Elizaveta Sergeyevna "Liza"

Tuktamysheva

was born on the 17th of December 1996 in Glazov, Udmurtia,

Russian Federation.

The Ice Palace in Glazov, where Elizaveta trained.

Coached by Svetlana Veretennikova, Tuktamysheva appeared at competitions in Belgorod, where she was noticed by Alexei Mishin. Initially, he thought her technique was too incomplete and did not invite her into his group. A year later he saw her again and changed his mind due to her ability to jump high, but she had to rework the technique on all her jumps. Tuktamysheva's family could not afford to move to a big city, so she continued to train under S.Veretennikova, and regularly visited A.Mishin in Saint Petersburg.

                  Tuktamysheva  was  called  a  figure  skating prodigy    by Russian  media,  because  at  the  age  of  12  she  performed difficult jumps.

     

    Tuktamysheva is the 2013 European bronze medalist, 2011 Skate Canada champion, 2011 Trophée Eric Bompard champion, and the 2013 Russian national champion. On the junior level, she is the 2012 Youth Olympics champion, 2010 Junior Grand Prix Final silver medalist and 2011 World Junior silver medalist.

        A.Mishin said his student was Russia's "main hope for the gold medal at the Sochi Olympics“. As a fact, Elizaveta is a successful and promising figure skater. And Glazov, Udmurtia, Russian Federation are proud of Liza and wish her new records and medals!
