215 figure skaters currently train at the specialized figure skating
school of Yerevan. The Presidnet of the Figure Skating Federation
of Armenia, Director of the Figure Skating School of Yerevan Samvel
Khachatryan told Armenpress that there are many talented boys and
girls among them.

Aramayis Grigoryana and Hovhannes Lazarian already have an experience
of participation in international competitions. However, according to
Samvel Khachatryan, the size of the skating ring of Yerevan does not
correspond to international standards, that is why Armenian sportsmen
face difficulties when they perform on bigger rinks.

As for the pairs, Armenia is represented only by Anastasia
Grebenkina-Vazgen Azroyan ice dancing couple. According to Samvel
Khachatryan figure skating is a very difficult kind of sport and
derives serious attention.
