Plushenko spoke about coaches from his academy who beat children

Two-time Olympic champion in figure skating Evgeni Plushenko spoke about the coaches of his academy who were convicted of assault. Reported by Tatler.

The athlete recalled that several specialists beat their wards. He reprimanded them twice and then fired them. “You can do whatever you want with your children, but not at my school,” Plushenko added. He also noted that young skaters should be motivated by the use of physical force. According to the skater, words and a look are suitable for these purposes.
