Teacher Alina Gafiyatullina talks about the Academy educational program for preschoolers

In September, the Alina Kabaeva Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy will launch an educational program for preschoolers.

Its teacher Alina Gafiyatullina explained that part of the educational process will include the immersion into a bilingual environment for children and a focus on their comprehensive development.

"I think this will be very relevant for athletes because they travel abroad very often and they need English both professionally and for general life," Alina said.

The Academy is finishing up the work on the subject and space nurturing environment, where classes will be held in an unrestricted play format.

"Supporting a child’s initiative is very important. She will independently choose the activity that she wants to do at any given time, be it a creative workshop or a sensory center. Perhaps it will be the center of logic and mathematical thinking. We will also have a theater studio. Since young athletes will also be engaged in developing gymnastics and choreography, we have prepared a small surprise for them — a retreat center where they can relax a little," the teacher said.
