Mikhail "Misha" Koudinov (born 23 June 1991) is a New Zealand male artistic gymnast, representing his nation in international competitions.

At the 2006 Commonwealth Games in Melbourne, Koudinov was New Zealand's youngest representative.[2] He participated in every edition of the World Championships, since 2007 in Stuttgart, Germany.[3] He was one of three New Zealand gymnasts who competed in the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio; the other two were Courtney McGregor and Dylan Schmidt.[2][1]

In 2017, Koudinov had a new high bar element named after him in the Men's Code of Points.[4] It is described as a Gaylord with a 1/1 turn [5]
