There she entered the National School of Arts "Dobri Hristov" as part of the ballet department and continued to train in rhythmic gymnastics as a member of the club "Gracia".

Krasnobaeva won the first two junior-level internal competitions of 2022.[8][9] In March she competed at the Aphrodite Cup in Greece, where she was eighth with clubs.

In June, she was selected to represent Bulgaria, along with Dara Stoyanova, at the 2022 European Championships in Tel Aviv, where she won bronze in team, silver with ball and gold with hoop.[15][16]

2023

[edit]

Krasnobaeva started the 2023 season at the Miss Valentine Tournament in Tartu, along with teammates Nikol Todorova, Dara Stoyanova and Dara Malinova. In the junior team event, she won silver with the rest of the Bulgarian team behind Ukraine and above Kazakhstan. She also qualified for the hoop and ball finals, winning gold in both.[17][18][19] At the second Junior World Championships, Krasnobaeva won two gold medals. One was in the team competition, where she contributed to the team score along with the Bulgarian group and Nikol Todorova. She also won an individual gold in the ball final.[20]

[edit]

In 2024, she made her senior debut at Miss Valentine, winning silver in the all-around, silver in the hoop final and bronze in the ribbon final. On March 23, she won gold in the all-around at her first World Cup in Athens. In the apparatus finals, she won gold with hoop, and silver with clubs and ribbon. At her next World Cup in Baku, she won the silver medal in the all-around and was one of only two gymnasts to qualify for every event final. She won another silver in the ribbon final.[21]

In early May, she won the silver all-around medal at the Bulgarian national championships behind Stiliana Nikolova.[22] Later that month, she competed at the 2024 European Championships with her teammates Nikolova and Boryana Kaleyn, with whom she won the gold medal in the Team event.

In October, Krasnobaeva announced that she would no longer compete for Bulgaria. The Bulgarian Rhythmic Gymnastics Federation ruled that she would be required to pay compensation due to breaking her contract with them.[24] Krasnobaeva said that she would be representing Armenia in the future and that she was changing countries because her family was moving to Russia and she needed to represent a country that would allow her to train there.[25]
