Eight years after competing in her first Olympics, Kuzina qualified for the women's 70 kg class, as a 31-year-old, at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing, by placing fifth from the European Judo Championships in Lisbon. Kuzina lost the preliminary round of sixteen match, by a yuko, to Hungary's Anett Mészáros, although she received two shidos (penalties) for using the non-combativity technique.
