia shared the details of creating the exercise and the image of the gymnast:<blockquote>"She has lovely exercises. She is simply such pretty, lovely girls. These rules need artistry nevertheless, something else is required. So, and we turned her into a shaman lady, with various spirits settling in. And it matcher her. She indeed like that."</blockquote>The specialist also told what the focus is when choreographing programs according to FIG rules:<blockquote>"We are working on everything. Emotion is indeed important, effects are important at the international stage, but everything should be done very accurately there. That is, so that everything is visible. Every element, every bend, when bending somewhere, to the horizontal, if something is not right, then they say good-bye. We are working hard, yes, do everything at 720 degrees, standing in all the poses, not in a rushing tempo, we did the program so that, you know, there is no such chasing. To have it emotionally beautiful, with stops yet clearly, so that they are not fuming when doing elements. They, the girls, indeed have the rage. It cannot be called differently. To make faster, quicker —&nbsp;no. Slightly calmer, we can do everything a bit quicker when starting, when making a certain transition, but not when doing elements."</blockquote>

After the master class at the Martial Arts Academy, the 2025 European Champion, many-time medalist of the Grand Slam tournaments, and Master of Sports of Russia in judo Danil Lavrentyev spoke about his way to victory:&nbsp;<blockquote>"Of course, I was very happy with this victory. It took me a long time to get here. It has been a very difficult road. Because there were a lot of injuries in both the junior and youth ranks. And somehow, a year before the Olympics, I managed to make the senior team, and then qualify for the Olympic Games. But, unfortunately, we didn't go. Last year I finished second at the European Championships, and this year I won."</blockquote>Danil Lavrentyev noted his father's role in his development:&nbsp;<blockquote>"Of course, he helped me a lot. He made me train almost my entire childhood. I was a lazy person. But he made me such a hardworking child, and that's paid off greatly in adult sports."</blockquote>The 2025 European Champion also prompted parents on how to properly train at home with their children:&nbsp;<blockquote>"Probably, if they ask, then, of course, it's in some kind of game format. Just like here we just played a little, wrestled, the guys were very happy, the kids were happy. I think everyone enjoyed it. You can wrestle and train at home too."</blockquote>The festival in Sirius was organized by the Ichiban-Tyumen Judo Club with the support of the Russian Judo Federation.
