Junior
Together with her sister, Margarita Kolosov began rhythmic gymnastics at SC Potsdam. In August 2016, she moved to the federal base in Fellbach.[1] From 2017 to 2019, she was German Junior Champion in the all-around. While she won only one final in 2017, she also won all four gold medals in the following two years.[2] In 2018 she started together with Emeli Erbes at the European Championships in Guadalajara . Since the German senior group retired shortly before the competition, they could not participate in the team classification. At the first Junior World Championships in Rhythmic Gymnastics in Moscow in 2019, she placed 15th in the team event with Darja Varfolomeev.
Senior
In 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, Kolosov was only able to take part in a few competitions in her first senior season. In 2021 she competed for the first time at the German Championships in the senior category, as part of "The Finals" and won all the gold medals in the individual competitions. At her first European Senior Championships in Varna, she qualified for the all-round final, finishing 24th. She also reached the all-around final at the World Championships in Kitakyūshū and finished 16th, the best result of a German individual gymnastics since 2013.[3] At the end of the year, she and the team of the Berlin TSC finished second in the rhythmic gymnastics bundesliga.[4]
