• 1:05
  We get to know her today.
• 1:07
  Um, so, uh, you could again, and let's start from, uh, you, you've been born in
• 1:13
  Russia and uh, then you moved to Dubai.
• 1:16
  Yeah.
• 1:16
  Like, uh, 14 years ago.
• 1:18
  So, uh, can you tell me what, uh, brought you there originally?
• 1:23
  Well, it is a very nice, and it's a special story always for me, and it
• 1:27
  will be this personal story because it has something with, uh, law of
• 1:32
  Abstraction and I watched movie A Secret.
• 1:36
  Yeah.
• 1:36
  It's material beginning.
• 1:37
  I know.
• 1:39
  Yeah.
• 1:39
  So.
• 1:41
  Just, it's been like those days, the secret movie wasn't, um, like
• 1:45
  no free like this on YouTube.
• 1:47
  You can find everywhere those days, at least to me, maybe I never saw before.
• 1:51
  And I saw one successful man give it to a friend of mine,
• 1:54
  one like disk, really disk.
• 1:57
  And he said, watch it and do not let see no one.
• 2:02
  Mm-hmm.
• 2:03
  And of course there is nothing more important being that time than
• 2:06
  for me to reach that, that disc.
• 2:08
  Mm-hmm.
• 2:09
  I had to see one there and I was definitely, yes.
• 2:11
  And I was young.
• 2:12
  I was like, I think 20, maybe 20 or 21 years old.
• 2:18
  Mm-hmm.
• 2:18
  Not even 21 before 21.
• 2:21
  So, and then I made it.
• 2:22
  So I was just moving like there is like, you know, like you can't hear nothing.
• 2:27
  You don't sell nothing.
• 2:28
  You just a hundred percent focus.
• 2:31
  And well, it's similar, like if you're gonna, if you're racing,
• 2:35
  who knows who raised the know.
• 2:36
  Mm-hmm.
• 2:36
  So you remove everything else, you have one thing.
• 2:39
  So I watch this movie the same and from that days I used these instruments and
• 2:45
  one time I was driving in my country in Russia, I was driving a car and
• 2:50
  I hit the old and this God its name blah, you know, the holes, some bad
• 2:59
  condition road is Russian style.
• 3:00
  Mm-hmm.
• 3:01
  So I look at it and I said, I said I wish to be in Theam Road
• 3:08
  when there is nothing and that be amazing, like so flat and so nice.
• 3:14
  And I put it in my heart and that feeling.
• 3:17
  And then I put my eyes up and it was a stein board, like, you know,
• 3:21
  putting indicators like mm-hmm.
• 3:23
  For dry.
• 3:23
  And I look at it, it was kind of rusted.
• 3:26
  And I look and I said, look at that.
• 3:28
  How look angry that I wanna see an nice, beautiful signboard.
• 3:34
  And even if I don't know what written there, let me not even understand
• 3:38
  what's there, but I want to see that.
• 3:39
  Mm-hmm.
• 3:41
  Uh, and then it was cold.
• 3:42
  It's three in one, like, you know, three in one, I'm cold.
• 3:45
  I'm like, it's too much cold.
• 3:48
  You know, I wanna be somewhere where no winter existing really.
• 3:52
  Mm-hmm.
• 3:53
  And three things.
• 3:55
  I was having that special feeling.
• 3:57
  And I do have a time to time and I love it.
• 3:59
  It's my favorite.
• 4:00
  So some mystical happened that time and everything start to change.
• 4:06
  My life just put me in one direction, which is Dubai.
• 4:09
  And I was resisting.
• 4:10
  Mm-hmm.
• 4:11
  Literally resisting.
• 4:13
  I'm like, Dubai, no way.
• 4:15
  What I gonna do there?
• 4:16
  I don't speak English.
• 4:17
  I know nobody there.
• 4:18
  Nothing.
• 4:19
  And I heard, you know, things about it.
• 4:22
  It's not like I'm not gonna put myself there.
• 4:24
  Mm-hmm.
• 4:24
  Because that's what I heard sometimes before.
• 4:27
  And I'm like, no way.
• 4:28
  But live, play.
• 4:29
  A very nice joke.
• 4:30
  And it was a one way ticket.
• 4:33
  I will not go to, to really deep explanation, just
• 4:36
  no problem after problem.
• 4:37
  It's, it's like, it's like from movies to be honest, it's another story.
• 4:41
  Maybe one day again shared.
• 4:42
  That's special.
• 4:43
  Special time.
• 4:44
  Probably not, not today.
• 4:46
  So, and I had really no way to stay in Russia and I had to go
• 4:51
  somewhere and not come back.
• 4:54
  And guess what?
• 4:55
  It's been Dubai.
• 4:57
  I came to Dubai.
• 4:57
  I look man.
• 4:59
  Soundboards.
• 5:00
  Beautiful.
• 5:01
  I sold them somewhere.
• 5:02
  Well, it's in my head, the road.
• 5:05
  Amazing.
• 5:07
  Wow.
• 5:07
  And guess what?
• 5:08
  There is no winter.
• 5:09
  Mm-hmm.
• 5:10
  Imagine.
• 5:11
  Yeah.
• 5:11
  Other story.
• 5:12
  Yeah.
• 5:12
  That's really nice story about this.
• 5:15
  So you actually like, resist your dream and uh, then move, uh,
• 5:19
  to your, your dream, uh, city.
• 5:21
  That's really cool.
• 5:22
  Um, how Dubai change, uh, like your view on motorsports and uh, how is it
• 5:30
  compared to what you had in Russia?
• 5:33
  And I, I know that you also race in Europe and uh, so tell me more about this.
• 5:38
  Alright, nice question.
• 5:41
  Well, in Russia, I was a car lover.
• 5:45
  I knew nothing about motorcycle.
• 5:47
  Nothing.
• 5:48
  Not at all.
• 5:49
  So in Dubai, even not too soon, it's been like, I think about maybe
• 5:55
  five, four years I was in Dubai.
• 5:56
  I was doing war, then I did business.
• 5:59
  And then out nowhere my friend come up with a story like Katrina.
• 6:04
  Let's do, she was partner, um, with the beer salon hair before.
• 6:09
  Uh, so I said, let's do motorcycle, you know, journey.
• 6:12
  We go to America and we are gonna ride this road amazing over there.
• 6:16
  I'm like, what an idea.
• 6:18
  What an idea.
• 6:18
  It's so amazing idea.
• 6:20
  It wasn't mine.
• 6:22
  I'm like, yeah, okay.
• 6:22
  What's the plan?
• 6:24
  And she was like a main hit, you know, in plants.
• 6:27
  Okay.
• 6:27
  And so she said, very easy.
• 6:30
  We are gonna make a license.
• 6:32
  Okay.
• 6:33
  I'm like, okay.
• 6:33
  She was much bigger than me, very big lady.
• 6:37
  So she was about a hundred plus kilograms.
• 6:40
  I'm like, all right, I don't know how she gonna do it, but I will do it.
• 6:44
  Okay.
• 6:45
  So
• 6:49
  I'm doing it.
• 6:49
  So I knew nothing about it.
• 6:51
  I just went there.
• 6:53
  How very Well, I bit early than that.
• 6:57
  I had bad days and I was listening some videos, which is might help me to go
• 7:02
  out from my mood, which is, was so down.
• 7:05
  And the video said you take a list, uh, like a paper and pen
• 7:10
  and write down a hundred points.
• 7:12
  Mm-hmm What you wanna do, but don't think about it.
• 7:17
  And I'm like, alright.
• 7:18
  So I did it.
• 7:19
  It's been maybe months back then I moved, moved my house.
• 7:22
  Nothing.
• 7:22
  But when we start, this lady and me, we did driving license for a motorcycle.
• 7:27
  I was knew, I knew nothing.
• 7:29
  I crashed.
• 7:30
  First day, went to the wall, nothing.
• 7:32
  I knew absolutely it.
• 7:34
  Then I come back home, I found this paper and it's written on the middle,
• 7:39
  written, I wanna ride motorcycle and I wanna do extreme sport.
• 7:42
  Mm-hmm.
• 7:43
  I knew nothing about it.
• 7:44
  I was so sure.
• 7:45
  Ideas or it's not mine, you know, so it's me there.
• 7:48
  That's how magic happened, basically.
• 7:49
  Mm-hmm.
• 7:50
  So it's been somewhere inside me, but I knew probably nothing subconsciously.
• 7:55
  So that's why when you write down something fast, you don't
• 7:58
  analyze, you don't put a border, which is our head sometimes.
• 8:01
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:02
  Very often you, you just, you know, put both fast, fast, fast, fast.
• 8:05
  And the subconscious will be, you know, open up and it'll be speaking
• 8:09
  things, which is, you don't know.
• 8:10
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:10
  Right.
• 8:11
  That's what happen.
• 8:12
  Interesting.
• 8:12
  So it's probably been way like from that I believe it's been
• 8:17
  from God, it's the destiny.
• 8:19
  And that's came a time.
• 8:21
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:21
  That's it.
• 8:22
  And I need a license.
• 8:24
  So I cannot say how I knew it before Russia, because I
• 8:27
  knew it from Dubai, but from.
• 8:30
  Then I'm training.
• 8:33
  I train every day, man, every day.
• 8:36
  Then I became ready for some reason, for a challenge, for a championship.
• 8:40
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:41
  Then I start to race, and then I discover Europe, main places
• 8:46
  in Europe and then Russia.
• 8:48
  So I saw it little bit later.
• 8:49
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:49
  I can compare, but, but it's not like people might expect, you know?
• 8:54
  Yeah.
• 8:54
  So it was amazing.
• 8:56
  Yes.
• 8:56
  It's beautiful.
• 8:57
  Mm-hmm.
• 8:58
  But, but mobile sports Exactly.
• 9:00
  Particularly bikes is on the back.
• 9:04
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:05
  Where in the back, yes.
• 9:06
  Where everywhere.
• 9:07
  Probably first or many, many Where?
• 9:10
  Dubai.
• 9:10
  And it's my favorite country.
• 9:12
  I do it.
• 9:13
  Beautiful country everywhere, leading, but for some reason, motorcycle,
• 9:18
  particularly in Dubai, is not at the first, it is not leading.
• 9:23
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:23
  Not at all.
• 9:24
  Yeah.
• 9:24
  We have Qatar, in Qatar, we have motor gp, um, like 35 racetrack.
• 9:30
  Mm-hmm.
• 9:31
  If, let's say from GCC countries, yes.
• 9:33
  But in Dubai, we don't have a truck, which is certified for auto GP
• 9:37
  yet, but I believe we will do it.
• 9:39
  Yeah.
• 9:40
  I believe, yeah.
• 9:41
  That, that's really interesting so far.
• 9:42
  Uh, because, uh, you, you know, in my, in my point of view, I
• 9:46
  see that Dubai is really a good development in developing, uh, racing.
• 9:51
  Uh, so here's a lot of, uh, marathons like, uh, long endurance races, uh, with
• 9:58
  GT cars and uh, something like this.
• 10:00
  Yep.
• 10:00
  So I felt that maybe, uh, motor sport also, um, like not on
• 10:06
  the back as you said, um, but I hope it's going to develop, uh.
• 10:11
  With some time because if, uh, people getting into it, more people, um, like
• 10:16
  getting into the sports and it's going to grow anyway, I'm sure it'll be a right
• 10:22
  time for that and I will do it properly.
• 10:25
  Mm-hmm.
• 10:25
  I'm sure however, just there are a little bit gap, I believe where is a
• 10:32
  people not obeying enough regime of safe riding, uh, style here by, in the
• 10:40
  motorcycle and is developing, uh, you know, likely not pleasant opinion and in
• 10:47
  generally, uh, motorcycle biking style.
• 10:52
  Mm-hmm.
• 10:52
  In general, if you say I'm riding motorcycle over there is.
• 10:57
  People are paying it.
• 10:58
  Yes, that's true.
• 10:59
  Mm-hmm.
• 10:59
  It's maybe being so far, many, most of the countries, I believe,
• 11:03
  but yeah, it's, I have to say it, we, we, we need a proper place.
• 11:09
  So proper, we need a bit of support that could have saved from the government.
• 11:13
  Mm-hmm.
• 11:13
  It's, it's, honestly, it's very hard.
• 11:15
  I am a motorcycle coach today.
• 11:18
  I'm training people.
• 11:19
  I believe I'm touching people lives and, you know, helping them.
• 11:23
  Mm-hmm.
• 11:23
  For some reason, PE people need always, not just like that.
• 11:27
  It's always, people need each other, so, and I believe I, I'm kind of
• 11:31
  that bridge from, you know, being a bridge from human to what they need.
• 11:35
  Mm-hmm.
• 11:36
  Like, like that.
• 11:37
  Yeah.
• 11:37
  From the help or maybe fulfilling their dreams.
• 11:41
  Sometimes it's a safety, whatever.
• 11:43
  So it's, it's a bit difficult for me to, um, how to say, to, to, to grow, let's
• 11:51
  say, to touch more, uh, souls and hearts.
• 11:54
  Mm-hmm.
• 11:55
  Uh, by doing it pretty so much alone.
• 11:58
  I do have a lot of partners, companies with who we do collaboration mm-hmm.
• 12:01
  Support each other.
• 12:02
  Mm-hmm.
• 12:02
  But again, it's on the ground floor, it's not on government level.
• 12:07
  Yep.
• 12:08
  So, yeah.
• 12:09
  That, that's the difficulty.
• 12:10
  Land is a bit expensive and, you know, this is the main thing so far.
• 12:14
  Mm-hmm.
• 12:15
  So far.
• 12:15
  The rest is, everything is, uh, amazing.
• 12:18
  But I never stop.
• 12:19
  It's been from 2020, no, 2021 actually to today.
• 12:25
  It's a full-time coach.
• 12:26
  Mm-hmm.
• 12:27
  No part-time, nothing.
• 12:28
  It's a completely full-time coach.
• 12:30
  Even summer today, my first summer, I'm out of Dubai, but I
• 12:34
  never stopped before, you know?
• 12:35
  Mm-hmm.
• 12:35
  Yeah.
• 12:36
  That's awesome.
• 12:37
  Yeah.
• 12:38
  Also, I know that, that you race, uh, like in many, uh, countries, and, uh,
• 12:44
  can you tell me which podium, uh, finish felt the most special to you and why?
• 12:50
  And, and then we'll move to actually to coaching because it's
• 12:53
  really interesting also how you switch from racing to coaching.
• 12:56
  Coaching.
• 12:57
  Sure.
• 12:58
  Well, yes, it's a, it's a very nice special to me, um, event.
• 13:04
  I can say one of them.
• 13:06
  It's first of course, right?
• 13:08
  Mm-hmm.
• 13:08
  First race, one of them.
• 13:10
  But something else happened in Italy in general, and the
• 13:16
  feeling I've been searching.
• 13:18
  Again and again, and it's never come back.
• 13:22
  I found out over there a feeling came to me during the race, and
• 13:28
  it's never come back after that.
• 13:30
  Imagine what happened.
• 13:31
  I'll tell you, I didn't share, by the way, this story.
• 13:33
  Mm-hmm.
• 13:33
  Like this, like in public.
• 13:36
  I never did it before.
• 13:38
  I think so.
• 13:39
  Forgive me people if I forget something, but I don't really remember.
• 13:43
  I shared That's okay.
• 13:44
  But I did.
• 13:45
  But I did share people like this face to face.
• 13:48
  Yes.
• 13:49
  Uh, a feeling is very interesting, like being from so
• 13:52
  stressed, I felt I'm not ready.
• 13:54
  And I also felt maybe I will, I will back off.
• 13:57
  Imagine.
• 13:57
  Yeah.
• 13:58
  I had that feeling.
• 13:59
  So maybe not today, you know, who cares?
• 14:03
  But then I imagine like, all right, imagine Katrina.
• 14:05
  I talk to myself like that.
• 14:07
  Imagine if you did not do it past time and then you look back
• 14:13
  and you nothing you can change.
• 14:14
  Mm-hmm.
• 14:15
  How would you feel about it?
• 14:16
  And I'm like, no way.
• 14:17
  No way.
• 14:18
  No, no, no way.
• 14:19
  And I did, so I raced, of course I jumped to the race after this thinking.
• 14:23
  Mm-hmm.
• 14:24
  So, and then what happened while I'm racing, it's like, um, we have
• 14:28
  first corner and that corner, and that then rabata this corner I know.
• 14:32
  Later.
• 14:32
  And another story, I'll tell you why.
• 14:34
  Anyway, so, so what happens is all of a sudden motorcycle became all wait list.
• 14:43
  Mm-hmm.
• 14:43
  I could, it's all, it's in any way.
• 14:45
  Very light.
• 14:46
  Uh, it's very hard, very heavy.
• 14:47
  And the breaking guess.
• 14:48
  But on, on from January the ride, it's light.
• 14:52
  Yeah.
• 14:52
  So far.
• 14:53
  If you, of course, but all of a sudden it's a new feeling.
• 14:57
  It's light in a way that it is floating above the ground.
• 15:03
  That is completely like usually I feel every grip, I feel,
• 15:07
  every angle, even every stone.
• 15:10
  Mm-hmm.
• 15:10
  But this time, nothing like that.
• 15:12
  This time there is no grip at all.
• 15:15
  I don't feel touch.
• 15:16
  So, and it is above the racetrack?
• 15:18
  Mm-hmm.
• 15:19
  Maybe two meters or two and a half meters if I have to say it.
• 15:22
  So it's literally up.
• 15:24
  Mm-hmm.
• 15:25
  Right.
• 15:25
  It's the first thing.
• 15:26
  And then what happened?
• 15:29
  The sound in my head disappeared completely.
• 15:32
  Plan in my head disappeared.
• 15:34
  Even I didn't remember.
• 15:36
  Next will be right or left nothing.
• 15:38
  Even the gear which gear, nothing which lap.
• 15:41
  Mm-hmm.
• 15:42
  Completely nothing.
• 15:43
  So that's not normal, you know, for racing.
• 15:46
  You, you are still strategic.
• 15:48
  So focused.
• 15:49
  But I was focused but nothing.
• 15:52
  So I only see myself past and it is something else.
• 15:55
  God knows what and don't know what.
• 15:57
  So all of these qualities, even I missed the code.
• 16:01
  Like I missed the gear because I'm like, oh really?
• 16:03
  This will be right now.
• 16:05
  Okay, so gear should be go up, like go down sheet.
• 16:08
  Mm-hmm.
• 16:08
  And raising its opposite.
• 16:11
  And I managed to do it and cover the mistakes, everything.
• 16:15
  And guess what, when I finished the race, I was like the biggest, my
• 16:20
  personal lap time ever, I did it.
• 16:22
  Mm-hmm.
• 16:23
  Wow.
• 16:23
  So I was the path that I could believe that time to my time.
• 16:26
  Yeah.
• 16:26
  Not over, not overall.
• 16:28
  So.
• 16:28
  It was a state of mind, unbelievable.
• 16:31
  And I asked so many riders, guys, did you have anything like that?
• 16:35
  What, what?
• 16:35
  What I ask all riders experience.
• 16:38
  Like many people, I ask nobody, nobody find this.
• 16:43
  And they said, yes.
• 16:44
  I felt every stone.
• 16:46
  It's not about every stone, it's about there enough stone.
• 16:49
  It's about your two, almost three meters up, you know?
• 16:53
  Mm-hmm.
• 16:53
  Stone, nothing.
• 16:55
  So I thought, unfortunately I didn't find, um, uh, nobody who,
• 16:59
  who experience same till day to day.
• 17:01
  Maybe somebody from people who was watching today, us, maybe they
• 17:05
  command somewhere, somebody who had the same, I would literally wanna
• 17:09
  talk to this person, connect, and we know we have things to discuss.
• 17:13
  Yeah.
• 17:15
  Wow, that's really magical story about your race.
• 17:19
  And, uh, it is.
• 17:20
  Yeah.
• 17:20
  That's why it's really special for you.
• 17:22
  So I feel you about this.
• 17:24
  It's, um, yeah.
• 17:25
  You know what, I, I want podium by the way.
• 17:27
  Yeah.
• 17:27
  If I was there that day, I had to point the podium, I have to mention.
• 17:33
  Yeah.
• 17:34
  Yeah.
• 17:35
  I think I still, you know, still remember how I won, uh, one of
• 17:38
  the first races in, in cars.
• 17:40
  Uh, I remember a guy, uh, been crying after this, uh, because
• 17:44
  he, he won the championship.
• 17:47
  Uh, but there was like, uh, the special event, uh, in the end
• 17:50
  of the season and I won this.
• 17:52
  And, uh, he's been crying.
• 17:54
  Oh.
• 17:55
  And then, yeah, I was like nine years old, 10 years old, something like this.
• 18:02
  It's happy and sad, you know?
• 18:03
  Yeah.
• 18:04
  Happy because it's very happy.
• 18:06
  Of course.
• 18:06
  And sad because, you know, someone was crying, but it's
• 18:09
  what Well, I'm proud of you.
• 18:10
  Yeah.
• 18:11
  Thank you.
• 18:12
  Uh, so let's move how you, uh, like, uh, change from, uh, being in racing, uh,
• 18:19
  racing motorcycles to actually coaching.
• 18:23
  So what lead you to do this decision in your life?
• 18:26
  Okay, this time will be, no, it'll be really normal.
• 18:30
  Oh, alright.
• 18:33
  Very normal story.
• 18:34
  Okay.
• 18:35
  Uh, it was a COVID, very simple COVID time.
• 18:39
  My, my last race I was racing, uh, no, no, pretty last, but the last one.
• 18:45
  Complete lost.
• 18:46
  I had to pull myself out because we couldn't, we had to say our.
• 18:52
  Supporters, people who comes fans, we have to tell them you cannot come.
• 18:58
  And it was my principle, maybe like I, I, I lost the position overall.
• 19:03
  Oh no, the, the final championship.
• 19:06
  I moved to be third, but I was supposed to be second or overall it was really, like,
• 19:11
  for me, achievement to be second is hard, to be honest, because the only boys were
• 19:16
  there and they're all mostly experienced.
• 19:18
  I was the only lady to be second or it's, it's, it's a big thing to be honest.
• 19:22
  And I had to make a decision that I cannot come and tell guys, do not
• 19:29
  come, you know, don't come here.
• 19:30
  You'll be knocking the doors, but no, no security, you cannot come.
• 19:35
  Mm-hmm.
• 19:35
  So for me it was a kind of.
• 19:36
  You know, human being and principle.
• 19:38
  Maybe some people can tell me now, you know, it's a sport and you have
• 19:41
  to go on people heads or whatever.
• 19:42
  So you're not a good sportsman.
• 19:43
  Maybe, you know, maybe.
• 19:45
  But for me it was more, more of humanity and respect people who really, you know.
• 19:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 19:51
  And I did so much show that it's last race, you know, there's so many
• 19:54
  people wanted to come read so many.
• 19:58
  And I just couldn't do that.
• 19:59
  And I pulled myself out last race and I lost the position became
• 20:03
  third automatically, and then COVID appeared a hundred percent.
• 20:07
  A hundred percent.
• 20:09
  And well, no sponsorships, nothing.
• 20:12
  I had to survive.
• 20:13
  I found a job, yes.
• 20:15
  I was sales.
• 20:16
  Later on, I said, look what I gonna do now We are living in Dubai.
• 20:20
  I have to work because not, no event is gonna happen.
• 20:23
  Mm-hmm.
• 20:23
  And during the COVID, I joined VMW.
• 20:26
  Uh, so I was sales work there for a year almost.
• 20:31
  And then.
• 20:33
  Things like maybe me.
• 20:36
  Maybe what?
• 20:36
  It was just not for me.
• 20:38
  I think so.
• 20:39
  Maybe God knows better why I think it's a God plan still because
• 20:43
  everything was so much unfair to me.
• 20:45
  What happened as well, that job, I'm like, God, why think
• 20:47
  that on unfair, you know, to me.
• 20:50
  So, but then, so I resigned from them and I sat down and
• 20:55
  I said, what I gonna do now?
• 20:57
  You know, and I was so much tired to worry the cha like, you know,
• 21:01
  the payments here and there, what I gonna do, how I gonna manage now?
• 21:04
  And I do allow bikes here, but what, how can I make living out of this?
• 21:09
  And.
• 21:10
  Some of my friends call and say, Katrina, you know, my friend need help.
• 21:14
  Could you help, please?
• 21:15
  I'm like, look, okay, I'm available.
• 21:16
  I'm not working.
• 21:18
  You know?
• 21:18
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:18
  Let's try it.
• 21:19
  So we went to the parking and I saw what I just, you know, few
• 21:24
  touches, ta, ta, ta explained.
• 21:26
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:27
  I saw Miracle.
• 21:28
  I saw really miracle, unbelievable results.
• 21:32
  And I'm like, how that possible?
• 21:34
  I put my knee down one and a half months, this person put it in one hour.
• 21:39
  How that possible?
• 21:41
  Mm-hmm.
• 21:41
  You know, it was like a training for me.
• 21:43
  It was a really like magic.
• 21:46
  And he was really happy.
• 21:48
  And, and then another person, another person, and all things felt
• 21:52
  by itself that, all right, mm-hmm.
• 21:54
  I'm gonna coach and I'm gonna do this full time.
• 21:57
  And well, it's, people are happy.
• 21:59
  I'm doing the right thing.
• 22:01
  I'm not living only for myself.
• 22:03
  I do something good in this life.
• 22:04
  That's what I feel.
• 22:05
  And of course, it's, it's also rewarding.
• 22:07
  Yeah.
• 22:07
  So that's the story, the part, yeah.
• 22:10
  That, that's true.
• 22:11
  You know, during COVID, I think a lot of people changed their, uh,
• 22:14
  direction of the life, uh, really.
• 22:17
  Mm-hmm.
• 22:17
  Like, uh, in the, uh, like, uh, the, in, in the hard way.
• 22:23
  Uh, so I changed it too.
• 22:24
  Uh, I've been into racing and then unfortunately in 2000, uh,
• 22:29
  15, so I've been into program.
• 22:31
  We had plans, you know, till the formal one in all the series, uh mm-hmm.
• 22:36
  Free in Spain.
• 22:37
  Uh, but unfortunately Asna Motor Sports, uh, the team which, uh, support me in
• 22:42
  this, uh, they just, uh, decided to shut down the program in Kazakhstan.
• 22:47
  And, uh, then I've been, you know, working in some racing, uh,
• 22:52
  club in, in Moscow, and I mm-hmm.
• 22:55
  Moved here from El Matty.
• 22:57
  Mm-hmm.
• 22:57
  Uh, and you know, I just, I started from scratch, like you said, about motorcycles,
• 23:03
  so I just knew nothing in PCs, in some racing hardware and all the stuff.
• 23:08
  So I started to learn, uh, from scratch.
• 23:11
  Uh, also coach people, so.
• 23:15
  From time to time, uh, in summer racing, uh, and then, uh, when COVID hits.
• 23:21
  So I've lost my job in Moscow, uh, because all the malls just shut down completely.
• 23:27
  Yeah.
• 23:27
  And, uh, we, with my husband decided that, Hey, let's try like streaming.
• 23:32
  Let's try to jump in.
• 23:34
  And I started to stream and, uh, yeah, for five years already, a full-time streamer.
• 23:39
  Amazing.
• 23:41
  Amazing.
• 23:41
  And doing this.
• 23:42
  And it's, it's really rewarding because, you know, it's really
• 23:45
  cool that you, uh, can see people, they coming to watch your race.
• 23:49
  You can communicate with them.
• 23:51
  It's really cool.
• 23:51
  So yes, actually the same as you said about coaching.
• 23:55
  Uh, it's, it's really nice to inspire people, uh, because
• 23:58
  some people come exactly to.
• 24:00
  Like, Hey, what, what to get to start with, uh, some racing, um, how to start.
• 24:06
  And you, you tell people about this and then they, uh, coming to,
• 24:10
  to you after months and they're like, Hey, I bought the new wheel.
• 24:14
  Hey, I just jump in.
• 24:15
  I'm having a lot of fun.
• 24:16
  Thank, thank you so much.
• 24:17
  Yeah, it's it's really cool.
• 24:18
  Exactly.
• 24:20
  Um, well, my favorite feedbacks when I say I'm receiving a phone call
• 24:24
  or a message and you know, I hear Trina, you know what happened, you
• 24:29
  know, when they start like this, I'm like, oh, wow, it's this message.
• 24:32
  Probably gonna laugh.
• 24:33
  I put a star on them and WhatsApp to see them, you know,
• 24:36
  forever, but I have bad mood.
• 24:38
  I'm gonna listen.
• 24:38
  And they said, you know, Katrina, I, that corner, if you know, I did
• 24:43
  what you tell me, that was amazing.
• 24:45
  Or another thing can be, you know, Katrina today, thanks God, you, you know,
• 24:50
  I get saved because we, you know, did.
• 24:53
  Mm-hmm.
• 24:53
  1, 2, 3, 4. These moments, it's for me, everything like I feel Yes.
• 24:59
  You know, so I'm living for true, like I'm doing the right thing.
• 25:06
  I love what I do and I wanna eat more.
• 25:09
  I wanna know how to come the planet.
• 25:11
  Uh, yeah, like that.
• 25:13
  Yeah.
• 25:13
  It's real cool.
• 25:14
  You know, when you inspire people, when you, uh, like can give advice, which going
• 25:19
  to make their life safer and, uh, they're going to enjoy like riding more motorcycle
• 25:25
  or being in some racing and enjoy it more.
• 25:28
  So it's really cool.
• 25:29
  Correct.
• 25:30
  Correct, correct.
• 25:32
  Agree with you.
• 25:34
  Uh, can you tell me about your tr uh, training program?
• 25:37
  So, um, what's different?
• 25:39
  Uh, because you, you got different people.
• 25:41
  Yeah.
• 25:41
  Uh, like beginners.
• 25:43
  You got, uh, I think kids also, uh, and, uh, like professional dri uh,
• 25:49
  professional riders, uh, as well.
• 25:51
  So can you tell me about, uh, what's the difference between their programs,
• 25:55
  uh, and, uh, like how you train them?
• 25:59
  Okay.
• 26:00
  Well, you write Absolutely.
• 26:02
  We have kids.
• 26:04
  Before I was just lawn and I got a team, so I speak, we okay.
• 26:07
  Mm-hmm.
• 26:08
  Yeah.
• 26:08
  Okay.
• 26:09
  Uh, yeah.
• 26:10
  So now some are, we are traveling here and there, but of course we have also, uh.
• 26:15
  So trainers and so wait.
• 26:18
  We have kids.
• 26:19
  They're so amazing and cute.
• 26:22
  The program I, I, I adore to train kids.
• 26:27
  Uh, it's very special for me for some reason.
• 26:30
  So it's cute bikes.
• 26:31
  The, everything is so cute and amazing, but it's a lot of
• 26:34
  responsibilities, of course.
• 26:36
  And I always said to train on one kid, it's like, so.
• 26:41
  Slash three adults.
• 26:43
  Mm-hmm.
• 26:43
  Like be, maybe, maybe for me at least, you know, because I put
• 26:46
  everything in it, the, the prediction, the i, i just in them, you know?
• 26:53
  Mm-hmm.
• 26:53
  A hundred percent.
• 26:54
  Mm-hmm.
• 26:54
  It's, it's not easy.
• 26:55
  Not at all.
• 26:56
  But, uh, parallel.
• 26:58
  Anyway, so, so kids, uh, we have female, uh, programs because also
• 27:04
  we're in, you know, Muslim country.
• 27:08
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:08
  The, it's a cultural, yeah.
• 27:10
  So we, I, this time I can say I mm-hmm.
• 27:13
  Because other trainers are men, so I can, I, I have a lot of ladies.
• 27:18
  Yes.
• 27:19
  It's make things are much more comfortable for many ladies.
• 27:21
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:22
  When you know, a lady to late, two lady, and especially for their
• 27:24
  husbands, it is amazing, comfortable.
• 27:28
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:28
  So yeah, ladies, then we have a normal general beginners and advance, and we
• 27:34
  have also, not just advance, we do have.
• 27:39
  Extreme classes, but I'm not really advertising this.
• 27:42
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:43
  Because I'm more into safe safety, but it's only for those people
• 27:48
  who gonna do this in any way.
• 27:50
  Mm-hmm.
• 27:51
  So I'm never pronouncing this whole.
• 27:53
  Doing this in any way.
• 27:54
  But after a long time saying, I always put them, come on.
• 27:58
  I do succeed in 90%, by the way.
• 28:00
  90% by talking.
• 28:01
  I said, look, why do you need a wheelie?
• 28:04
  You know the wheelie?
• 28:04
  Yeah, I know.
• 28:05
  It's cool.
• 28:05
  But come on, you know, if you are gonna do a leaning corners,
• 28:09
  you'll, you know, these things are.
• 28:11
  Something really needed.
• 28:13
  And it is not, you're gonna be punished by law because you're
• 28:16
  gonna do things like mm-hmm.
• 28:17
  You know, wheelies, it's, it's prohibited in the streets.
• 28:20
  Come on.
• 28:20
  And it is a lot risky.
• 28:22
  For what?
• 28:22
  For a couple of pictures?
• 28:23
  No, you, no.
• 28:26
  It's so much risk.
• 28:27
  No need.
• 28:28
  Okay.
• 28:28
  No need.
• 28:29
  So, but 10% I'm losing it.
• 28:32
  Yeah, sometimes.
• 28:33
  But mainly 90% people follow advice and when they do truck riding, it's
• 28:39
  like, you, it is very good for your.
• 28:42
  In general, be a good rider.
• 28:44
  It does not mean you're gonna go on the streets, put a knee down.
• 28:47
  It's a, it's a rule number one.
• 28:48
  We are not doing this on the streets.
• 28:50
  Never, never, never, never, ever.
• 28:52
  We not do this, but we're gonna go and see the limits.
• 28:55
  So we wanna put the knee down because we wanna see a limit, what
• 28:58
  gonna happen in this situation.
• 29:00
  Mm-hmm.
• 29:00
  And we're gonna do it together in the full safety gears.
• 29:03
  We're gonna be in proper place and we're gonna be using right tools for that.
• 29:06
  Not huge things to discover and hurt themselves.
• 29:09
  Yeah.
• 29:10
  Uh, so, so far it's, it's a, the training.
• 29:14
  I don't know.
• 29:14
  Lately we have a lot new riders.
• 29:17
  Some people said, Katrina been, I'm finally ready.
• 29:20
  I'm following you for three years, you know, on my page, three
• 29:23
  years and something happened.
• 29:26
  Now I'm ready.
• 29:28
  So,
• 29:31
  so, but, and like that and gifts also.
• 29:34
  Somebody they said, all right, I don't know what to give to now let's
• 29:38
  say that person are gonna purchase, I don't know, five, 10 classes.
• 29:43
  Somebody do one only to try.
• 29:45
  Uh, yeah.
• 29:45
  This program as well also very useful.
• 29:48
  It's really nice, uh, that you, for safety side of course, uh, because you
• 29:53
  know so many writers, especially on streets, they sometimes doing some crazy
• 29:58
  stuff, uh, which is dangerous for them and also for other people around them.
• 30:03
  Like who also in motor, on motorcycles or either in the car.
• 30:07
  Um, so I think you're doing really good, uh, thing for.
• 30:11
  Everybody, uh, you know, uh, like coaching the safety and, uh, that
• 30:17
  actually racing should happen only on racing track and, uh, exactly.
• 30:21
  Yeah.
• 30:21
  This is, uh, what I've been, uh, telling to people as well, uh, because
• 30:27
  it's, it's really funny, uh, when you in racing, uh, here's some weird
• 30:31
  questions, um, by people who has been, uh, like interviewing you and they
• 30:36
  like, Hey, do, do you race on streets?
• 30:39
  I'm like, no, I'm, I'm for safety.
• 30:41
  Come on.
• 30:41
  I'm just, uh, yeah.
• 30:43
  You know, I'm, come on.
• 30:45
  If I in a car, I'm trying to be safe, safe for everybody and I respect rules
• 30:51
  and uh, everything and, uh, yeah, exactly.
• 30:54
  Racing should happen only on racing track because we got like
• 30:58
  safety zones, uh, where you can fall and not get any injuries.
• 31:02
  And, uh, also that's.
• 31:05
  Like the track to try, uh, different things.
• 31:08
  Exactly, yeah.
• 31:09
  It's real, really good.
• 31:10
  It's like, it's like a ren to ask Ren for example, or Mc Tyson, like,
• 31:16
  are you fighting on the streets?
• 31:18
  Yeah, true.
• 31:20
  Can you imagine these guys, they will go and, you know,
• 31:23
  fight on the streets with who?
• 31:26
  Are you serious?
• 31:26
  No.
• 31:27
  No, no, man.
• 31:30
  I'm not gonna do that.
• 31:31
  No.
• 31:32
  Can you tell me a bit more, uh, about how is it for you
• 31:35
  to be a coach for, for girls?
• 31:38
  Uh, because I think it's a bit different.
• 31:40
  Yeah.
• 31:41
  And, um, in some racing, for example, I found that, uh, for
• 31:45
  girls it's, uh, a little bit easier to, uh, like communicate with me.
• 31:50
  So I've been coaching, uh, some girls, uh, who are also streamers and they've
• 31:54
  been really comfortable with me.
• 31:55
  And, uh, then tell me about this and.
• 32:00
  So, how's it for you?
• 32:01
  And, uh mm-hmm.
• 32:02
  Do you think that maybe you can build a maybe female, uh,
• 32:07
  academia or something like this?
• 32:10
  All right.
• 32:11
  Well, um, female academia, I didn't, I would correct you a little bit.
• 32:17
  Mm-hmm.
• 32:18
  It is like female racing team.
• 32:20
  Female racing team.
• 32:21
  I had it and planned then things are, I was too busy in work.
• 32:26
  It just did not happen.
• 32:28
  But it's still in my mind just a female racing team.
• 32:31
  Mm-hmm.
• 32:31
  Yeah.
• 32:32
  Yeah.
• 32:33
  But academic can, can't stop people, you know, they want, they wanna learn.
• 32:37
  Yeah.
• 32:37
  You're a man.
• 32:37
  Not come.
• 32:38
  No, it's not working.
• 32:42
  Yeah.
• 32:42
  But it's, I adore my ladies and what.
• 32:47
  I look, it's just general.
• 32:50
  It's not to hurt a man feeling, let's say this way or so, but ladies, what
• 32:57
  they do, how fast they learn mm-hmm.
• 33:00
  They're like, statistically, I cannot say a hundred percent on everybody,
• 33:04
  but it's not a number of, um, like a minimum, uh, statistically basically.
• 33:10
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:10
  That's what I wanna say.
• 33:12
  Yeah.
• 33:16
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:17
  So sometimes it's easier to say some, some things like that.
• 33:22
  So statistically, ladies are learning faster.
• 33:24
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:25
  That's what I can ask, say.
• 33:26
  And it's important to find the right way, right approach.
• 33:31
  I always believe that there are no bad students, there are bad teachers.
• 33:34
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:35
  So when a person can feel the student, there are no like, you
• 33:40
  know, marker or shalon or marker.
• 33:45
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:45
  You're gonna be going this way.
• 33:46
  And that's how it works.
• 33:47
  First.
• 33:47
  1, 2, 3, 4. This will never work this way for somebody, will for somebody.
• 33:51
  No, but why do you will?
• 33:52
  Well, you will struggle and struggle and exhaust other people.
• 33:56
  Mm-hmm.
• 33:56
  No, it is individual.
• 33:58
  So lady can feel, you know, more of, uh, the right way, the right approach.
• 34:04
  I can feel how she's ready, how to make her ready, how to change
• 34:08
  her attention, move to somewhere else so she can rest mm-hmm.
• 34:12
  From this stress, which is, you know, bring out.
• 34:13
  So it's, it's like an art.
• 34:15
  I can say it's, it's hard to explain it, but with the ladies, I believe, let me
• 34:21
  put a sta couple of stars on my shoulders.
• 34:23
  I believe I'm doing a great job with the ladies.
• 34:29
  Yeah.
• 34:29
  I gonna say it.
• 34:30
  And I'm so proud of it.
• 34:32
  Yeah.
• 34:33
  Well, my ladies are the best.
• 34:36
  Everybody the best, but the ladies are number one.
• 34:42
  Yeah.
• 34:43
  You know, I'm just thinking that, uh, maybe ladies, uh, learn faster
• 34:47
  because, uh, they don't have this, uh, stereotypical, uh, thoughts
• 34:52
  in their mind, uh, about that, you know, you have to be strong.
• 34:55
  You have to be the fastest, right, right.
• 34:57
  From, uh, from the first coaching session or something like this.
• 35:01
  And, um, maybe they just, uh, you know, learning step by step.
• 35:05
  And, uh, I noticed, uh, the same when I did, uh, coaching in some racing.
• 35:10
  Uh, so the girl, uh, which I've been coaching for some time, she's like, you
• 35:16
  know, listening closely and, uh, trying to do everything step by step and also
• 35:22
  communicate with me, uh, in a nice way.
• 35:24
  Yes.
• 35:24
  So it's really cool.
• 35:25
  Yeah.
• 35:26
  Did you notice that ladies in general, they.
• 35:30
  Don't have an ego, which is not to you personally, not to, to instructor, not
• 35:38
  to coach a ego within, I don't know, something themself like they're hurry.
• 35:43
  Mm-hmm.
• 35:44
  They know they not, maybe didn't really understand.
• 35:46
  Maybe they're not ready.
• 35:48
  Uh, or maybe you need just one more thing to try, you know, in between.
• 35:53
  No, they jump in.
• 35:54
  So they jump in, they can hurt themselves, and then they get scared.
• 35:57
  They have step back and blah, blah.
• 35:59
  Mm-hmm.
• 36:00
  So the ego gonna slap ladies.
• 36:02
  What I noticed, they quite, uh, they, they, they put it outside somewhere else.
• 36:07
  If, if somebody has it, they put it outside on, on the training,
• 36:11
  they're coming, you know, pure.
• 36:13
  Mm-hmm.
• 36:13
  So, um, that's how they focus better.
• 36:16
  They learn better.
• 36:18
  They, they just like maybe one, two more times.
• 36:21
  More, but they will do it with feeling, you know?
• 36:24
  Mm-hmm.
• 36:24
  They close feeling first.
• 36:26
  They kind of feel better.
• 36:27
  Yeah.
• 36:28
  Like that.
• 36:29
  Did you notice something like that?
• 36:30
  Yeah.
• 36:30
  Yeah.
• 36:31
  I think I noticed, uh, the same because, uh, you know, boys, they Harry so
• 36:36
  bad sometimes and they like Exactly.
• 36:38
  Trying to jump over their head and, uh, yes.
• 36:42
  Yeah.
• 36:42
  As a, as a girl, you, you just trying to, you know, do
• 36:45
  everything step, step by step.
• 36:47
  Of course if you, uh, in competition you sometimes, uh, trying to jump over your
• 36:52
  head, but, uh, when you're learning, you trying to do like everything step
• 36:56
  by step because you, uh, understand that you, that this going to lead you
• 37:00
  to a good result then on the track.
• 37:03
  Exactly.
• 37:04
  And interesting point that when people come to training, it depends
• 37:08
  on the category and blah blah, but in anyway, the condition its own trainer.
• 37:13
  Mm-hmm.
• 37:14
  Like if they listen to trainer, you are not gonna be hurt a hundred percent.
• 37:18
  Not a hundred percent.
• 37:20
  If you listen, you trainer, you're not gonna be hurt.
• 37:24
  Right?
• 37:24
  Yeah.
• 37:24
  And so people who is watching me, they for sure have some of their own thinking
• 37:28
  who get hurt, they did not listen.
• 37:30
  And they know about it a hundred percent.
• 37:31
  I have one person, I, maybe he can hear it if he is wearing it.
• 37:37
  So he knows, uh, they like this.
• 37:38
  Okay.
• 37:41
  Because, because, you know, the, the trainer can, can balance
• 37:45
  your speed, you know everything.
• 37:50
  You will balance that.
• 37:51
  Even if you fall, you're not gonna get hurt.
• 37:54
  But sometimes you need to to fall.
• 37:56
  And I hurt couple of times.
• 37:59
  Oh, many times actually what they said, you know.
• 38:02
  Speed was nothing.
• 38:03
  But actually I had bruise.
• 38:05
  It's hurting.
• 38:09
  I'm like, yeah, but you're okay.
• 38:11
  You'll sit a little bit, so you'll walk, you'll do everything what you need to do.
• 38:15
  But yes, it's a, it's a learning process.
• 38:18
  You can fall and you did it, but you are, you are able, you're not.
• 38:22
  Mm-hmm.
• 38:23
  You know, you're able to, to be normal, don't work and do everything.
• 38:26
  And he say, yeah, but you know, in the road I'm riding not this
• 38:32
  speed and I'm not wearing this full safety girls, you know, they're.
• 38:37
  It's like awake, awakening for them.
• 38:40
  Mm-hmm.
• 38:41
  How actually feel like when the first time fall down on the
• 38:45
  training base, they already feel it.
• 38:47
  The bruise somewhere happened, you know, usually they put on the bat on
• 38:50
  somewhere else or somewhere there.
• 38:51
  Some, some bruises happening from actually like little so slow speed, so minor speed.
• 38:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 38:59
  Yeah.
• 38:59
  And it's like a big awakening for them.
• 39:01
  It's like a brain start to work.
• 39:03
  It's good.
• 39:04
  Mm-hmm.
• 39:05
  Yeah.
• 39:05
  For sure.
• 39:06
  You know, we all learning from mistakes and, uh, it, it's okay to, you know,
• 39:10
  crash out on the racing track and, uh, do mistakes, uh, because Yes,
• 39:14
  you're actually learning from them.
• 39:16
  Because if you fall down Yes.
• 39:17
  With motorcycle, then you, uh, like going to, um, tell about this.
• 39:23
  Yeah.
• 39:23
  And, uh, you going to tell Yes what what's mistakes and uh, then you go on
• 39:28
  to correct them, uh, in next sessions.
• 39:30
  Yeah, exactly.
• 39:30
  I agree with you.
• 39:32
  Alright, can you tell me what's your, uh, personal bike and, uh,
• 39:37
  like favorite, uh, to ride and why?
• 39:40
  Okay.
• 39:41
  Well, very nice question.
• 39:42
  Thank you.
• 39:47
  Yeah.
• 39:49
  So, uh, an all ages, an all time.
• 39:53
  My favorite bike is BMW thousand.
• 39:57
  Mm-hmm.
• 39:58
  Before it was s then it later became m So it is a classic beautiful bike.
• 40:05
  I love it, but it's not that the bike, which is I gonna enjoy on
• 40:10
  the racetrack, at least in Dubai.
• 40:12
  Alright?
• 40:13
  Mm-hmm.
• 40:13
  Because I, I didn't try BMW on other trucks.
• 40:17
  I didn't really try it.
• 40:18
  So it's today opinion.
• 40:20
  I might change it later.
• 40:21
  Yeah.
• 40:21
  But today I tried it in Dubai and I. Found out that a 600 category, which
• 40:28
  is a racing, is a much, much, much faster, much better, much everything.
• 40:33
  Amazing.
• 40:34
  So I segregated this way, BMW, it is my road bike because mm-hmm.
• 40:39
  I'm not racing on the road.
• 40:41
  It has enough glass.
• 40:42
  Mm-hmm.
• 40:43
  Enough power.
• 40:44
  But you know, when not gonna use this power, you just have it and that's it.
• 40:47
  You know it in your pocket, you know it.
• 40:49
  And like if you have a Ferrari, you don't have to use the power, you know, the
• 40:55
  Ferrari, you just have it and that's it.
• 40:57
  Mm-hmm.
• 40:58
  So I, this is about, and w and it is a road bike.
• 41:03
  So, and then I have other bike, which is a race bike.
• 41:06
  Mm-hmm.
• 41:07
  Race bike between two.
• 41:08
  I still, to be honest, don't know, I have a Yamaha and a Kawasaki
• 41:12
  Yamaha, R six Kawasaki is a six.
• 41:13
  Six R. Mm-hmm.
• 41:15
  So between these two bikes, I still don't know, but I know the
• 41:18
  Kawasaki, not everybody can ride.
• 41:21
  And by the way, those who ride in Kawasaki can ride any bike.
• 41:25
  Mm-hmm.
• 41:25
  Those who is riding other bikes, they will be struggling or they
• 41:30
  might say, Kawasaki, I don't like it.
• 41:33
  You know?
• 41:33
  So it's not easy to ride a Kawasaki, it's not easy to ride a Kawasaki.
• 41:37
  It's a very moody, um, lady.
• 41:39
  Very moody, very sensitive.
• 41:42
  More than other bikes, I ride many bikes.
• 41:45
  Mm-hmm.
• 41:45
  Many, many, many, many, especially, you know, race category bikes.
• 41:48
  Yes.
• 41:48
  Many, many.
• 41:49
  But the Kawasaki is very special.
• 41:51
  So I respect a lot of people.
• 41:52
  Everybody who rides bikes, but especially Kawasaki on the
• 41:55
  racetrack, not on the streets.
• 41:57
  On the streets are okay, but race style Kawasaki who can do this, they
• 42:02
  can definitely manage any motorcycle.
• 42:05
  Mm-hmm.
• 42:05
  So yes, it's, it's two of my racing bikes.
• 42:09
  Mm-hmm.
• 42:10
  Yeah, this bike's been traveling Kiro, I send them by plane.
• 42:14
  Very cool.
• 42:14
  Days was, so we raced over there and come back.
• 42:17
  It was amazing, you know?
• 42:21
  Yeah.
• 42:23
  That's the, uh, my, my bikes.
• 42:25
  I love it so much.
• 42:27
  The Ducati beautiful, but, well, I never had dati as my own bike.
• 42:32
  And when I race, because there's also like, you know, competition between
• 42:35
  Ducati and BMW, and it's like, uh, people are to, it's forever, forever conflict.
• 42:45
  Forever better.
• 42:46
  Not that better.
• 42:47
  This better.
• 42:47
  Not that better.
• 42:48
  So I'm on the m BMW side and I raced, I really raced, uh, the Duc.
• 42:56
  In, in Bahrain?
• 42:58
  No, no, no, no, no.
• 42:59
  Bahrain school came to Dubai.
• 43:00
  Mm-hmm.
• 43:01
  And they managed to officially with que race in, in Dubai.
• 43:05
  So I raised the Ducati.
• 43:07
  Beautiful.
• 43:08
  But m BMW
• 43:12
  a beautiful one, but I never own it, so maybe I need to own
• 43:15
  it to understand it better.
• 43:17
  That knows, you know, it's actually really nice that you mentioned, uh, BMW
• 43:21
  because, uh, uh, in people mind, they're like, oh, BMW's, that's like cars.
• 43:25
  But, uh, they actually making a really nice motorcycles also.
• 43:30
  And, uh, they, they're beautiful.
• 43:33
  So when I see motorcycle from BMW on streets, I'm like, wow.
• 43:37
  It's, it's really beautiful.
• 43:38
  Love it.
• 43:39
  It is very beautiful.
• 43:42
  You see, see?
• 43:43
  Yeah.
• 43:43
  Yeah.
• 43:43
  You don't have really ride a bike.
• 43:46
  BMW has something, um, again, that's always BM bmw or the
• 43:51
  ka, the cat's beautiful.
• 43:54
  It's, it's a very beautiful bike, but I believe BMW, it's
• 43:59
  so much elegance, you know it.
• 44:02
  Mm-hmm.
• 44:03
  The brutal, brutal by, yeah.
• 44:06
  True.
• 44:07
  Yeah.
• 44:08
  But BMW, it has a power in glass too.
• 44:11
  That's it.
• 44:12
  Power in glass.
• 44:13
  It has its presence.
• 44:15
  All right.
• 44:16
  As you, you need to, maybe you need to try it one day, uh, just,
• 44:19
  you know, to, to ride a motorbike.
• 44:22
  Maybe you come to Dubai and I'm gonna put you on bike.
• 44:27
  That sounds good.
• 44:28
  You know, actually, uh, it's really funny.
• 44:30
  Uh, so I did ing, I did formulas, uh, and uh, like some GT cars as well.
• 44:37
  Uh, but when in childhood I've been watching motor gp,
• 44:41
  I'm a big fan of Valentino.
• 44:43
  Uh, that's why Oh yeah, that's why I got number 46.
• 44:47
  And that's why my nickname here is Love 46, uh, because I've been with
• 44:52
  this racing number for my life.
• 44:55
  So yeah, maybe I have to try motorcycle.
• 44:58
  You are gonna ride in one day.
• 45:01
  Like one hour, one day you will be riding motorcycle.
• 45:05
  Yeah.
• 45:06
  You are not gonna go like volunteer Rosie.
• 45:08
  That's so, I did not mention that.
• 45:11
  No, but you will be managing just to feel, what is that?
• 45:16
  When you're riding motorbike for the first time and you know, it
• 45:20
  just listens you and you're not scared, you know what you're doing.
• 45:23
  You can stop easily, you can, you know a bit, you can accelerate later.
• 45:27
  Mm-hmm.
• 45:27
  We can agree with you little because speed.
• 45:28
  Okay.
• 45:29
  Little bit.
• 45:32
  Yeah.
• 45:33
  But yeah, it's just one day.
• 45:35
  Yeah.
• 45:35
  You know, 98% God knows that they maybe, you know, not ready, it's too much.
• 45:41
  Whatever.
• 45:42
  But 19%.
• 45:44
  Mm-hmm.
• 45:44
  It's gonna be one.
• 45:44
  Yeah.
• 45:45
  You know, I'm just, uh, I'm so afraid to ride a motorcycle
• 45:49
  on streets, uh, because here.
• 45:52
  I just moved to Elma.
• 45:53
  Uh, this is my hometown and like a lot of people, uh, got
• 45:58
  scooters here, ball, right?
• 46:00
  Yeah.
• 46:00
  But you know, it's actually the traffic and uh, whole traffic crazy.
• 46:06
  And I'm so afraid to ride motorcycle here.
• 46:09
  Uh, but you know, I've never been thinking that, hey, I can try it
• 46:12
  on the racing track, actually.
• 46:16
  Uh, I see.
• 46:17
  Yeah, you all time.
• 46:21
  You're welcome.
• 46:22
  But, but wise by way about Alti, I heard there's so many bikes over there.
• 46:27
  It's a very developed mm-hmm.
• 46:29
  You know, cultural country for a motorcycle.
• 46:32
  That's what I heard.
• 46:33
  I never been there, but I heard, um, maybe three weeks ago or two weeks
• 46:37
  ago, I heard something like that.
• 46:38
  Hmm.
• 46:39
  I'm like, really?
• 46:40
  Okay.
• 46:40
  Interesting.
• 46:41
  Really.
• 46:41
  Okay.
• 46:42
  So, but mind wise to you.
• 46:46
  There if you gonna try it, if you wanna search the right person, you
• 46:51
  know, for the first time, because this is the most important thing.
• 46:54
  Mm-hmm.
• 46:54
  It's, some people might never like it because of the first experience
• 46:59
  and then it's gonna be fair.
• 47:01
  One fall on the first class is gonna be, you know, forever changing the picture.
• 47:05
  Mm-hmm.
• 47:05
  I always say if you first time fall, or not even, especially at the beginning,
• 47:11
  first time or whatever, we don't usually fall on first class usually.
• 47:16
  Okay.
• 47:16
  When we, because it's a first step back.
• 47:19
  Mm-hmm.
• 47:19
  You don't have any steps and you know, yet.
• 47:21
  And if we have a back, it's not good.
• 47:25
  Not good.
• 47:26
  Really.
• 47:26
  And then if for some reason her, uh, she or he not, did not jump on the bike again,
• 47:34
  the same time on the same class for any reason, God knows, maybe a hurt, maybe a
• 47:39
  bike broke and you don't have other one.
• 47:41
  Mm-hmm.
• 47:41
  God knows.
• 47:42
  Yeah.
• 47:42
  There can be resist like that.
• 47:45
  Then this finishing part on the fall is the worst part.
• 47:50
  Whatever, because it's like a seed small al small seed Yeah.
• 47:56
  Of fa and it just plant it.
• 47:58
  Mm-hmm.
• 47:59
  So if you're not gonna jump on it again, it's gonna grow.
• 48:04
  It gonna grow.
• 48:04
  And then to be big tree of fear.
• 48:07
  Mm-hmm.
• 48:08
  And then you have to deal with it.
• 48:09
  You know, it's a lot of work to finish that.
• 48:11
  But if it's the same time, fall down, drink water.
• 48:13
  Okay.
• 48:14
  All good.
• 48:14
  Yellow jumping in, you jump, you jump on it.
• 48:17
  And then nothing we killed, it's it, you know, nothing.
• 48:19
  We remove it.
• 48:21
  That's the restaurant.
• 48:22
  Yeah.
• 48:22
  It's, it's real important to have a proper, uh, first experience.
• 48:26
  I agree with you.
• 48:27
  Yeah.
• 48:27
  It's very important.
• 48:29
  It's a fun diamond.
• 48:30
  First, first, first, fun diamond.
• 48:32
  Very important.
• 48:33
  So try to search and I'm, I'm sure there are plenty of people can
• 48:36
  help you, but, but you know, see.
• 48:40
  These people, like where they train, how they train, who they
• 48:43
  train, who these people became.
• 48:45
  Mm-hmm.
• 48:45
  Like, this kind of questions are very important.
• 48:47
  Not only this, this, this, no.
• 48:49
  Who did you teach?
• 48:50
  No.
• 48:50
  Where is these people, like how they are now?
• 48:54
  Maybe you can contact these people, listen feedback from them.
• 48:57
  Mm-hmm.
• 48:57
  It's important.
• 48:58
  Yeah, that's true.
• 49:00
  So, uh, or come to Dubai or wait a bit, then come to Dubai.
• 49:05
  Yeah.
• 49:05
  Maybe.
• 49:08
  All right.
• 49:08
  Yeah.
• 49:08
  I'm sure you're gonna enjoy a lot.
• 49:10
  So as we've been, uh, talking about bikes, yeah.
• 49:12
  So you got like road bike and you got bikes, uh, which you riding on track
• 49:17
  and, uh, like your, um, people, uh, who's learning from you, also writing them.
• 49:24
  Uh, can you give, uh, advice to someone who want to transition from
• 49:29
  street writing to track writing and uh, uh, what's actually the
• 49:33
  first thing they should learn?
• 49:36
  Okay.
• 49:38
  Good question.
• 49:39
  Well, for where to start?
• 49:41
  So much to say the first thing is not easy, but choice.
• 49:46
  Uh, again, if, if somebody from the streets wanna try a racetrack, I would
• 49:52
  advise to find a place near you in your hometown or close somewhere near somebody
• 49:59
  who can help you at least one class.
• 50:02
  You know, go somebody to explain, because it is another world.
• 50:05
  It's not, it's totally different from whatever street can say.
• 50:10
  It's completely different.
• 50:12
  So, because when you will go to the racetrack, you might, you will
• 50:18
  enjoy half or maybe some percent.
• 50:20
  Mm-hmm.
• 50:20
  But if you have something before, you know, per private session, somebody
• 50:24
  who can give it to you to week and give it to radio on the plate, like.
• 50:29
  You, then you, maybe it's gonna be mini modelto, right?
• 50:32
  Mm-hmm.
• 50:33
  It's, you fall mini, mini modelto is the shortest way to
• 50:36
  understand fastest, shortest, the easiest, all of the tenons in it.
• 50:41
  So the way I understand the racetrack, the physics, the
• 50:45
  everything, the sitting position.
• 50:48
  So it's, it's, it's amazing.
• 50:49
  Even one class, one, mm-hmm.
• 50:51
  Somebody carting, you can go onto carting.
• 50:53
  It's will not be expensive.
• 50:54
  It's probably, they will rent you, you know, the safety gears.
• 50:58
  So you can experience that.
• 51:00
  And then when you go to the bakery truck, you really enjoy
• 51:03
  because they not stop you.
• 51:04
  They will never, never, never stop.
• 51:06
  You need to have some experience on the streets.
• 51:08
  You go sign, you can rent from them, a suit, a bikes, everything you
• 51:13
  can, nobody will stop organizers.
• 51:15
  Usually they only stop those people whose complete beginners, which
• 51:20
  really struck for you, you know?
• 51:21
  Mm-hmm.
• 51:21
  Only but if you have some to experience on streets, they never stop you.
• 51:27
  How much will you enjoy over there?
• 51:28
  You know, it is gonna be expensive in anyway, but how much, and
• 51:33
  it's also one thing is enjoyment.
• 51:35
  Other thing is your own safety, of course.
• 51:37
  Mm-hmm.
• 51:38
  Maybe doesn't swap them up here.
• 51:39
  This too.
• 51:40
  Yeah.
• 51:40
  The safety and then ment altogether.
• 51:43
  But if you have a. Personal session with someone.
• 51:46
  Coach.
• 51:46
  I'm not saying me.
• 51:47
  So where you live, right.
• 51:49
  On a big bike or a mini motto.
• 51:52
  Yes.
• 51:52
  It'll gonna be so easy first time, but you luck, you will understand.
• 51:56
  Mm-hmm.
• 51:57
  So with this knowledge, you go to the big racetrack and then say, enjoy weather.
• 52:01
  That's what I was saying.
• 52:02
  Alright.
• 52:03
  Don't go just blindly.
• 52:04
  That's nice.
• 52:04
  Yeah.
• 52:05
  Yeah.
• 52:05
  Actually, uh, you remind me that I actually try mini
• 52:08
  motor, uh, on a car trek once.
• 52:10
  It's been really fun.
• 52:12
  Um, because did you know, it's, it's small and, uh, it's quite easy to
• 52:16
  uh, like steer and do everything.
• 52:19
  It's really nice.
• 52:19
  You did it by yourself?
• 52:21
  Yeah, yeah, I did it.
• 52:23
  Oh really?
• 52:24
  Yeah.
• 52:24
  Yeah.
• 52:24
  That's amazing.
• 52:26
  Okay.
• 52:27
  I did not know that.
• 52:28
  Okay.
• 52:28
  That's super amazing.
• 52:29
  Yeah.
• 52:29
  You know, it was real funny.
• 52:30
  Uh, I was in a carting suit with a carting helmet and all this stuff.
• 52:35
  So I've been, uh, doing like a couple of laps.
• 52:39
  Ben May, maybe that was not good experience because on the bike they would
• 52:42
  is you cannot be wearing the same suit, you know, because you need another Sure.
• 52:47
  Yeah.
• 52:47
  It, it's not good suit.
• 52:49
  Alright.
• 52:50
  Because it's leather.
• 52:52
  That's it.
• 52:52
  Nothing else cannot be cutting suit.
• 52:54
  No, no, no, no.
• 52:56
  But I'm glad you it.
• 52:58
  Yeah.
• 52:59
  You know, I think it's, uh, it's good to start from scratch.
• 53:01
  Uh, so as you said, like try mini motor and then go to the big track.
• 53:05
  Uh, because, uh, for me also, when you've been.
• 53:09
  Racing on a card circuit.
• 53:11
  Uh, then when I, uh, first time jump into open Wheeler, for
• 53:14
  example, uh, I was in shock.
• 53:17
  Like, you can see anything from formula.
• 53:20
  Uh, it's really limited view compared to, uh, to the cart.
• 53:24
  And, uh, you, you really need time to get used to the big track because it's
• 53:29
  Of course, of course it's different.
• 53:30
  Yeah, of course, of course.
• 53:33
  But it's like simulator live simulator.
• 53:36
  You from, from carting, you go to to, to what?
• 53:38
  To the next story.
• 53:39
  I What about cars?
• 53:41
  Not so much educated, but I mean, you have a carting then after carting,
• 53:46
  there is something upgraded, right?
• 53:48
  Yeah.
• 53:48
  Some cars.
• 53:49
  Which one?
• 53:50
  Then?
• 53:50
  And then, then.
• 53:51
  So it's, it's like transitioning you, you will be understanding what you're doing.
• 53:56
  You'll have apex, you know, middle corner exit, I dunno.
• 54:00
  Entry, middle corner, exit.
• 54:01
  Apex is everything like, you know, line.
• 54:03
  It's important where you can get it, you'll get it the fastest
• 54:05
  way of somewhere on carting.
• 54:07
  That's the fastest way shortcut.
• 54:08
  Course.
• 54:09
  Yeah, no, if you, if you got a really good, uh, base, uh, like, uh, it,
• 54:13
  it's going to lead you to like more experience and, uh, you're going
• 54:17
  to learn easier, in easier way.
• 54:19
  Um, mm-hmm.
• 54:21
  So last one.
• 54:22
  Exactly.
• 54:22
  Uh, let's talk about your future.
• 54:25
  Um, so what's your plans?
• 54:27
  Uh, what are you planning for this year and for upcoming years?
• 54:30
  Also, uh, are you going to stay in coaching?
• 54:33
  Are you going to stay in Dubai or are you maybe moving to other countries?
• 54:39
  Amazing question.
• 54:40
  Well, it is so much amazing because I am really little, little bit.
• 54:45
  Okay.
• 54:46
  I'm gonna say some secrets, but not too much.
• 54:48
  Okay.
• 54:49
  Alright.
• 54:51
  Okay.
• 54:52
  Not too much.
• 54:53
  Well, of course, here is Dubai.
• 54:54
  I'm, I'm coming back to Dubai soon.
• 54:56
  Basically.
• 54:58
  Uh, a lot to do with their, uh, to, we have a lot of work with the
• 55:02
  students, those who unfinished.
• 55:04
  Mm-hmm.
• 55:05
  You know, work.
• 55:06
  We have unfinished work and we have, we didn't start yet work.
• 55:09
  We have a lot of work.
• 55:11
  So, uh, also the project of, um, of our ways I could have say yeah, but which
• 55:17
  has always been struggle in Dubai.
• 55:19
  I, in, I hope it'll be, you know, a successful, I general
• 55:24
  hope it'll work, to be honest.
• 55:26
  Mm-hmm.
• 55:26
  I'm trying something.
• 55:28
  If it'll work, I gain hope with God help then.
• 55:32
  We'll need to do another podcast with you.
• 55:35
  Alright.
• 55:37
  If it'll work.
• 55:38
  Okay.
• 55:39
  We'll, not to say, but if not, I think it'll be the same.
• 55:44
  And I'm kind of, I'll say one thing in Russian.
• 55:47
  Yes.
• 55:52
  Creator.
• 55:55
  Yeah.
• 55:56
  Yeah.
• 55:57
  So to try to translate it in English, like if you want to, um,
• 56:01
  you know, entertain or make laugh, uh, God, tell him about your plan.
• 56:06
  Yeah.
• 56:06
  So I, lately, lately I do have a direction, I do have a plan, but I'll
• 56:11
  always keep a big gap Some place.
• 56:14
  I, I don't wanna say big or small, I will keep place for gut interference
• 56:18
  because whenever he knows, it'll be always better than ever.
• 56:23
  I can imagine.
• 56:23
  You know?
• 56:24
  Mm-hmm.
• 56:24
  That's it.
• 56:25
  So I, I open this door complete.
• 56:27
  Yes.
• 56:28
  The rest, we're gonna just work, teach people safe lives,
• 56:32
  you know, inspire, make dreams.
• 56:34
  True again, bikes.
• 56:36
  Nothing else.
• 56:37
  I don't see myself in painting, however, I'm a tattoo artist.
• 56:40
  But so far this became for me, more, far, more, far, more far.
• 56:43
  I'm sold with bikes, bike bikes.
• 56:46
  Yes.
• 56:47
  And also what I see here in Russia, um, currently in Cdar, a lot of
• 56:54
  bikes, PE people are unfortunately a lot of situations not good here.
• 56:58
  Not really nice to, to mention.
• 57:00
  I feel that they also need some help.
• 57:02
  Mm-hmm.
• 57:02
  So I maybe will see how can I make it in those places one year.
• 57:06
  Mm-hmm.
• 57:07
  And one there.
• 57:08
  Right.

• 57:12
  You know, I really like, uh, to go with.
• 57:14
  You got, you got a plan.
• 57:16
  Uh, but you kind of go in with the flow.
• 57:18
  So if you mm-hmm.

  Get some like side opportunities, you're like, Hey, maybe I can try this.
• 57:24
