The St. Petersburg Championship was Diana Kotlovskaya's debut competition as an Academy student
13 February
In January, she successfully qualified and now lives, studies, and trains at Sirius.
At the tournament, we spoke with her father, Vyacheslav Kotlovsky, and Karina Gobuzeva, the coach at the Zhemchuzhina Gymnastics Center, with whom Diana trained prior to moving. In our video, you’ll see how the gymnast's life has changed!
