The mentor who robbed the Pleiad of the Olympic champions was able to become a victim of a sphere of part of the students. Hard techniques, beetle, beetle, and lovers accounted for not to all pupils.Childhood and youth
The future coach was born on January 25, 1935. Beetle - countryman leader of the world proletariat Vladimir Ulyanova-Lenin. By the time of the appearance of Stanislav, his hometown on the Volga has been called the name of the head of the October Revolution for almost 11 years.
As a child, judging by the stories of the aunt and the preserved photo, Stas was the fastened and slightly curved. Relatives have not seen sports departments in a boy, and peers desperately teased, noting in nicknames and surname, and the peculiarities of the body of the beetle.
Immediately after the war, parents with Stas moved from Ulyanovsk to Leningrad, but the summer holidays in the first years of their life in the city on the Neva spent the schoolboy from relatives on the Volga. Soon the boy was born sister Tatiana, who in 1968 under the leadership of the elder brother at the Olympics in Grenoble in a couple with Alexander Gorelik won silver medals.
The family of Zhukov lived in two rooms of the communal apartment on the Petrograd side. In 1950, Stas had to be enjoyed - a cousin from Ulyanovsk Tamara entered his room. The mother of the girl was arrested on the bonos, and the beetles knocked the relative. The first interaction of the cousins turned out to be unsuccessful: Tom feeded the bread of favorite aquarium fish of a cousin's brother, and they died. After the death of Joseph Stalin, the mother of Young Ulyanovsk was freed, and Tamara returned to his hometown.
Figure skating
After the end of the seven, Stanislav entered the physical cultural technical school. Native beetles argue that up to 25 years athlete did not know the taste of alcohol.The future legendary coach did not think about figure skating in earlier youth - elegant sport in the early 50s of the 20th century in the USSR was considered technically primitive. In it, at that time there were no jumps in several revolutions and complex support - all this brought later in pair skating from the beetle. The skaters simply rhythmically circled on the ice, periodically synchronously performing the element "swallow", sometimes the partner gently lifted a partner.
But Stanislav often came to the rink - the young man was engaged in running skates and thought about the career of a hockey player. One day, one of the figure skater engaged next to the student of the physical cultural technical school, the partner was punished, and the coach asked the beetle to temporarily stand in a couple with a girl. So the native of Ulyanovsk met with a future wife, after marriage, I changed the surname Bakushev on the beetle, and came in figure skating.

Stanislav and Nina in his personal life were friends with another family pair of skaters - Lyudmila Belousova and Oleg Protopopov. They were not only rivals, but also antagonists on ice. Beetles made focus on the technicality of riding, and their opponents are on the beauty and elegance of the slip.

So Irina Rodnina, who was late for a minute with exit to the exercise on the ice, Stanislav Alekseevich forced to run 2 kilometers around the stadium. After a number of leaks of the favorite Leonid Brezhnev, together with the partner Alexander Zaitsev moved to another coach - Tatyana Tarasova, who made emphasis on the increase in the artisticity of their riding.
