Career
Coach Valentina Chebotareva invited Kolyada to join her group when he was five, after observing him at a small rink.[4]
2011–12 to 2012–13
Kolyada began competing on the ISU Junior Grand Prix (JGP) series in 2011. In 2013, he won the Russian Junior Championships and was assigned to the World Junior Championships where he finished 6th.[5]
2013–14 season
In the 2013–14 season, Kolyada won silver and bronze medals on the JGP series, becoming the first alternate for the JGP Final. After placing sixth in the short program at the senior Russian Championships, he withdrew from the free skate, unable to fix a problem with his boot laces.[6]
2014–15 season
Kolyada fractured his right ankle in August 2014, leading to two surgeries and five months off the ice.[3] He withdrew from the 2014 Rostelecom Cup, which would have been his Grand Prix debut, and the 2015 Russian Championships. In March 2015, he won gold at the Gardena Spring Trophy.
2015–16 season
In the 2015–16 season, Kolyada finished third in the Challenger Series (CS) rankings after winning silver at the 2015 Ondrej Nepela Trophy and bronze at the 2015 Ice Challenge.

In January 2016, Kolyada placed 9th in the short program, third in the free skate, and fifth overall at the European Championships in Bratislava, Slovakia. From 30 March to 1 April, he competed at the 2016 World Championships in Boston. Ranked sixth in the short and fifth in the free, he finished fourth overall.
