Another very difficult Olympic cycle in the life of our school has ended. Perhaps you can analyze a little and summarize.
Evgenia Tarasova and Vladimir Morozov are Olympic silver medalists. These are our heroes who did not give up, turned to us for help and we are happy that we were able to organize the training process, gathering around a team of like-minded people and at the most important start in the life of any athlete, the guys gave the best skates, showing their untapped potential, in which many no longer believed.
Alexandra Trusova is an Olympic silver medalist. Once again, she broke the stereotypes about women's figure skating by performing five quadruple jumps in a free program, thereby proving to everyone that the impossible is possible. You can debate for a long time whether the game was worth the candle, but the steadfastness of the athlete is worthy of respect. Alexandra, like Gagarin, takes us into space. And in this she is the first, and maybe the only one.
Anna Shcherbakova - Olympic Champion. This status is for life. Anna has a difficult sports path. Many trials were in her way, but the ability of this girl to give more than she has allows Anna to be one of the most titled athletes of our time.
Maurice Kvitelashvili is an athlete who has been with us for 14 years. Maurice skated with dignity for the team and entered the top 10 athletes in the world. With his results, he has earned the right to be the flag bearer of the country he represents.
Kamila Valieva - Olympic champion in team competitions, our star. Very fragile and at the same time very strong athlete. The test that fell to Camila, our whole team needs to go through together. How indicative are such situations - those who were smiling yesterday, today left the stands, defiantly ignored and, like jackals, attacked, offering different ways of the Inquisition. So much the better, fate takes these people away from us, as if exposing the truth.
Diana Davis and Gleb Smolkin. These athletes, like ascetics, gave up the blessings for the sake of the goal - to combine both sport and art as much as possible, as the leading couples demonstrate. The path is still very long, but I will unconditionally support them. And what a blessing that during the turmoil, Disha supported me!
