INTERRUPTION TO SERVICE - APOLOGY

By
Well, folks  ... apologies for current silence ... I have been in hospital for the best part of the week with an injury to my right hand.  I am expecting it will be roughly another ten days before I'm fully operational again and able to post properly :-(

Have seen the interesting news about Russian Juniors on Facebook and promise to do some real analysis when I'm back properly.  Oh and there are the Europeans - well I've had to cancel my trip there sadly but then notice there's a chance worlds may move to Moscow - a dream of mine to travel there though I do wish Japan all the love in the world.

Back soon, dreaming every night of the beautiful Russians and hoping for great successes for them in coming days.

The State of Gymnastics - 'Soviet' or 'American' style?

By
Lioudmilla Tourischeva, 1972 Olympic All Around champion in artistic gymnastics, was held up as an example of the ideal Soviet citizen.  Here she coaches one of the Soviet Union's leading gymnasts from the 1980 Olympics, Natalia Shaposhnikova The Soviet Union had a genius for lifting sport beyond the textbook, injecting the aesthetic where previously only goals had been in plain view.   This was not only manifest in gymnastics.  Do you remember the ‘Russian Five’, the players who elevated ice hockey to a creative sporting display, mesmerising their opponents and spectators with intricate patterns of play, so rhythmic and entertaining that they could have been set to music?   In gymnastics, a sport where the aesthetic counted as much as the outcome, it was this ability to create spectacle out of competition that resulted in the most extraordinary athletic performances.  The ‘Golden Era’, most commonly understood to cover the years from 1952-1...
