Neviana Working on Brave New Routines!

Neviana Vladinova, Bulgaria's top rhythmic gymnast, will be showing 4 new routines in 2016. I feel very hopeful that each of the routines will show the best and Nevi has to offer to the world of gymnastics and will remain memorable for the audience around the world. I would like to share snippets of some of the new work with ball and I can't wait to see more:

I wish all gymnasts the best of health in 2016 and may this year bring out the best in all of us!

Wishing You a New Year Full of Duende

Germany's New Coach is a Former Bulgarian Group Competitor

As you may have heard, Ekaterina Dulamova will work with the German rhythmic group in 2016. She has previously worked in Greece and I found this gala routine showing some of the girls she trained:



It would be very interesting to observe how the style of the German group will change with the new coach given that they have been a constant contender for the world's top 8.

Ekaterina Dulamova was born in 1979 in Plovdiv where she trained with coach Irina Cherneva. She became part of the Bulgarian national team in the mid 1990s. Good luck to the new coach and the German team!
