Coach Svetlana Sokolovskaya called the situation with the skater’s transition normal Alexandra Trousova to her group, which also includes an Olympic champion Mark Kondratyuk .
Trusova from 2016 to 2020 trained with Eteri Tutberidze in May 2020 moved to Figure Skating Academy Evgenia Plushenko , and a year later she returned to the Tutberidze group at the Sambo-70 school. Since October 2022, Trusova has been training at CSKA with Sokolovskaya.
“I was afraid it would happen, and it did. I knew she would leave. It turns out that there was such a friendship with Mark Kondratyuk. Everyone thinks, “Oh, she didn’t come to her, but to Mark.” Yes, to Mark, and that’s great. She was looking for herself. If Alexei Nikolaevich Mishin had Mark at that time, she would have gone to him. So they arrived, she took that step. Did she dream of riding at Sokolovskaya? Well, that’s funny, right? Even if Mark wasn’t in her life, she would have taken that step. No wonder she went to Plushenko, then back. She is looking for something,” Sokolovskaya said in an episode of the One-on-One online cinema documentary series PREMIER.
In February 2022, Trusova became the Beijing Olympics silver medalist in women’s singles.
