I am looking forward to “Battle of the Nations”-2015, to meeting up with old friends and making new ones. And I expect to see more fighters, more countries engaged.

I think that during this competition our team will have much harder fights, because we have a little more experience now. It will be our 3rd Championship.

I’m looking forward to fighting to test myself, to compete with the best and learn from them. And especially, I can’t wait to be involved in the new women’s category “All vs All”, because I like working in a team and hitting people with my mace :).

I’d like to think that I train hard! I train twice a week with the boys from my team, but as we have no real interest in “Triathlon” at the moment, I am training for buhurts.

I want to fight with the best, I think anyone representing either Russia, Ukraine or Poland will be a great opponent, as they all train very hard. I am also looking forward to meeting Yana Zabolotnikova again.
