Valeri responds to the Vanessa Atler interview
“I am sorry Vanessa’s experience wasn’t positive during her time at WOGA. When asked to help during a difficult time for her, my intention as a coach was to help Vanessa achieve her dreams, not make her training situation more difficult,” says Liukin.

This is the basis for our approach in women’s gymnastics.”
