The year 2024 has been declared the Year of Family in our country. Over the fifty-year history of the Volga Region University of Sport and Tourism, many bright dynasties have formed within its walls, and we invite you to get acquainted with them in the section ‘Generations of the Volga Region’.
Today Evelina and Eleonora Akhtyamov will share their story.
Eleonora, the eldest of the sisters, joined rhythmic gymnastics at the age of nine. Evelina watched her sister's training and started at the age of three. All their careers they trained under one mentor and literally breathed gymnastics.
Having studied at the Volga Region University, Evelina and Eleonora, being masters of sports of Russia in rhythmic gymnastics, received judging categories and became mentors for future champions at the Integrated Sports School, and Eleonora manages to teach at the Department of Theory and Methodology of Gymnastics.
