I found this tidbit on GGMB that Sasha has left Tatiana Tarasova to train with Robin Wagner. It has appeared in several newspapers so it appears to be true.

While apparently continuing to coach other skaters and to be with them at the Russian National Championships, from what I have read.

Somehow I thought I read in IFS. that she left Robin.

You're thinking of Sarah Hughes. Sasha has never taken from Robin before. And Sarah hasn't really left her, AFAIK, sh'es just not training at a competitive level right now b/c she's not competing this year.

I know people who are sick that can operate just fine from a set location but can't travel extensively as a result, I don't see why that isn't the case here?

In a Russian article, she said that she wasn't sure if she'd be coaching foreign skaters anymore, and that if she did, she'd only do consulting.
