Academy students lead the way. Lia Rodionova talks about the Academy Museum

The athlete made a special report for you on one of the tournament days. She talked to the participants of the competitions, Alina Galochkina from the Vladimir Region, Sofia Nikolskaya and Anastasia Rybina from the Moscow Region.

At the Russian Championship, Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva was congratulated on the upcoming March 8 holiday by world swimming champion Alexander Krasnykh, world artistic gymnastics champion Ivan Stretovich, NBA champion Timofey Mozgov, world bobsled medalist Dmitry Trunenkov, Olympic canoe sprint champion Yuri Postrigay, Olympic diving champion Ilya Zakharov, world sambo champion Suren Balachinsky, and Olympic artistic gymnastics champion Artur Dalaloyan.

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva, coach Elizaveta Chernova, choreographer Elena Egorova, two-time Olympic champion Evgenia Kanaeva, former coach of Arina Tatiana Amelchenko, and the entire team of the Academy — each contributed their knowledge, experience, and support to this result.

Alina Kabaeva helps the gymnasts to see growth points in mistakes. After the performances, she sorts out together with the athletes why inaccuracies occurred in the program and advises how to avoid them further on.

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva's clubs training with Eva Kononova from the Tyumen Region.

She won both event finals without a loss and earned bronze.

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva reminded Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg about that after the clubs routine on the third qualification day of the Russian Championships.

The gymnast showed an extremely difficult boomerang.

We invite you to look back at how this routine was created. The choreographer was Natalia Belugina. Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva and Academy coaches Evgenyia Eliseeva and Olga Minigalina also played an active role in the process.

This is precisely what Alina Kabaeva taught Alexandra Borisova. After the Moscow championship, the gymnast listened to the guidance of the Olympic champion and worked on her mistakes together with her coach Irina Gusarova, so that a month later she could perform decently at the Russian championships.

Before her performance, Olympic champions Alina Kabaeva and Evgeniya Kanaeva helped the gymnast work on the details and get ready for the performance, and afterward corrected her mistakes.

Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva and Alina Festival choreographer Irina Zenovka helped Mariia Borisova from St. Petersburg not to loose the mood of the music in her ball exercise by suggesting that she emphasized the accents.

It's important to work together, as a team, on the path to victory. This is precisely what the Olympic champion emphasized after the awards ceremony.
