wow Nastia looks so much like her mom now
I love nastia luilkin perfect lines!!! Her story is outstanding
7am is hard for her because of all the mental and physical draining from the practice / day before
Looking back on this is always great because I went to Woga from the ages of 6-10 and I always saw Nastia training and she inspired me to be better.

Nastia Liukin is my top favorite gymnast. She epitomizes true grace, beauty, and elegance in all her routines. She was a born to be an Olympic Champion. Actually, I think she was the first Olympic All-around Gold Medalist under the open scoring system in gymnastics.

You dont need to be all around gold medalist to be a good gymnast! If you use this logic, Aly Raisman wouldn't deserve that either, or Victoria Komova, or many other amazing girls who didnt win the AA!!!
With that ballet, it's no wonder her lines were so graceful. A real mix of modern skill with the balletic style
I'm so happy this has been posted! I've seen bits of this video but nothing in HD
I'm a huge fan of Nastia, for gymnastics in competing or training. Interesting that her parents are gymnasts like, except her mom was a Rhythmic gymnasts.
She's just a true all Russian American gymnast Beauty!...What an American dream she is , just athletic and graceful "GORGEOUS!" And an American gold Olympic champion!
I LOVE nastia luikin is the best gymnast ever

nastia is one of the best gymnast now,2018
It's cool her parents taught in New Orleans, I live next to it in Baton Rouge, I have a flight this morning from New Orleans too
When Nastya came to the sceen I fell in love with her when she performed on the balance beam. I thought to myself that's how you do it.
She actually lived in Parker Texas. But Plano is a bigger city so I guess they used that.

SKochishmiiish that is a little odd--I've noticed that hearing her speak in more recent years, while her messages are articulate in their content, she has started to use "like" more often than she used to.
It would have been cool for her to try rhymic gymnastics when she returned
That's awesome someone from Russia was near, I live in baton rouge that's right next to new orlea

Absolutely, but as Nastia told, when you are a thin child, everybody tell you “It will be very difficult for you to succeed in Artistic Gymnastics”, and great coaches won't be interested in loosing their time coaching you. In the US, if the parents have no money, and if they are tall and thin, their daughter won’t be an elite gymnast. Don’t you think so?
