Personal life
Natalia Kaliszek was born on 17 May 1996 in Toruń, Poland.[1] She has two siblings, Michał and Anna, both of whom have competed in figure skating.
Early career
Natalia Kaliszek competed in ladies' singles as a child. In 2007, she teamed up with her brother, Michał Kaliszek, to compete in pair skating. In 2009, they appeared at two ISU Junior Grand Prix events, placing 13th and 18th. In 2010, the two switched to ice dancing. In the 2011–12 season, the Kaliszeks received two JGP assignments, finishing 11th at both, and debuted on the senior level at the Pavel Roman Memorial, where they placed fifth. They were sent to the 2012 World Junior Championships in Minsk, Belarus but were eliminated after the preliminary round. They were coached by Sylwia Nowak-Trębacka in Toruń[2] and ended their partnership after the 2012–13 season.[3]
In 2013, Kaliszek teamed up with Russian ice dancer Yaroslav Kurbakov. The two were coached by Nowak-Trębacka and represented Poland. They placed 9th and 13th at their JGP assignments and second at the Polish Junior Championships. They parted ways at the end of the season.
Partnership with Spodyriev
2014–15 season
In 2014, Kaliszek began competing with Ukrainian ice dancer Maksym Spodyriev for Poland, coached by Nowak-Trębacka in Toruń. The two made their international debut at the Volvo Open Cup, where they took the junior silver medal. Switching to the senior level, they placed sixth at an Challenger Series event, the Warsaw Cup, before winning gold at the Santa Claus Cup. They won the Polish national title at the Four Nationals in December 2014 and took bronze the following month at the MNNT Cup.
Kaliszek/Spodyriev were selected to represent Poland at the European Championships, held in late January 2015 in Stockholm, Sweden. Ranked 15th in the short dance, they qualified to the free dance, where they placed 14th and rose to 14th overall. In early March, they made their second and final appearance on the junior level, competing at the World Junior Championships in Tallinn, Estonia; they placed 10th in the short dance, 6th in the free dance, and 7th overall. Later in March, they traveled to Shanghai, China for the World Championships, but were eliminated after placing 24th in the short dance.
2015–16 season
Kaliszek/Spodyriev competed in three 2015–16 Challenger Series competitions – after placing 7th at the 2015 Nebelhorn Trophy, they won bronze at the 2015 Mordovian Ornament and silver at the 2015 Warsaw Cup.
