Last season, Tyutyunina and Grachev took seventh place at the Russian Championship and became bronze medalists at the Moscow Grand Prix.

It fills all the empty cells in you, fixes the vector of your movement, necessary to improve your skating level. He makes it very clear to us when we can’t find a solution as a couple, so we can feel comfortable. Alexander Vyacheslavovich, like an x-ray, hits the mark. He is truly a maestro, a genius, it is not for nothing that he has trained so many Olympic champions. I love him very much, I’m proud of him and I appreciate that he puts in so much effort and knowledge.
-Can you ask him for advice?
— In the work process, of course. I can and will contact you. He always listens to me when I’m lost in myself. It really helps to find the right answer and keep moving forward,” Tyutyunina told .
