European figure skating champion Alena Kostornaya said that her partner and husband Georgy Kounitsa helps him during his recovery from an injury.
Kostornaya, who competes with Kunitsa in pairs skating, underwent shoulder surgery in mid-February. It was reported that the 20-year-old athlete’s recovery would take around six months. On Sunday, Kostornaya gave a master class in Moscow.
— How is the recovery going? Does Gosha help?
— Gosha is very supportive and helps me during recovery.
When I announce master classes, many people come, although they understand that I may not be able to show something wow. It’s very nice that so many people are interested in me, my work and my activities. I’m getting an amazing response, I just want to keep going and please the fans,” Kostornaya told .
Kostornaya and Kunitsa took ninth place at the first Russian championship in December last year.
