The debut of Mikhail Kolyada, who took third place in the free program at the European Championships in Bratislava and showed an overall fifth result, became one of the most striking events of the season. The SE columnist spoke with the coach of the 20-year-old skater.
Mikhail KOLYADA
Born on February 18, 1995 in St. Petersburg.
Winner of the Russian Junior Championship (2013).
In the 2015/2016 season, he took fifth place at the Russian Grand Prix, won silver at the Russian Championship and became fifth at the European Championship.
Coach - Valentina Chebotareva. Choreographer - Olga Klyushnichenko.
It was not difficult to find the coach of the 20-year-old figure skater Valentina Chebotareva in Bratislava: she spent all her free time at the skating rink, even when her coach’s training was over. Although this is probably understandable: for Chebotareva, as well as for her athlete, the European Championship was the first in her life.
GAVE KAZAKOV IN GOOD HANDS
Before the short program, I was so worried that I almost didn’t remember myself or my actions. Some ridiculous questions constantly popped into my head: where should I stand, how should I behave,” admitted Chebotareva. - But before the free program, he “let go.” Confidence and liberation appeared. The same thing, it seemed to me, happened with Misha. He started the short program differently than usual. Very tight. It rolled out only towards the end. But when he came out to skate the free skate immediately after Florent Amodio had skated beautifully, he was not embarrassed by either the applause or the general excitement.
- Your athlete noticed after the short program that he had never failed two out of three jumping elements in his life. When he made these mistakes, did you feel annoyed or understanding?
At first, of course, annoyance. Understanding came later. In the end, it was I, as a coach, who was obliged to do something so that the athlete would “turn on” earlier. But I couldn't.
- How many years have you been working as a coach in total?
From the age of eighteen. She started coaching children while still a student at the Krasny Vyborgets stadium. I myself once skated in Kolpino with Boris Aleksandrovich Steinikov. But she came to him too late, at the age of 11. She loved figure skating very much, but she lived in a village where there was no skating rink or sports sections. Mom couldn’t stand it, watching me freeze in front of the TV and look at the skaters: she bought me skates and took me to Kolpino.
They took me into the five-year group then, although I remember it didn’t bother me at all. People like me were not accepted into the section at all, but my mother persuaded the coach. She was, as she admitted later, sure that this would not last long.
- How did it turn out in the end?
I trained completely selflessly, fulfilling two or three level standards per year. And this despite the fact that in Kolpino we had only natural ice. I first saw artificial when I was 14 years old in St. Petersburg. Even then, I clearly understood two things: that I would not achieve great heights in figure skating and that I would never leave this sport.
At the Institute of Physical Education I was very lucky with the teacher -
Vladimir Alexandrovich Aparin. Thanks to him, I probably became a coach. He was the first to explain to me that there is always a way out of any situation. The main thing is to be able to find it, and not be afraid to try.And at the age of 19, in the second year of my work as a coach, a girl came to my group. Oksana Kazakova. I still remember my first feeling: I saw her, very small, and goosebumps ran down my back. Oksana was incredibly talented.
- And yet a few years later you gave it to another coach?
I didn't have any other option. I got married, gave birth to my first son, then my second, and simply dropped out of the profession for six years. But she gave Oksana into very good hands - Tatyana Kositsyna.
GREW UP NEXT TO MISHA AS A COACH
- When Kazakova became a champion with Artur Dmitriev at the Olympic Games in Nagano, did you feel any belated regret that life forced you to abandon such an athlete?
Anyone in that situation would probably experience similar feelings. I thought more about other things when I left my job. That I will definitely return to figure skating and will definitely achieve results. After all, it can be achieved in different ways: both at the initial stage of preparation and at the intermediate level. When I returned to the ice, started working at Kristall and made the first set, five-year-old Misha Kolyada and Sasha Stepanova were there.
- But Stepanov, unlike Kolyada, you also had to give into the wrong hands.
I never danced - I wasn't good at it. And I think everyone should be in their place, doing what they can. I am a singles skating coach. Sasha was simply created for dancing, and this was evident even when she was five years old. She is amazing, very talented, bright. And I’m incredibly happy that I gave it to Sasha Svinin and Ira Zhuk. That she has a wonderful partner with whom she will surely achieve results.
- I’ll tell you honestly, I’m surprised that you managed to bring Kolyada to the level of the national team. That during this time no one tried to take such an extraordinary athlete from you.
Of course, they tried, and more than once - there were many who wanted it. It’s just that the decision regarding his sports life was always made by Misha himself and his parents. And I am very grateful to them for this. I am not the person who will cling to an athlete, realizing that I can no longer give him anything. In the case of Stepanova, it was exactly like this: she had reached a certain level, it was necessary to decide where to move next. Well, yes, I could have kept her in my group for several more years, especially since I have always loved this girl madly and continue to love her. But why, if other trainers can give her what I can’t?
With Misha the situation is different. As a coach, I myself grew up next to him. I have a lot of fun with him, and not only in training. But also just go, for example, to see a new city, like we did in Bratislava.
- I must admit, I thought that in this way you were simply trying to control the athlete outside the rink as much as possible.
In no case. Misha is a wonderful boy. An excellent conversationalist, decent, smart, caring, independent. My children often even say that in our family we have not two, but three sons. And the youngest, that is, Misha, is the most beloved. His sons constantly correspond with him, worry about him, support him. This only makes me happy.
- Open and sympathetic people often have a very difficult time in big sports. Still, achieving an outstanding result requires several different qualities: rigidity, internal egoism.
You are absolutely right. Already now we sometimes have situations where before the start I begin to repeat the same word quite often: “Harder!” Before the free program in Bratislava, I also reminded Misha of this. While it’s difficult for me to talk about this topic, after all, much of what is happening to us now is just the first experience, but I really started to think about it.
- How difficult is it to walk a completely unfamiliar path for the first time and lead an athlete?
It must be difficult. But also very interesting. I very often remember Aparin’s words that in coaching there is always a way out of any situation. Through my own example, I realized that it is very important not to limit yourself to any dogmas. A coach must constantly come up with something. And be able to convey your thoughts to the student. This is probably even more important. Many people understand what and how to do. But not everyone knows how to convey it. So far I’ve managed to do it somehow. Although sometimes I don’t understand exactly how.
LET'S COOL A LITTLE BIT, AND THEN WE'LL SEE WHO WILL WILL
- Have you ever felt fear when taking the next step in your profession?
I was scared only once in my life - a year ago, when Misha broke his leg when he hit a pothole with the blade of his skate. The fracture turned out to be very complex, comminuted, with displacement, and when my athlete went on the ice for the first time after that injury, it was necessary to begin to restore everything bit by bit. Everything else is not fear. This is the drive.
- And quadruple jumps too?
Certainly. When Misha skates a clean program with all the jumps, I feel like the happiest person in the world. Even if it's just training. Learning to jump is very interesting, by the way.
- The trend that is currently observed in men's single skating leads to the fact that very soon an athlete will need to be able to perform three or four different quadruple jumps in order to remain competitive. Doesn't this scare you?
No. We have already mastered the Toe Loop and Salchow, although we are not yet including the second jump in the program. I understand, and those around me constantly tell me about this, that with a triple lutz like Kolyada’s, learning four revolutions is quite possible. Misha has a good jump height, good technique, he is a brave athlete, so I don’t see any big problems.
- How many other specialists work with Kolyada?
Besides me, this is our choreographer Olga Klyushnichenko.
- Don’t you think that modern figure skating has already largely moved away from the “coach - choreographer” scheme. And that the winners are often those who can afford to hire a physical training coach, a special training coach, a massage therapist, a physiotherapist... Do you at least sometimes feel the lack of extra hands?
But then everything is simple: the result appears, along with it new opportunities appear - you can already afford to ask for something, allow yourself more than before. Denis Lunin, who at one time was a dancer and skated with Zhuk and Pork, appeared in our group not long ago - he helps in working on the steps and, accordingly, on the tracks. Of course, I would like to be able to involve other specialists in training - I completely agree with you that now the result is often the result of the work of an entire team of professionals. This season, for example, for the first time my athletes began to work with a general physical training coach who came to our skating rink from athletics. The guys work out with him twice a week, and everyone really likes it. That is, we are slowly beginning to “grow” with like-minded specialists. I think that the brigade will soon be completely formed. In any case, now everyone is meeting us halfway.
- What does Mikhail himself want to achieve in sports?
I think Olympic gold. As I.
- Doesn’t it bother you that there is Yuzuru Hanyu and Javier Fernandez in figure skating?
Not at all. Now we'll have a little fun, and then we'll see who wins.
About five years ago, only a narrow circle of specialists knew about Mikhail Kolyada, and a slightly larger circle of admirers. Now the young skater is the hope of domestic men's figure skating and a worthy contender for world podiums.
Childhood and youth
The future skater was born on February 18, 1995 in the suburb of St. Petersburg - Kolpino. Mikhail is the eldest son in the family, he has two sisters and a brother whom he had to look after, so he can do everything around the house. One of the sisters also became interested in figure skating, but then the parents were unable to take their daughter to classes.
The Kolyada family loved sports: my mother was into skiing, my father was into hand-to-hand combat and karting. The head of the family planned to send his eldest son to the wrestling section, but he managed to realize his dream with his youngest.
Five-year-old Misha was brought to the skating rink by his mother, a figure skating enthusiast, but not with the goal of raising a champion, but simply to maintain health. The skater is still faithful to his first coach Valentina Chebotareva, such constancy is practically an isolated case.
Mikhail’s sports biography was not easy: practicing each element took a lot of energy, and the guy’s character was not great.
Now Mikhail is a model of restraint and composure, and he likes training much more than competitions, and on the way to becoming a figure skater he could kick a board and slam a door. The young man did not understand what to do in figure skating, and four times he tried to leave the skating rink completely. Only Chebotareva knows how much effort it took to raise a star, and according to the skater, if he were the coach, he would have kicked himself out. It’s not for nothing that Valentina Mikhailovna’s children say that it was as if there were three sons growing up in the family, with Mikhail being the favorite.
Figure skating
Mikhail made his debut on professional ice in the 2005-2006 season - he took fifth place in his age group at the Russian Championship. In 2008, he already participated in the Russian Cup, a year later he won in the Novice Boys category at the Tallinn Trophy in Estonia, and won a bronze medal at the St. Petersburg Championship 2010.
In 2010, Kolyada received an award for first place in the group at the Nikolai Panin Memorial, and won the youth category at two stages of the Russian Cup. Mikhail competed in the same group with future colleagues on the national team and Stanislav Kovalev. A year later, the skater participated in the qualifying competitions for the Junior World Championships, and in the finals of the Russian Cup he stopped one step away from the podium. At the same time, Mikhail competed at the first ever Junior Grand Prix of Australia, where he took 4th place, won first place in the group in the final of the Russian Cup and third in the Youth Spartakiad.
The 2012-2013 season was successful for the young athlete. Kolyada excelled at two stages of the Russian Cup and the N. Panin Memorial, won silver at the stage of the Cup of his home city, Russia and the Volvo Open Cup in Riga, and finished with sixth result at the junior grand prix in France. In 2013, Mikhail entered the Junior World Championships for the first time and loudly declared himself, because even with sixth place he was ahead of his colleagues from Europe.
The next season, Kolyada continued to storm the pedestals. The skater won bronze at the Grand Prix in Slovakia and the Gardena Spring Trophy in Italy, silver at the Grand Prix in Estonia and two stages of the Russian Cup, and gold at the first adult Dragon Trophy championship in Slovenia.
In 2014, during training, Mikhail drove into a pothole on the ice and received a serious injury - a broken ankle, so he was unable to participate in the qualifying competitions for the European Championship. Such injuries call into question his future career, but Kolyada was back on the ice within a month. In the new season, the skater won podiums at the stages of the St. Petersburg and Russian Cups, the Ondrej Nepela and Nikolai Panin Memorials, and the Austrian Ice Challenge.
The silver medal at the national championship opened the way for Mikhail to the rinks of the European and World Championships. At the continental championship the skater took 5th place in the overall standings, and at the debut world championship he took a sensational fourth place, surpassing his previous sporting achievements. It is worth saying that only the “bison” of world figure skating, Jin Boyan, were ahead of Kolyada, that is, theoretically, the final alignment of the tournament table had no chance. The Russian figure skater managed to prove the opposite.
Mikhail prepared for the World Championships in America with a group; the figure skater always admired the performance and confidence of its athletes. The incentive for further spirit was the rental of and. Kolyada’s performance with a not very rich program caused a storm of enthusiastic responses from both ordinary fans and professionals. The last thing that caught my eye was the absolute detachment, even a certain state of trance, with which Mikhail left the ice.
The next season, Mikhail fulfilled coach Valentina Chebotareva’s dream of raising a national champion. Even the advertisement that came on during the free program did not dampen the mood for victory. The first success at the Russian Championship was supplemented by silver at the World Team Trophy (Japan) and bronze at the European Championship; at the World Championships in Helsinki he entered the top eight.
At the final stage of the Grand Prix in Sapporo, Japan, Kolyada was the first Russian singles skater to attempt a quadruple lutz at an international competition. At the World Team Championship, Mikhail again improved his personal achievements and added a silver medal to his collection.
Personal life
There is no need to talk about Mikhail’s heartfelt secrets - the skater is young, and sport comes first for him. There is no hobby as such either, but in his free time Kolyada likes to play bowling or billiards, and if not for his passion for figure skating, Mikhail would have turned out to be a football player or table tennis player.
Modest Kolyada lives in St. Petersburg, in a hostel, and has not even purchased his own car. In the summer of 2016 on the page in "Instagram" The figure skater boasted a bachelor's degree from the Peter Lesgaft National University of Physical Education, Sports and Health, and continues to study for a master's degree.
It is difficult to imagine the short (Kolyada’s height is 167 cm), even fragile Mikhail on the military parade ground. Nevertheless, the skater paid his debt to the Motherland in the CSKA sports company. Private Kolyada served in Sochi.
Mikhail Kolyada now
At the first tournament of the 2017-2018 Olympic season - the Ondrej Nepela Memorial - the athlete pleased the fans with a gold medal.
At the Grand Prix stage in China, after the short program, Kolyada was the first of the domestic singles skaters to overcome the 100 point mark. At the end of 2017, Mikhail won the Russian Championship for the second time.
The athlete was also included in the national team for the European Championships, which took place in January 2018 in Moscow. Mikhail won bronze, losing to the debutant from Russia and now six-time European champion Javier Fernandez.
On February 12, 2018, at the Olympics in Korea, Russian figure skaters competed in team competitions. Many in absentia gave every chance of victory to athletes from Russia, but Mikhaila Kolyada’s short program on the first day of the competition was accompanied by falls and broken elements. Already in the free program, Mikhail rehabilitated himself, taking second place, but this did not allow him to compete for gold.
In individual competitions there were also some mistakes in both programs; as a result, Mikhail Kolyada took 8th place at his first Olympics.

Just five years ago, not a single sports journalist knew about the existence of a figure skater named “Mikhail Kolyada.” Mikhail himself had no idea about his imminent rise.
The young athlete's path to glory was not strewn with roses. Four times the young man wanted to leave the sport, and yet his passion for sports won out. Now the athlete has managed to become one of the best: Kolyada burst into the world of figure skating like a meteor.
Before takeoff
Of course, behind all achievements there is long work. Kolyada learned to work from childhood, because he is the eldest son in a large family. There were four children in the family, and the eldest had to look after the younger ones. And this makes a person responsible and strong.
The future figure skater Mikhail Kolyada appeared on February 18, 1995 in Kolpino (a suburb of St. Petersburg). Mikhail Kolyada’s parents always loved sports, although they did not become professional athletes. My father became interested in hand-to-hand combat, and my mother became interested in skiing. In addition, my mother and grandmother were fans of ice sports. The boy also liked watching the figure skaters perform. Therefore, when the boy grew up, he was assigned to a club associated specifically with figure skating. No one, however, dreamed of raising Misha to be a champion: he was sent to the section “so that he wouldn’t get sick.”
The first and only coach of the figure skater Kolyada was Valentina Chebotareva. They still cooperate today. It was Chebotareva who saw championship potential in her young ward.
At first it was not easy to learn: each element was given to Mikhail with incredible difficulty. Several times he wanted to drop everything and slam the door. And the teenager’s character was not easy (this is now Kolyada - a calm and balanced person). So it was not only his work and talents that led him to success, but also the wisdom of his coach.
As Chebotareva says in an interview, working with Mikhail becomes more interesting every year.

In big sports
Mikhail Kolyada is a singles skater; he has never felt the desire to dance in pairs. The first time he took part in big competitions was in the 2011-2012 season. In 2012, Mikhail became sixth at the Russian Junior Championships, and in 2013 he won gold there.
At the World Junior Championships, he received sixth place, but was ahead of all the skaters from Europe. Kolyada became the opening of the season in Russian figure skating.
In 2014, Mikhail won his first victory in adult sports - it was the Dragon Trophy tournament in Slovenia. However, overall the year was unsuccessful for Mikhail. At the Russian Championships, a skater withdrew from the race due to an untied shoelace. And in August, during training, he received a serious injury, which put his sports career in question.
When an athlete breaks his leg, it is not only painful, but also career-threatening. To return from a broken right ankle, I had to undergo a long series of operations. And yet the young man had no doubts about his future in sports. Just a month after the final operation, Kolyada was back on the ice!
And in 2015, Mikhail took first place at the tournament in Val Gardena.

What do experts say about the unexpected success of Mikhail Kolyada? They are at a loss. The luck of the twenty-year-old athlete, who suddenly became the best of the Russian singles skaters, was a surprise for Mikhail himself.
And the explanation is probably banal: Kolyada fanatically loves ice - and loves ice more than victory. He enjoys training and improving his art even more than performing.
The new 2015-16 season has already brought him prizes at both the Austrian Icechallenge tournament and the Seibst Memorial. At the Russian Championship, the young skater won second place, losing only to , and received a ticket to his first world championship. I had to compete with three dozen world leaders.
Already the short program put Mikhail in sixth place in the standings.

The free program became even more successful.

At the 2016 World Figure Skating Championships, Kolyada took an honorable fourth place, losing only to Yuzuru Hanyu and Jin Boyan. Fourth place is just one step away from the podium. And it is very likely that Mikhail will take this step in the coming years. He's twenty-one and still has a long way to go.
Kolyada, however, is quite modest about her result at the World Championships. “I danced with an A minus,” says the athlete.
The famous figure skater shows great modesty in his private life: he is a fourth-year student at one of the universities in St. Petersburg, lives in a student dormitory, and has not yet purchased a car. The main thing for Mikhail is the matter of life, sport.
True, the young athlete is not an ascetic or a bore. In his spare time, he knows how to have fun.
A very common sport in Russia is figure skating. Many people follow events related to this sport. This is how two-time champion of the Russian Federation figure skater Mikhail Kolyada attracted attention. People closely follow his achievements. However, in addition to success in sports, Misha’s fans are interested in his personal life. Kolyada does not like to talk a lot about herself and her personal life. He refers to the fact that at the moment Misha is only interested in sports and his further achievements. He doesn't have time for a relationship yet.
Mikhail Kolyada personal life: brief biography
In February 1995, the future Russian figure skating champion Mikhail Kolyada was born in St. Petersburg. He is the eldest child in the family. Misha has two more sisters and a brother. Since childhood, he looked after them and took part in their upbringing.
Misha's family are fans of sports. Mother loves skiing, father has achieved success in the field of hand-to-hand combat. Initially, the parents were going to send their eldest son to martial arts classes, but seeing Misha’s desire to be on the ice, they sent him to figure skating. Kolyada's first coach was Valentina Chebotareva.
Mikhail Kolyada personal life: figure skater career
At first, Misha found it quite difficult in sports. He had to put a lot of effort into practicing each new trick. This took a lot of strength and energy from the guy.
Mikhail's first achievement was his debut performance at the age of ten at the Russian Federation Championship. Three years later he competed for the Russian Cup. The following year he took first place in a competition in Estonia. In 2010, he received a bronze medal in his hometown. In the same year, he won in his age group at 2 stages in the fight for the Russian Cup.
Each new competition for the young man ended in success. He climbed the career ladder higher and higher. However, in 2014 Misha was injured. This was the reason that he did not go to the qualifying competitions for the European Championship. Thanks to his willpower, Kolyada returned to training literally a month later. Misha continued to participate in various competitions, which ended in success for him. Soon he fulfilled the dream of his coach Valentina and became the national champion for the first time in 2016.
Mikhail Kolyada personal life: now
Little is known about Misha's romantic relationships. He doesn't like to talk much about this topic. According to him, the first place for Misha is sports. Kolyada is still quite young and is not yet thinking about relationships. He recently received his bachelor's degree from the National University of Physical Education. Now he is actively continuing his studies and plans to obtain a master's degree.
At the beginning of 2018, he took part in the Olympics, which took place in Korea. He was one of the members of the Russian team. Unfortunately, this competition was less successful for the guy. He made quite a few mistakes during his performances. As a result, Misha received eighth place.
Silver medalist at the 2018 Olympic Games in the team competition.
Bronze medalist of the World Championship. Two-time bronze medalist of the European Championship.
Silver medalist of the world team championship. Champion of the Russian Federation.
Mikhail Kolyada was born on February 18, 1995 in the city of Kolpino, Leningrad region. The boy was the eldest child in a large family, where, in addition to Mikhail, three more children grew up. The parents of the future champion always loved sports, although they did not engage in it professionally. My father was into hand-to-hand combat, and my mother was into skiing.
When the boy was five years old, he was sent to the figure skating section. The first coach was Valentina Chebotareva. Each element of figure skating was difficult for Mikhail; more than once he wanted to quit the sport, but the coach managed to interest the young athlete and the results were not long in coming. The first time I took part in big competitions was in the 2012 season.
At the Russian Junior Championship in 2012, Mikhail became sixth, and in 2013 he won gold. At the World Junior Figure Skating Championships, Kolyada took sixth place, but was ahead of all the athletes from Europe.
Figure skater Kolyada became the opening of the season in Russian figure skating. He won his first victory in adult competitions in 2014 at the Dragon Trophy tournament in Slovenia.
In August 2014, during training, Kolyada received a serious injury, which could have put an end to his sports career. To return to professional sports after breaking his right ankle, he had to undergo a long series of operations. And just a month after the last operation, Mikhail returned to the ice.
In 2015, the Russian figure skater took first place at the tournament in Val Gardena. The next season of 2016 brought Kolyada prizes at the Austrian Icechallenge tournament and at the Seibst Memorial. At the Russian Championship, the young skater won second place, losing only to Maxim Kovtun, and received a ticket to his first world championship. I had to compete with three dozen world leaders. The short program put Mikhail in sixth place in the standings.
The free program became more successful. As a result, the Russian athlete took an honorable fourth place at the World Figure Skating Championships. At the end of January, Mikhail Kolyada competed in the Czech city of Ostrava at the European Championship and took a prize.
At the first tournament of the 2018 Olympic season, the Ondrej Nepela Memorial, the athlete pleased the fans with a gold medal. At the Grand Prix stage in China, after the short program, Kolyada was the first of the domestic single skaters to surpass the one hundred point mark. At the end of 2017, Mikhail won the Russian Championship for the second time.
At the Olympics in Pyeongchang, Korea, on February 12, 2018, Russian figure skaters, together with Mikhail Kolyada, won silver in the team competition.
The figure skater graduated from the National State University of Physical Culture, Sports and Health named after Peter Lesgaft in St. Petersburg.
