Alexandra Trusova

Alexandra Trusova trained at CSKA Moscow, where she was part of Svetlana Sokolovskaya's group. The coaching staff
The key figure is Svetlana Sokolovskaya herself. In 2022, she received the title of Honored Coach of Russia. Her approach is often described as more "family-like" and caring compared to some other groups: she emphasized stability, long-term development, and managing psychological stress, which was especially important for an athlete with such an intense past. Other specialists worked alongside her in the group. For example, Vitaly Butikov, a former ice dancer himself (with Kristina Gorshkova), became a coach after retiring from competition. He actively assisted in working with students, including Mark Kondratyuk and Alexander Samarin. Also on the CSKA coaching staff during those years were Lilia Biktagirowa, Katarina Gerboldt, and other specialists. Group members
Besides Trusova, other notable figure skaters also trained in Sokolovskaya's group at various times:

Mark Kondratyuk is an Olympic bronze medalist in team competitions and European and Russian champion.
Alexander Samarin is a silver medalist at the 2019 European Championships and a prize winner at the Russian Championships.
Sofia Samodelkina also trained in this group.

Hair. This is perhaps the most noticeable detail. Alexandra hasn't cut her hair since childhood (she'd only trim the ends), so it's very long. In everyday life, she often wears it loose—neatly combed, sometimes pulled back into a low ponytail or a casual bun. As for color, for a long time, one of her signature looks was fiery red hair (she described the shade as "reddish-red"). But in the spring of 2025, she surprised fans and changed her look to platinum blonde. At the same time, in everyday life, she tries to protect her locks: she chooses ammonia-free dyes or toning masks rather than harsh products. Makeup. Here, she has a flexible approach. Alexandra has said that she almost always wears makeup in everyday life because fans often recognize her and ask for photos. But if she has eyelash extensions, she can afford to take a break from full makeup. Clothing. In her everyday life, Trusova values ​​comfort and simplicity. She doesn't chase trends, choosing what she feels comfortable in. Her everyday looks often feature dark tones—black and gray—but depending on her mood, she can also wear something bright or printed. Sporty pieces are a staple: jeans, sweatshirts, sweaters, and comfortable jackets. She also wears Detali. Another signature feature is large bags. Alexandra has noted that small ones simply don't fit anything: in addition to basic items (passport, cards, headphones, keys), she always carries a mini makeup kit and a first aid kit (pills for various occasions).

Now Sasha has fiery red hair!

Alexandra Trusova's character is truly vibrant and contradictory—it possesses both an iron will and aspects that make her very lively and relatable. She is single-minded. Trusova herself calls this her main quality. She doesn't like to stand still: she constantly sets new athletic goals and persistently strives to achieve them. It was this maximalism that helped her become the first in the world to master a number of difficult quadruple jumps. She is tenacious and persistent. In interviews, she admitted that even if something doesn't work out, she doesn't give up. For example, after an unsuccessful jump attempt, she would turn on music and try again and again until she succeeded. She is courageous (but with nuances). On the ice, she demonstrates fearlessness: she trusts her body, feels every muscle, and isn't afraid to fall. But in everyday life, she has very specific fears—for example, she's afraid of flying or riding extreme rides, because the outcome doesn't depend solely on her. She is straightforward. Trusova isn't prone to hypocrisy: she speaks honestly about her feelings, thoughts, and disappointments. A prime example is her emotions after winning silver at the Beijing Olympics: she was so upset that she even reacted emotionally to the loss. She's practical and rational. In some matters, she displays a cool, calculating approach. For example, in her career, she views changing coaches not as a betrayal, but as a logical step in her development: each coach has their own approach, and an athlete has the right to try where they feel most comfortable. Family is a priority. For Alexandra, loved ones are among her most important values. At one point, she even put family first and sport second.
