Arseni Markov

Arseni Markov (born 12 November 1981) is a former competitive ice dancer who competed internationally for Canada and Russia.

Following the 2000–2001 season, Kulikova and Markov moved to Newington, Connecticut, to train full-time with Tatiana Tarasova and Nikolai Morozov.

They parted ways after the 2003 Russian Championships as a result of Tarasova and Morozov ending their coaching partnership – Kulikova chose to stay with Tarasova while Markov chose Morozov.

[2] However, he was unable to compete internationally for Canada until 2005 because ISU regulations require a two-year wait when changing countries.

After the 2005–06 season, they changed coaches from Nikolai Morozov and Shae-Lynn Bourne to Elise Hamel and Tyler Myles.
