The head coach of the Russian figure skating team, Elena Chaikovskaya, said coaches and athletes remained motivated despite their exclusion from international competitions.
In her speech at the conference, she emphasized that this was facilitated by the active work of the federation to reform the competition calendar, including tournaments of a new format.
— In the current situation, it is important to maintain national teams, because to raise a top athlete, it takes 12-14 years. It is necessary to support and maintain the current course towards technical development, and not towards simplification of programs, and what has always been inherent in national figure skating – musicality and choreographic charisma, – quotes the press service of the Russian Figure Skating Federation (FFKKR). As Tchaikovsky said.
Russian figure skaters have been suspended from participating in competitions held under the auspices of the International Skating Union (ISU) due to the situation in Ukraine.
