my destiny in rhythmic gymnastics probably began with my parents, my dad was there too. shift, swimmer , i understood right away, he said, it is necessary to give in to the sport, but for general development, that is, there were no goals, there was immediately olympic, it was a long time ago, 27-26 years ago, as i remember, such blue eyes , such big cheeks, but long legs, and so diligent, so... diligent, i remember her well from

the first baby cup competitions, she had a number, the girl was called marinka with a blue one headscarf. marisha had a blue scarf , which she lost , it was a sport in the palace, we looked for a blue scarf for a very long time, she was upset, after all, we found it then, no, she gave me her marina vigentevna, we found another one, yes, marina vikkenteevna gave it, but she borrowed it and shared it with her friends. after all , first place, it was like this, an olympic medal is probably the most cherished dream of every athlete in life in a career, i honestly dreamed of an olympic medal since childhood, but i didn’t believe that it would happen in principle, it’s even possible, well, this one is heavy enough, it’s heavy, it’s not heavy enough, it’s heavy for every athlete. due to the efforts

that were put into this, due to the years and millions of hours of training, for a week before the competition i didn’t sleep at all, those were just completely sleepless nights, because you wake up in horror because you’ve lost an object, you can’t in a dream you take it and you can’t continue the exercises, you have, well, it’s like such a definite stress, but when it... you come to gym, warming up, doing everything as usual , as you have been used to for many years, looking into the eyes of the coach, going out and just doing your job, looking at your team, at the girls, believing, performing, seeing the score, then, well, some kind of explosion emotions, and then for a very long time you don’t understand what happened . holding this medal, that well, it

happened, because at that moment you just gosh, it’s so good, it’s so good that it ’s over, then it starts, when you arrive home, they greet you, there’s crying mom, the coach is crying, then of course you perceive it, by the way, this is the first time i’m crying with a medal in my hands. this path is very difficult and quite individual for everyone, but sport, of course, not only gives these medals, firstly, you fall in love with this business, you know how to work, you get... a lot of

teachers in life, friends, well... there are, in principle, a lot of factors that give, well, your segment of life, especially since i continue to live in sports, now i become a coach, i cry when my girls stand on the pedestal, they manage to win something, probably because this is your life, your dream, for the dream to come true and this... applies not only to rhythmic gymnastics, in general in life, in order for the dream to come true, i need to believe, and not take one step back from it.

far from the city. holy, here are your roots , your strength, go forward to come to yourself , slow down to enjoy the moment , the elements will tell you the direction: every step is unity with nature, wild, ancient, its own fir tree, belarus inspires, you will feel how

fast time has flown by, already 15 years old, at this place. there was a foundation pit , they removed snow from minsk, they decided to build such an object , everyone performed a miracle, we were talking about an object that should be a standard, it is a magnet, it is the center of attraction for everything, there are few such complexes in the world, this speaks of the intellectual potential of the state, this is a house, this is a wonderful house, the object stands the test of time, so many international competitions have taken place in... how many world champions, european and world medals do you already have? when we found out that we would have all these new products, the world began to sparkle with new colors, the possibilities are increased, it allows

you to close large, major events, the state must create symbols of its... and its sovereignty, i don’t want to go into pompous words, yes, but everyone knows what the minsk arena is. belarus is a central sports facility, where the most important events in our country take place, and not only sports, it is a magnet, it is the center of gravity of everything, the arena receives hundreds of people every day who play sports, who are fans, just

visitors, this is the brand of our country , pride, something that inspires admiration. 15 years ago the arena had already begun to function, and we began its construction much earlier; in 2006 there was already full-fledged work here and on such a small plot of land, probably few people imagined what could grow, i have always admired the work of architects, i just i don’t understand how...

different minscare or a globe in stockholm, it’s in the shape of a ball , this place was chosen, then on pobediteley avenue, minsk ended here, at this place where we are today, it was a pit, and here, in this winter period , snow was taken out from minsk, dumped, since it was the end of the city limits, here today everything is just beginning. this huge vacant lot near the academy of physical education in about 3 years should become a unique sports facility, the minsk arena. having looked at this large space, i was convinced that one building would not hold this space, it would simply be a town planning mistake. here you need a large complex, if we say an idea,

a stick with a puck, that is, there must be some kind of elongated volume and round. and now the puck is the arena itself, the stick is on... another ice rink is needed, natalya valeryevna tselinskaya and her authority helped, that is , she, if i may say so, pushed through the construction of this velodrome, well, and here it is, so to speak, included as a continuation , having certain sporting results, over the course of several years the president and i had a conversation, in general we entered into an agreement or agreement, i promised that i ... would have two gold medals from the olympic games, and the president said that when he will build a velodrome, i

i brought only bronze from the athens olympics, that is, i did not fulfill my obligations, he fulfilled his promise, and now we have a velodrome. there were times when construction issues were, well, as powerful as possible, yes, it was the movement of our head of state, this is big politics, yes, the issues of constructing not only living buildings , but primarily social facilities, in this case we were talking about the facility, which should be a standard, a center of attention in principle... an example for all other structures that will be in future to be built in our country, in principle

, it turned out that way, the schedule was such that in the eighth year the commissioning of the velodrome, then in the ninth year of the speed skating stadium and already the opening of, well, the entire complex, minsk arena - this is in the tenth year, that is, this the schedule is very tight, so it was necessary to create it here. a large team, the hard work began, so to speak, they even started immediately driving piles, nothing was ready yet, concrete grillages were being poured and backfilling was being done, after which the walls, columns would be erected and installed metal structures, we are also currently working on the velodrome, driving a pile field, and digging a pit for a short track, all objects were erected at the same time. they just gave up in queues , three main teams should be noted, these

are the designers, this is the customer, and these are the builders, those who are associated with the construction know that someone always wants to shift more responsibility to someone else, and so on, at this site well, i can proudly say that there was no division between the customer and the feeder, everyone thought how to fulfill for the attention that... was constantly paid to this object, it was emphasized by the fact that at all the cleanup days that we had here the head of state was present, this was three times, under and under control from beginning to end, pleasure and it’s good to work, it’s being built in the yard for people, after all , not for anyone, children will come to play hockey, they will go outside, a good thing, and such a big palace is another impetus for the development of hockey. in the republic of belarus is a project, but in some things it is so conceptual, that is

it’s not clear what kind of cold supply equipment there will be, it’s not clear what kind of coating system there will be, it’s atlantean, it’s not clear, so to speak, there are some kind of controllers that will be used, it was necessary to decide on the suppliers of this equipment, this work was extremely creative, extremely good. the height was, after all, this idea is like washers, a washer, we know it is narrow, the result was

achieved, since the height became more than two times smaller, a beautiful interior solution, that is, we see this design not just, in order to sew an even ceiling, that is, this is a double effect, both exterior and interior, the entire refrigeration technology was provided by an italian company, they had experience in building... building structures in turin at the winter olympics and at the velodrome with a german company that supplied the structure, it was such a creative community with...

almost all the heads of state of the former soviet union, all government delegations that came to minsk visited here, first of all it was a visit to the minsk arena. here you can i can tell you for a long time, and their admiration, and the main questions, how much it costs, to which the president once said that it’s 350 million

dollars, he says, so make us something like this, well , it will be a little more expensive for you, like this. imagine what it’s like to see the velodrome live, and it was so emotional, it was such a familiar event, you know, it was completely not from the outside. our cyclists will have their own cozy home according to world standards. the construction of the velodrome was carried out intensively, seven days a week, in three shifts

, which made it possible to reduce the time construction for more than 3 months. to everyone who took it. we will assign the right to host the european championship in minsk. the track will be completed right away at the first championship. for many years now, you see, they are one of the best, i would say, cycling tracks. since then, how many world champions, european and world medals have you already won on this track, i think that this is a big

deal, the length of the track is 250 m, width 7.5 m, large international competitions can be held, if not less than 7 m it's 13° here. capacity 200 people, temperature must be 18-24, because at a good temperature 24 speed is higher. the most significant event, i think, was the 13th world elite championship. this is always the final result. the cycling season was held at the highest level. he was remembered not only by us, but also by others.

of course, the canvas, there is a convenient exit to it, in general, the canvas is visible from all points, because the racers, when preparing for the start, they still look after their

teammates and cheer for them, but here, at any point, in general, you can see everything that's happening at the velodrome, but as for speed, well, you know, world records have been set here, national records are set here quite often, so our velodrome is one of the best in europe. in the world , there are masters who take care of the canvas, the canvas is in the best possible shape today, let’s say, no dimples, bumps, anything else, always smooth, it is considered the softest, because it is made from siberian christmas trees, usually made there by ladies , no more solid, humidity should be 40 - 60%, so that nothing dries out, that’s all maintained, checked, cared for, any fall means there is a notch, a scratch, a furrow somewhere, right? it is protected then by unpacking it is sealed up, at competitions, because there within 5 minutes if someone falls, the next one has to go, yes, we seal everything with tape, and

after the competition it is all sealed up, according to the project it would be possible to hold competitions here with of the highest international class in 28 sports, but today we can say with confidence that this is possible for a dozen more types... everything else is already our device, this is the core of the velodrome today, everything that happens there, ice hockey, yes, holding badninton there, holding other events, this is all that the institution itself, specialists, are already coming up with , introducing some aspects that daily operating this facility, freestyle, here there is a training process on the trampoline, this is a tradition, they come here for these trainings, they are satisfied with everything in terms of height, in terms of insurance, one of... the most important in preparation, we scroll here all the jumps that we plan to jump, we transfer from the lounge to the water from the water, we already transfer these jumps to the snow, the initial phase,

which is very important, the trampoline - these are completely different things, because on the trampoline you need to create the rotation yourself, well, push from him, on the springboard, you basically just need to stand him and he throws you up, i need my colleague in order to create exactly this feeling that you are flying out of the springboard, and here... they practice jumping on special equipment, skaters, spinning, jumping, a lot of work is done in the hall, almost ideal conditions have been created for figure skaters, we have a choreography hall and it is located between the skating stadium and velodrob, that is, we really are a kind of connecting link between summer sports and winter sports , such as kurenkan, ice skating, short track, this is a home, this is a wonderful house, very hospitable, which gave us a lot of good things... we very actively began to cooperate

with the international skating union, so that annual events were held here international tournaments of the highest level. so in the twelfth year we held the world junior championships in figure skating, in the sixteenth year the european championships in speed skating, there were a sufficient number of stages of both junior and adult world cups in speed skating and there was an adult stage of the world cup, even one was held in short skating for the nineteenth european figure skating championships. the belarusian national team has grown, now it trains here under the leadership of olympic champion oleg vasiliev and of course, the arena provides good conditions , first of all

, there is enough ice, here... they do short track speed skating and also training camps are held here, and we invite short track skaters from all over the country on an ongoing basis together with the rcop, if we talk about speed skating , then this is the only skating rink in the republic, we skated on the silver skating rink and then moved to the minsk arena, i was about 15-16 years old, that was the end of junior school, but at the moment when i just started here walk when it opened, we were engaged in my group, but there was no such thing that i really

knew that... exactly this is where i will always be, this is minscare and this sport is my life, well then i’m generally 15-17 years old you do all this very consciously, you just walk, because you are in a group, you are in a team , of course, the conditions are great, we have locker rooms, we train here, this is our base, this is our home, we are talking about the national team, this is the whole generation minskoren, they were small here. ivalchuk came here to train on the ice, and he gradually became the world champion in 16, as soon as it was built, at that time i came to study and you can say that i am the generation that grew up. here the facility stands the test of time, so many international competitions have taken place in cycling , skating, hockey, a wonderful building , absolutely everything is there, gyms, running, velodrome, hockey rinks, please exercise, just come and exercise for free, you don’t have to pay for it, in europe they pay a lot of money to come for a ride, to work out, to get some kind of skates, that is, hire a trainer,

we have it all for free. gave all the important qualities in life, the same discipline, that is , approach, thinking, that is, all this develops in sports, and if you are successful in sports, then you will be successful in other areas of life, that is, parents need to think about this, which may relate to sports, they are somehow afraid of injuring a child, of course, services are provided here to the general public, anyone can come to skate, we actively work with nearby... schools on a weekly basis we hold meetings with parents and school students, inviting them to enroll in speed skating groups and go ice skating at the public skating box that is definitely not idle, the cycling track is definitely not idle, i see badmintons being played there all the time, i probably would like more kids to skate, our big oval would be busier, our ice makers are good, they ask how the ice is, what to do, how it feels, it fits all the time, the most

capricious of course is... it’s not very soft, will break off at turns, if the ice is very rolling, if the ice is frozen , they are viscous, they will, as they call it, sink in this ice, therefore, in principle , a separate technological map for preparing ice is created for them, where we strictly follow the temperature, strictly we follow the parameters of ventilation and microclimate. so that the quality of the ice is at its peak, it can be excellent during training, you’re just surprised, well, some combination is ideal, it’s cold here, there’s some kind of atmosphere, or people will come warmer and all this together somehow, well rolls, rolls straight, our ice has been around for 15 years, there are no complaints about it, it’s not for nothing that they say that the ice is boiled, the ice is not cooked, the ice is boiled, when to pour it in, that’s like a cook making cutlets,

if he’s inexperienced then... give him the food it will also ruin why we are not an ice preparation department, but ice makers, because all ice preparation is done with hot water, the water should be at a temperature of 55-60.

water on concrete, concrete, itself is gray in color, and the ice, as you can see, is white, when painted, a layer of water is applied again, the area is ready for marking, then small with smooth water is applied in layers using a special frame , then we move on to hose fills , the ice should be at least 4 cm thick for hockey. we are now in the water treatment room of the skating stadium, the water should not be simple, it must be prepared unambiguously, it is comparable to glacial water, that is, it must be cleared of all impurities, it must be softened, this is achieved with the help of reagents and

the filter system, when they built and handed over the non-running arena, the italians, they brewed coffee on it, demonstrate what it is indeed , the quality of the water is completely purified, then there is the heart of the arena, where the refrigeration unit is... there is the largest tank, our ten-cubic tank, with machines - the excess ice is cut off, it is heated again, the cleaning system goes through again, it is practically a closed, closed system, the ice is filled in the summer all year round, it is maintained, and for such events as now there will be basketball, concert events, it is covered with a special heat-insulating coating, popularly called blueing, then there is it specially laid, it ... i knock it together, that is, there is a special heat-insulating layer inside it, which allows you to keep the desired temperature of the ice in order to maintain it, at the same time a favorable climate for spectators and for athletes, well, for certain participants

events taking place at this site. 15 years is still a small age for such objects as miscarena, but every year we need to implement something, change something, something... if we deploy it, it will be one screen, which, using special software, can be further divided into a different number of zones, faces, overlay video and graphics in several layers, that is , this new software allows us

to do all this, the capabilities have been increased, the cube area is actually 230 km, the weight is about 15 tons, allows you to display any pictures in 4k format, from television broadcasts to any. content, if earlier there was essentially an ordinary small tv with eight sides, now it is a downright modern and super system with a cool a powerful media server, where we can display images in 4k, and make animated screensavers to work with the audience, great sound that pleases the ears of all fans who are present in the arena, before modernization there was a division between sports dubbing and concert dubbing, we used sound at sporting events. which used to hang around the old media cube, for concert events we used our old concert complex. now, instead of the old sports dubbing , we have a new one hanging here, this one is ours sports and concert complex, it is unique in that we can transform it into

the configuration we need. today we can remove all this sound and transfer it to concerts to sound the lower tiers of the stands, the lower and upper tiers of the stands, the stalls, and the dance floor later. all this is managed, indeed, if

you look at some nhl, there are not many arenas, in fact, close to the level of the minsk arena, when we found out that we would have all these new products, it was a holiday, the world sparkled with new colors for our department marketing, we understood what enormous opportunities this would bring for working with viewers, now we have other plans, now we have more informational plans, we are moving towards having online sales that are more modern, they are already... .they sent us so that we have food at khl games, so that there are no queues, so that we also have online sales, so that over time we will go into the stands, analyzes the arenas, which ones and the cities where large khl events can be held , by the way, i did such a survey, then minsk our arena is second, third place does not go lower.

when the stadium is full, we feel this support, in fact , minsk fans are special fans who have probably already impressed the entire continental hockey league with their support, all the guys who come to us then share their impressions, saying that you have simply amazing atmosphere in the arena, very good show, how people are cheering, goal, vladislav katola, 1:1, it’s nice that for such a long time people come and support the team, the team is almost full stadium, not for all games, but almost always , the team that comes, they also praised all the time that it is difficult to play here in minsk, because all the time the fans help their team, we always had full houses, even in independence, the team lost to itself the fans came, comfortable conditions , comfortable... the locker room, although it is not very big, but we have everything, we have everything, we have

two doctor’s offices, a massage room, a relaxation area, it’s like two swimming pools, cold with hot water, sauna, for recovery we have such a room, there is a small kitchen, a room for holding a meeting before the game, a large gym, a large warm-up room, that is, very comfortable, good conditions, everything in order to progress here, three objects that could be created.

all structures. our goal is to make sure that the stay of guests in belarus is comfortable, and that the offered service can satisfy the most demanding audience. the reviews for the first championship were the highest. then the attendance record was broken world championships.

we came here for the world championships , everyone admired, were completely delighted with how it was all organized, how clean everything here is, how good people are, so everyone just said good things, no one even said anything bad, and i’m saying, that everyone wanted the world cup to be held here once again, and we are ready, the most important thing is that technically and technologically, we are ready to host any forum, and today we can start holding it, but naturally,

only the arena itself is ready to host, especially more since there are already enough hotels and the service sector is much larger, but even earlier... we have accumulated a wealth of experience in holding major events, this is no longer related to sports, but the junior eurovision, the arena was just commissioned, commissioning work was still underway here, taking into account the fact that there was a need, the khl had to play, the ice was not heated , there was no spare rink, all these podiums were installed on this ice, everything else is also a unique event, the participant

is also holding exhibitions of central and military equipment and tibo, that is, from egon this is also we can kind of say that this is an exhibition center for cultural events, concerts - this is the only facility in the country that can accommodate so many people under a roof, another event that few people know, the first large-scale concert, this is the armstai group, i there was a fire somewhere up there, which...

it doesn’t matter what capitalization is - this is certainly the opening of new facilities for the minsk arena, a house for freestyle cycling, bmx, freestyle cycling, this task will be built in the near future delivered to a greater extent to us, because it will be under our institution, yes, we will be leading the line in design and operation, this is a very interesting object, the object will include , in addition to the sports direction of bikes, including skateboards, yes, this also an olympic type of program, this is the entire subculture that is on the streets today, i mean the guys on rollerblades, on skateboards, and so on and so forth, they will have the opportunity to do this under a roof all year round, our facility had none

one day off, on january 1st , it starts with lunch here, this is what is unique, there was quite a young team. belarusian doilitstva, which

is important for its jumping and this time , for the sake of belarus, the trees are the same as... in the belarusian garades and massacres at 16, 17, navat 18 hundred godji often found elements of baroque architecture. which exactly

existed 40 million years ago. glyadtse on our tv channel. the heroes of this program chose life outside the cities. this is a nice thing, all of our brothers and great-grandfathers lived with ours ladies, falvarks. we arrived at the forest.

in the public domain. we have no secrets from our people. yakov mikhailovich sverdlov. on lenin's instructions, on behalf of the russian federation, he conveyed congratulations to the first all-belarusian congress of soviets on the formation of the belarusian, soviet socialist. smalensk 30 snowfall of the year 18 ў with this budynka the sixth dawn-sunning ablas

recently, pelsudsky fought against the entente, on side of germany. today the americans gave him 20 thousand machine guns, 300 aircraft, and more than 200 tanks. the most modern technology that the soviet country had was on its way to the western front. we had few planes, literally just one.
