Skaters Alena Kostornaya And Georgy Kounitsa joined the coaching staff of Evgeni Plushenko’s academy.
As Plushenko reported on his Telegram channel, the group from Kostornaya and Kunitsa announced the recruitment of groups of amateur adults and athletes in youth categories.
It is noted that the duo will work with the athletes on sliding, jumping, spinning and training programs, as well as general and special physical training and choreography.
Since September 2023, Kostornaya has been a choreographer at the Plushenko Academy. The 21-year-old figure skater helped the academy’s athletes prepare for show programs.
Earlier, Kostornaya announced that she and her husband Kunitsa would miss several tournaments, as the recovery process from her illness was delayed. Last season, the skaters took ninth place at the Russian Pair Skating Championships.
Kostornaya trained in Plushenko’s group during the 2020/21 season.
