Ramil Sarkulov (born June 16, 1981, in Tashkent) is an Uzbekistani former competitive ice dancer. His partnership with Olesya Pronina lasted at least five seasons, until 1999.[1] He then competed for three seasons with Julia Klochko (1999–2002), training under Galina Churilova in Kharkiv, Ukraine.[2] Klochko/Sarkulov won the Uzbekistani national title in the 2001–02 season and appeared at four ISU Championships – two Four Continents and two Junior Worlds.[3] In the 2002–03 season, he competed with Olga Akimova, coached by Churilova.[4] Sarkulov then had a brief partnership with Ashley Taylor but the two never competed together.[5] In 2007, he teamed up with Sun-hye Yu. Coached by Genrikh Sretenski in the United States, they placed 12th at the 2008 Four Continents and 29th at the 2008 World Championships.[6]

Sarkulov works as a skating coach in Maryland.[7] He has coached Rachel Parsons / Michael Parsons (2016 World Junior silver medalists)[8] and Eliana Gropman / Ian Somerville.[9]
