In the new episode of the "Alina. Novogorsk" series, Olympic champion Alina Kabaeva will talk about her path to the coveted victory, as well as the strength of character and genuine passion for the sport that help an athlete maintain self-confidence even in the most difficult moments.
Olympic champions Alexei Nemov, Evgeniya Kanaeva, and Svetlana Zhurova, USSR Honored Coach Olga Buyanova, Honored Master of Sports in fencing Olga Lobyntseva, and Egle Abruzzini, President of the Technical Committee of the International Gymnastics Federation (1984–2008), will also share their thoughts. Each of them, in their own way, will share what the word "champion" means.
Today, Alina Kabaeva actively shares her experience with young athletes, assisting them in training, creating routines, preparing for competitions, and revealing the secrets that make her routines unique. The Academy also creates the perfect environment to instill in the girls a desire for excellence, fortitude, and hard work, because without these qualities great victories are impossible.
