Anna Frolova .Russian Women's Free Skating 2025/2026

And now, with a bright and emotional skating, Anna Frolova will appear on the ice. Anna Frolova I would even add another masterpiece from Anna Frolova. Anna, thank you for such a wonderful skating. We understand that now is the beginning of the season and it can be difficult. And yesterday, literally behind the scenes, you told us that you haven't skated for two months. And I would like to ask whether it is difficult to competently and beautifully disguise that an athlete is not in shape. But in today's skating, I would not call it that. Evgeny Vladimirovich, tell me, was it difficult for Anna in the offseason? Good evening, friends. First of all, I want to congratulate everyone on the beginning of the season. It is very pleasant that this wonderful event is taking place in our native St. Petersburg. As for Anna, you asked yesterday, Misha, how do you always manage to be in shape? Anna is cool. True, at the end of last season she got a pretty serious injury. But thanks to her steel character, she returned to self-reliant work almost imperceptibly between the seasons. And now she is preparing for the start of the season in order to realize everything that is planned for this season. Anna, do you often hear such warm words from the coaches? Do you want to say something in response? In general, yes, they often praise me. I love them very much for this. But they are also very demanding of me. And warm words? We are the favorite, best coaching staff. That is, you are one of those athletes who need to be praised more than scolded? I need both. Knut and Pryanik. My coaches perfectly feel the balance in this. And when you need to put a little pressure on me, let's say, not even with a scream, but with some tough word, they do it and everything is fine. And she immediately comes back to reality. Was it like that today? No, today everything was fine. Well, let's say a few words about the program that we saw today. A new production. How did it go? Whose ideas? The idea of Anna Novichkina, the director of this program. The Greek goddess. Not quite a positive character. I have a goddess of darkness. If you study mythology, it's Nyukta. If you read it in English on Wikipedia. I'll probably tell you more about the plot a little later. You will prepare for the stage and tell about the plot. The goddess of darkness, but inside with a kind heart. Well, on such a beautiful note, we conclude and move on to the next performance. Manya, thank you very much for the wonderful performances. And good luck in the season.
