Victoria Reznik

Victoria Reznik (born 25 June 1995) is a Canadian former rhythmic gymnast who primarily competed as a group member. She won a bronze medal at the 2010 Summer Youth Olympics and two bronze medals at the 2015 Pan American Games. She now works as a lawyer in the United States.

Early and personal life Reznik was born in Almaty, Kazakhstan. Her family is Jewish, and they moved to Bat Yam, Israel when Reznik was two. When she was 10, they moved again to Toronto, Canada.

She is the twin sister of Anjelika Reznik, who also competed in the Canadian national group. and their mother was a rhythmic gymnast who competed on the Kazakh national team. She did not initially put them into gymnastics, and when they expressed interest in training recreationally after moving to Canada, she did not intend for them to become elite gymnasts. This earned them a berth to compete at the 2010 Youth Olympic Games. In August 2010, she competed at the first-ever Youth Olympics as a group member; the Canadian group rose from 4th after qualifications to win the bronze medal. Reznik expressed happiness about their medal afterward, saying, "This medal means joy and pride and a lot of hard work and sweat."

The next year, Reznik's sister, Anjelika Reznik, successfully tried out for the senior national group; Victoria, however, was not selected. She competed as an individual, then retired for a time, before returning to gymnastics after watching her sister compete at the 2012 Summer Olympics. She spent the next two years working to catch up to the national team. She said of competing alongside her sister, "There’s for sure some competition going on. If she’s better at something, I have to strive to be able to do it as well." At the Games, the team placed 5th in the all-around and won bronze in both event finals.

In September, Reznik competed with the Canadian group at the 2015 World Championships and placed 19th in the all-around. They failed to qualify for the 2016 Summer Olympics, and the group members retired, including Reznik.

Reznik went on to enroll in a dual JD/MBA degree at Northwestern University in the United States. She graduated in 2024; around the time of her graduation, she had a daughter. She now works in global finance at Sidley Austin in New York.
