Evgenia kanaeva height and weight


When Evgenia turned 12, she had a chance to show her skills. The girl was lucky to go to the capital for a sports training camp. In Moscow, Amina Zaripova liked the young athlete and soon received an invitation to study at the school of the Olympic reserve.

The girl accepted the offer and began to study under the strict guidance of Vera Shtelbaums. Vera Shtelbaums has a rich coaching experience, so she was able to choose the right exercises for Evgenia's performances, which later led the girl to numerous victories.

2003 was a turning point in the career of the young athlete. Evgenia went to win the Japanese championship and became the best among juniors. The victory allowed the girl to get to Novogorsk and start serious training with the Russian rhythmic gymnastics team. There, the girl's sports talent was revealed to the maximum.

At the beginning of Yevgenia Kanaeva's sports career, the reason why her mother did not give her child to the sport in childhood came to light: severe competition did not allow the athlete to get into the national team.

In 2004, Alina Kabaeva and Irina Chashchina brought Olympic gold to the national team. Vera Sesina and Olga Kapranova followed them up the career ladder. But in 2007, Kabaeva was suddenly injured. I had to urgently look for a replacement, and Evgenia Kanaeva went to the European Championship in Baku. They made big bets on the girl, and she did not let the team down.

The athlete appeared in a team with Sesina and Kapranova and performed all the elements cleanly. This brought the girls a victory and a long-awaited gold medal. In a singles performance with a ribbon, Evgenia also won. Then she was taken to a more serious competition - the world championship. And here the athlete showed herself by winning gold.

The Olympics are a competition in which the program must be thought out to the smallest detail. In 2008, performing with a tape to the music of "Moscow Nights", Evgenia Kanaeva did not take a prize. 

Attention was riveted to Sesina and Kapranova, and such competition morally pressed on the girl. But by April, she firmly pulled herself together and won several stages of the Grand Prix and the World Cup. At this triumphant moment, the girl became the absolute leader and champion of Russia.

At the European Championships, Evgenia joined the Russian national team and became the European champion. It became clear that the athlete no longer had competitors, and she would go to the Olympic Games. In the summer of 2012, the girl went to defend the honor of the country in Beijing with Olga Kapranova.

At that time, Evgenia Kanaeva became the youngest winner. The flexible and plastic athlete did not make almost any mistake. And in 2012, at the London Olympics, she proved her talent to the jury by becoming a two-time champion.
