They also paid attention to synchronicity and correct interaction. And again, the main advice from the Olympic champion is to perform calmly, attentively and without fuss.

In Novogorsk, the athlete from Volgograd worked with choreographer Ekaterina Sergeeva on every detail of her movements, focusing on shoulder placement, leg lines, and the precision of her positions. Special attention was paid to technique, turnout, and elegant presentation.
