Young gymnast learns a new element during the training camp upon Alina Kabaeva’s advice

A young training camp participant Olga Chernykh from Novosibirsk evaluated her performance at the assessment training session at the Alina Kabaeva Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy.

“The first object was the hoop. I did not perform very well with it. I took two risks, but Alina praised me. After the hoop, I did the clubs, and I lost it twice,” she said.

After the young gymnast showed the program with a hoop at the assessment training session, she received some valuable advice from the Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva, who offered the athlete to study a new element.

The very next day, the athlete from Novosibirsk took the advice and performed the new element perfectly during the morning workout.

The training camps at the Alina Kabaeva Sky Grace Rhythmic Gymnastics Academy run May 15 - 21 in Sochi, with 36 gymnasts from 16 Russian cities training under the guidance of leading experts.
