About the university

In May 2006, the 75th anniversary in the history of the Academy was celebrated, as educational institution, training specialists in the field of physical education and sports. With the opening of the physical education department in the Moscow Regional Pedagogical College in 1931, the path of numerous transformations began, the crown of which was the current Moscow state academy physical culture. We will try to introduce you to individual pages of its glorious historical past.

The estate of the writer Nikolai Dmitrievich Teleshov was allocated for the pedagogical technical school.
N.D. Teleshov, in his declining years, will say about his generation: “We were contemporaries of the great social upsurge and on all paths of life we tried and supported this upsurge, did not let the fire go out and, to the best of our ability, laid stone by stone in a common community, in a common building, like no matter how modest the strength of each of us... We believed in the power of the unity of labor..." In his autobiography, he notes: "... Maybe from my ancestors "..." the confidence is alive in me that without freedom there is no no real happiness, no real life neither for man nor for humanity." The book of memoirs "Notes of a Writer" shows the best personality traits and talent of N.D. Teleshov: his modesty, friendly observation, love for literature and fellow writers... Summing up his life, he proudly said: “...to be a Russian writer, no matter what, is great happiness in life.”

N.D. Teleshov was primarily a short story writer. His realistic stories are distinguished by the ordinariness of their plots (without sharp turns and intricate moves in the development of the plot), restraint, and outwardly dispassionate manner of narration.

Writer, literary and public figure N.D. Teleshov settled in two storey building in Swedish style with large terraces and balconies, with a flower garden reaching to the lake. A native Muscovite, he inherited the best features of a typical Moscow resident: hospitality, cordiality, ease of use, spiritual openness, and a penchant for charity.

His hospitable home often brought together young poets, writers, artists, artists, including: A.P. Chekhova, A.M. Gorky, I.A. Bunina, Vl. Mayakovsky, S. Yesenin, F.I. Shalyapina, S.V. Rachmaninov, V.I. Nemirovich-Danchenko, A.M. Vasnetsova, I.I. Levitan (materials about them are stored in the Academy library). Such an abundance of prominent people could hardly ever be met simultaneously in any other place and, moreover, in such a friendly, family atmosphere. Here they had fun like a country house: they played tennis, went boating, and in the evenings they sang, talked, and played funny “verbal” games.

The Teleshovs loved their Malakhovka and did a lot for it. With their funds, the Bykovskaya rural hospital and school were built. Their enthusiasm was apparently passed on to those around them. They were the first reason why I was drawn to Malakhovka creative intelligentsia capital, that local dachas were mainly inhabited by actors, writers, and artists. But the station near Moscow became not just an “out” place, but also a real summer artistic capital- hence the flourishing of the Summer Theater, the creation of the first rural gymnasium and much more.

The educational institutions located on the site of the former estate of N.D. have significantly enhanced the best cultural traditions of Teleshov. Teleshova.

On October 16, 1929, a Resolution of the Central Committee of the All-Union Communist Party of Bolsheviks was adopted, by which the state of physical education in the country was recognized as unsatisfactory and the relevant bodies were invited to as soon as possible correct this situation.

Moscow Regional College of Physical Culture
In pursuance of this Resolution, the Moscow Regional Executive Committee and the Moscow Department of Public Education in May 1931 decided to organize a pedagogical college located in former estate Teleshova, department of physical education. The first intake of students consisted of only 60 boys and girls.

However, such a small department could not solve the problem of training specialists in physical education for the Moscow region (especially teachers and instructors).

In 1933, the pedagogical technical school was transformed into the Moscow Regional College of Physical Culture named after. Antipova. It included the Moscow Evening College of Physical Culture. In order to train future teachers of the technical school, a special study group with an extended training period. Its graduates subsequently formed the main backbone of the teaching staff.

The first review of students' sports skills took place in 1934 at the First Spartakiad of institutes and technical schools of physical culture. He won first place in the team competition, the technical school delegation won the Red Banner Challenge and received a prize of 10 thousand rubles. Subsequently, technical school students, as a rule, became winners of such competitions. Since 1935, the technical school has been participating in an independent column in the all-Moscow parade of athletes.

In January 1935, the technical school was militarized. A combat battalion is formed from the personnel, higher military training is introduced for young men and insignia for the command staff from among teachers and students. Since April, all personnel have been transferred to the camp. By order of the regiment of the Moscow Proletarian Division, students of the technical school are thanked for their exemplary training. The call of the country's leadership for young people to master defense specialties found a wide response among students. Large group students graduate with honors from parachutist courses at the Ukhtomsky flying club. The technical school hosts competitions in grenade throwing and shooting.

Social competition is developing in best group, resulting in a significant increase in overall academic performance. Students make a collective decision to quit smoking and strictly adhere to it. The students are equipping a football field, an athletics track, and playgrounds, and are renovating classrooms.

In 1937, enrollment in the technical school increased to 215 people, and Spartak courses were opened. By qualification teaching staff, level of educational, military-patriotic and sports work The technical school becomes a recognized leader in the country among secondary specialized educational institutions.

In 1939, in connection with events in Poland and the Finnish company, some teachers and a group of student activists were drafted into the Red Army. The technical school received many thanks from the command of the military units in which they served. The Finnish company set the technical school the task of significantly improving the ski training of students. A ski battalion is formed from the technical school personnel.

With the beginning of the Great Patriotic War in the summer and autumn of 1941, almost all male students and 90% of male teachers were drafted into the active army. The rest are being mobilized on the labor front to build a protective zone around Moscow. Almost all the premises and territory of the technical school are occupied by military units. The physical education technical school from Ruza, Moscow region, is being transferred to Malakhovka.

Despite the difficult war years, educational process continues at the technical school. The duration of training is reduced to two years. In 1942, only 16 specialists graduated from the technical school. In the same year he was transferred here preparatory department GTSOLIFKa.

In 1944, the military units stationed here vacated the premises of the technical school. This makes it possible to carry out larger set students (about 200 people).

In 1945, teachers and students were demobilized from the army and returned to the technical school. Many of them received government awards, including posthumously...Students, together with teachers, conduct great renovation work in the technical school buildings, fuel and vegetables are prepared.

Pages of our history...
In 2008, Igor Moiseev turned 102 years old. His name is included in the Guinness Book of Records for creative longevity and record number delivered works: 300.

Once he was approached by athletes from the Malakhovsky Physical Education College, who annually sent applications to participate in parades, but were refused.

Moiseev took on the Malakhovites and created a composition for them, completing it not in the fifteen minutes provided to the provincial technical school, but in seven. But these were seven minutes of such strength, dynamics and energy that the composition created a real sensation. Next year, sports organizations are lining up for Moiseev to ask him to prepare performances for the parade.
