European figure skating champion Alena Kostornaya talked about working with female coaches.
– There are such that they are tougher than men. This is probably why girls are stronger than boys. Many women know how to put them in their place without shouting or swearing … For example, Elena Vyacheslavovna Zhgun did it brilliantly. During all the time we worked with her, I never heard a single rude word from her. She looks very small, thin, but if something went wrong, she would come closer and start, hovering over you, very menacingly, not even to speak, but to hiss. It was my worst childhood fear. Yes, and now it also happens sometimes when you need to communicate, – quotes the words of Kostornaya RT.
Last season, 18-year-old Kostornaya trained with Eteri Tutberidze. During the offseason, she changed her group – now the skater is under the leadership of Elena Buyanova.
Earlier, Kostornaya told that she will undergo surgery on her injured hip at the end of August.
