Fashion legislator in synchronous swimming
Long before synchronous swimming was renamed artistic, Tatiana Nikolaevna introduced a fashion for figurative compositions in group and solo performances.It was with the Pokrovskaya who began demanding to musical works that accompany the speech of the team. Music, costumes, emotions of girls during starts - this is a single integer formed according to the laws of the classical ballet school.
Symbol of Victory
Talisman at the national team training is considered Pitana Tatiana Nikolaevna - Yorkshire Terrier Daniel, who, together with the hostess, observes the work of athletes.
And as the signs "For good luck", the national team girls chose the "victorious" shirts of the green and pink coach, bought in honor of "gold" in Hong Kong in 1998. The celebrity admits that happy things have long been small in size. But girls believe in signs, and the Pokrovskaya has to abide by the tradition.
There is no medal in synchronous swimming
There is no personal medals for synchronous swimming in the biography of Tatiana Nikolaevna, and she does not love the pool. But there are Olympic "gold" and international awards in 27 athletes, whom she managed to prepare.The sports career of celebrities began with rhythmic gymnastics, where she went hoping that classes would be associated with a bit of drawing. A career in synchronous swimming in Pokrovskaya opened with the position of choreographer.

Performance is the gift of God
In difficult periods, Tatiana Pokrovskaya recalls that such performance for it for some reason is given over. In the mid-90s she tried to stay for a year and devote the time of personal life. However, I caught myself thinking that home care was something superfluous, and the soul requires activities when it is necessary to escape somewhere.
Work under the bayan
