Tamara Moskvin turns 80 and still going strong.

This is where we discuss figure skating and skating related items. How did you favourite skaters perform, and so on? However we never speculate on the private lives of skaters, like who might be going out with whom, because that is poison and is not tolerated here. A good guideline is that if it's not publicly announced, in the papers etc. then it's probably best to leave it alone. Is it a gray area? Then write to me and ask.

Tamara Moskvin turns 80 and still going strong.

What an incredible career she has had to date, as a single skater, pairs skater, and coach, and continues to have in coaching!

Her former pairs partner, Alexei Mishin (another successful coach), posted a message (in Russian) and this photo on the occasion of her birthday today:
"TAMARA, DO NOT CHANGE."

What a life and career. Her list of pairs skaters reads lie the who-is who and I remember watching them with awe throughout their career.

Wow!! She hasn't changed much either, looking at the picture of her when she was younger.
