Ustinova wants to open a swimming school in Yekaterinburg

swimming world championships Daria Ustinova told a correspondent that she would like to open her own school in Yekaterinburg.

Ustinova won the 50m backstroke at the Yekaterinburg International University Sports Festival on Saturday.

— I already have an online master class project, but I would like to work directly in the pool and share my experience. I have a rich career, where I didn’t swim, I worked with different coaches. The main thing is to find time for it.

– In this Palace of Water Sports there will be a school of Alexander Popov.

I saw this news. Mine probably won’t be there in that pool. Obviously, I can’t compete with him.

— But you want to implement your project in Yekaterinburg?

– Yeah, maybe I’ll start with the pool I’m swimming in. Maybe physical fitness. Getting started is always the hardest thing. I would like to do this in Yekaterinburg, because I take it seriously, it’s not like someone is doing this for me.

Will there be a short water season?

“I’m going to take a break and start exercising. From the beginning of September, we will prepare for the lack of water. Let’s see what the coach will say, what the situation will be, but so far everything is going as planned,” Ustinova told .
