Kanaeva said that it would be difficult for her to combine the work of a coach and the head of the FIG technical committee

“I am interested in rhythmic gymnastics.

It will be difficult to combine it with coaching, but there are exceptions in the person of Irina Aleksandrovna.

But now I feel great, I like my job.

I love the kids I train.

I understand why Irina Aleksandrovna said that I would apply for a place in the technical committee - she knows how much I love rhythmic gymnastics.

And she wants the technical committee to have people who have gone this way, who know how to make a throw, somersault, and not those who just write the rules, "Kanaeva said in an interview with RT.

Kanaeva clarified that she is learning English for herself, and not only because she sees herself in the technical committee.

The President of the All-Russian Federation of Rhythmic Gymnastics Irina Viner-Usmanova said earlier that in 2024 Kanaeva would apply for a position in the FIG technical committee.

Earlier, Dina Averina, silver medalist of the Tokyo Olympic Games in individual all-around in rhythmic gymnastics, spoke about her meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
