Starting conditions
It is advisable to join physical education from an early age. School programs are designed for children of average ability. For those who have clearly expressed abilities, there are sports sections. Such a system has developed in the distant past and fully justifies itself. Students always have the right to make their own choices. Yana Sergeevna Romanova was born on May 11, 1983 in an ordinary Soviet family. Parents lived in the city of Kurgan. My father worked at a trucking company. Mother worked as a kindergarten teacher.
In early childhood, Yana was no different from her peers. The girl grew up in good conditions. When the age approached, she was enrolled in school. Romanova studied well. Although there were not enough stars from the sky. The teaching staff is creative and active. Children were constantly attracted to participate in amateur performances and sports competitions.
