How it all started
figure skating
I start practicing Sports at the Age of 4. The story on how I got into figure skating is interesting and very romantic. in 1993, my parents met each others at a public ice-rink in Gorky Park. They both loved to skate and even once married (and when my mother was pregnant) they kept skating every winter in Gorky park. When I was just 1,5 years old, my parents bought my first skating boots and took me to the ice rink with them. Firstly, of course they had to carry me because I couldn’t stand alone on the ice. But the year after, I already started to do the first steps on the ice by myself. The following year I was already skating a little bit. then my parents decided to register me in to a figure skating school.
