Evgenia Medvedeva

Looks like Zhenya’s seminar for Japanese Tokai University was today:


56 minutes, wow! I’m really impressed how good her English is. Of course, living in Canada for two years will do that to you but still, almost an hour long live interview in a second language is still difficult to pull off.

Apparently they offered her to study at their university, too, haha. How sweet.

Zhenya’s also not running out of other opportunities, she‘ll be doing a skating seminar/master class.



I'm excited to see her and she will be a terrific team captain. :love2:

I agree. I am actually looking forward to it now that we’ll see Zhenya. I hope the drama will be kept at a minimum and everyone will have fun. It could be like WTT, which is a great event for so many reasons, one of them that it’s not as cutthroat as other major competitions and it also has the team portion. I’m pretty sure both teams will want to win, they’re all very competitive after all, but it should be not as...intense as a Worlds or National competition.

On the color of costumes. Did anyone pick white and blue for Masquerade? Did anyone pick purple for Alegria? I think purple is perfect.
 

"FIGURE SKATER EVGENIA MEDVEDEVA SKATED ON THE ICE OF A LAKE IN CHITA

Silver medalist of the 2018 Olympics Evgenia Medvedeva arrived in Transbaikalia to conduct master classes for children. In unusual conditions for herself, one of the most titled figure skaters in Russia, silver medalist of the 2018 Olympics, world and European champion Evgenia Medvedeva held another training session. Instead of a tracksuit or a bright dress with a floating skirt, Evgenia is wearing a down jacket with a pulled hood, and instead of an ice arena with spectator stands, the endless expanses of the Trans-Baikal Territory. Evgenia completed her training on the creaky ice of Lake Kenon, which is located within the boundaries of Chita.No, the figure skater came to the Trans-Baikal Territory not to prepare for the next competition, but at the invitation of the local government.
- We have invited Evgenia to us for the holiday of the "Five Years of Sports in Transbaikalia", - say "KP" - "Irkutsk" in the press service of the government of Transbaikalia. - This is our program, which is being implemented to make sports accessible to all residents. Since we have developed winter sports, we decided to invite the clever, beautiful figure skater Evgenia Medvedeva.By the way, Evgenia Medvedeva prepared her skates as soon as she got off the plane. It turned out that she saw Lake Kenon from the plane's window before landing in Chita. And she asked the organizers to take her there. The champion was delighted.
- Look what clean marks after the blades of skates remain on the ice, - Evgenia was surprised, gracefully cutting circles.
- We also take Evgenia to Lake Arakhley, so she will ride there too, - the government press service continues. - Of course, this is not Baikal, but it is also a very significant place for local residents.
Well, after getting acquainted with the nature of Transbaikalia, Evgenia Medvedeva will go to the little athletes in the local children's figure skating section and hold master classes for the children."

"Governor of Transbaikalia Evgenia Medvedeva: Sport is the most important factor to switch to a creative lifestyle

The Governor of the Trans-Baikal Territory, Alexander Osipov, thanked the famous figure skater, Olympic medalist Evgenia Medvedeva, who arrived in Chita on January 22, for the visit to the region. The head of Transbaikalia shared with her his ideas in the field of sports development.

We understand that sport is one of the most important factors, and for someone it may be the only one, to move to a constructive, positive, healthy lifestyle. After all, some people have addictions. At the same time, people from Transbaikal are very talented, we have a large number of honored athletes, people who have reached a high level in various sports. It is important for us to give as many people as possible the opportunity to get involved in sports, it is not necessary to become a champion, but it will help to realize themselves in life, ”said the Governor.
Evgenia Medvedeva, in turn, stressed that every person needs a goal, and this requires discipline and motivation.

“I hope that it is physical culture and sports that will help Transbaikal people find themselves in life,” said the Olympic medalist.

According to her, she was in Transbaikalia for the first time and I really liked the region. Evgeniya skated on lakes Kenon and on Arkhalea. “It's cold, but very cool,” added the skater.

Recall that 2021-2025 in Transbaikalia has been declared the 5th anniversary of sports. It was to the official grand opening that Evgenia Medvedeva was invited. The event will take place on January 23 in Chita in the Ice Palace, as well as in all regional centers of the Trans-Baikal Territory.

In addition, Evgenia Medvedeva will hold master classes for young figure skaters from seven to 15 years old. Younger groups of athletes are invited as spectators. In the first hour on the ice with the world champion athletes of senior groups, mainly with a sports category, will be engaged. In the second hour, athletes of youth categories. Master classes will be held at the Ice Palace ice arena on January 22 and 23 at the address of the city of Chita, General Belik Street, 33.

Zhenya with a coach from Chita.

The coach posted this :)
"Evgenia Medvedeva came to us today. Tomorrow there will be a celebration on the ice of the Ice Palace: Five years of sports 2021-2025 in the Trans-Baikal Territory. Tonight there was a dress rehearsal, and Evgenia gave a small master class for the children of Crystal club. And then we had a chance to talk to her over a cup of tea... Nice girl, a great figure skater. Like all those who have achieved a lot, she has ambitions and plans for the future. Tomorrow she will perform her program "Geisha" for us. You should see the eyes of our children: all of them are Zhenya's fans! We wish more athletes of this level would come to us, because our children look up to them. Our only regret is that we had a VERY low number of invitations. There were a lot of people who wanted to come, but not everyone was lucky enough to get an invitation."

I hope she does more of these classes. I'd like her to do it in European cities, too. To be an ambassador of the sport.
And I love her pink sweater.
 
Video report about Zhenya's master class :)


Zhenya says in the video:"I would like to motivate the guys to go in for sports. Show by your own example that sport is really the norm of life.
Probably, people do not have enough opportunities, but opportunities are places, sections where to start playing sports. I hope that the next 5-10 years will be invested in the development of sports. In the construction of new skating rinks, stadiums."

The Minister of Sports of Transbaikalia says in the video:
"It was very interesting today. Evgenia, when approaching Chita, she noticed that we have a lake practically in the center of the city. She asked us to take her there, she rode. She really liked it. After lunch we took her to Arakhlei. She also rode, was delighted with our nature."
