“My goal is to coach them up to be in that zone as often as possible. So why would I want to take the joy out of it?” She has embraced unconventional approaches. Her gymnasts take personality tests and self-defense classes; they hold trivia and public speaking competitions.

“Why would she want to be another John Wooden,” she recalled him saying, “when she could be a great Valorie Kondos Field?”“You need to pedal faster,” Kondos Field shouted from the back of a bike taxi whizzing through New York City traffic.and Madison Kocian howled with laughter. An appointment loomed and Kondos Field loathes being late. With no time to wait for a cab, she had hailed a passing bike taxi, calling for Ross and Kocian to join her.
“It’s so obvious how this happened,” Kondos Field said of Nassar’s abuse. “We put winning, which equates to money, above human beings. The very children we were supposed to protect.” “It’s more important to develop trust with them than to dictate how they act and what they say,” Kondos Field said. “Because if you do that, then they will only be compliant. They won’t be truthful.”From the Pacific Ocean to bustling Los Angeles neighborhoods, she had a panoramic view from the windows.
“I realized that I wasn’t gonna die from my breast cancer,” Kondos Field said. “I also realized that we all have an expiration date. I just didn’t know when mine was.” UCLA gymnastics coach Valorie Kondos Field reacts as the Utah State gymnastics team honors her during a retirement ceremony at Pauley Pavilion in March.
