In the movie “Side by side spin” on the Winline channel, Alena Kostornaia explained her decision to leave Eteri Tutberidze’s group in 2020. In July 2020, she switched from Tutberidze to Evgeni Plushenko. Here’s a translation.
“I grew up a bit and wanted to be listened to, to be heard. But they continued to treat me like a child. Our work was not built on a basis of mutual trust or dialogue; it was governed strictly by a tough approach.
After weighing everything once again, I decided to stick to my opinion. I called Eteri Georgievna and said: I would like to try working in a different way, with different methods. She said, ‘Well, go and try’,” the 21-year-old skater revealed in the documentary.
