Jenna To Train In Britain Again
Jenna To Train In Britain Again
Five times British Ladies Ice Skating Champion and 8th in Europe Jenna McCorkell will be arriving back in Britain soon to continue her competitive career with coach Yuri Bureiko. AKR Promotions officially announced today Friday 13th June 2008. Karin Rowlands who is Jenna's PR Consultant commented: 'Jenna has always maintained, as part of her training, her connection to Yuri Bureiko, who was her full-time coach from the age of 14 years until two years ago. In fact Yuri has continued to work on various aspects of both her programmes last season as well as Kevin's and other top skaters from around the country and indeed further afield. To be based in Coventry again makes sense for Jenna for a variety of reasons, her permanent home will be in Belgium of course, but her training base will now be split between Belgium and Coventry, this will make meeting relatives from 'back home' much more accessible as well. Jenna has learned so much from coach Vera Vandecavye and would like to publicly thank Vera for her input over the past two years.' Jenna who recently married Belgian Champion and European Bronze Medallist 2007 Kevin Van der Perren commented: 'To be working with Yuri again will be like coming home. I had continued to work with Yuri even though I moved to Belgium two years ago and he has always continued to have an input in my programmes, so I am delighted that we will be working together again on a more full-time basis.'
