Both Hanna Shvaiba and Hanna Haidukevich represented the Belarusian team as athletes in the rhythmic gymnastics group competition at the Tokyo Olympic Games. After retiring, they both took up positions as coaches.
In July 2025, fate reunited them. Over 6,000 kilometers from their homeland, in Shenyang, China's Liaoning Province, they became coaches for the Liaoning Golden Star Rhythmic Gymnastics Team. In this city, they now nurture future talents in rhythmic gymnastics, and one of their athletes has already been selected for the national team.
