MOSCOW, July 23, Vasily Bogdanov. Russian figure skater Tatyana Navka said that I was afraid of coach Natalya Dubova just like Joseph Stalin. «We had a coach Natalya Dubova, everyone was afraid of her like Stalin. At the age of 15-16, problems with weight began, after two peaches she gained a kilogram. She weighed me, hit me, I then she was painfully hurt, and then she closed it in a room where there were rats. Someone will say that it was a nightmare. Mom, having found out, wanted to take me away. But I said don’t you dare to do that. I’m grateful for such hardening — now I’m not afraid nothing,» Navka told reporters.
