Show Notes

Episode #124: Kurt Thomas’ legacy continues on through his gym, his gymnasts, his family, and his foundation. In this episode of Hustle and Pro, we talk with Beckie Thomas about her husband’s epic gymnastics career and larger-than-life persona.

We talk about Beckie’s background in dance, Kurt’s outstanding career, how she and Kurt met, the gym culture they built together and the difficult pain of losing Kurt in 2020.

This episode is personal to me. It hits home in many ways. Gymnastics was my first sport. It was my family’s business. It was my life as a young gymnast. It created my icons and shaped my body and work ethic. I understand Beckie’s loss, but from a different perspective entirely.

I hope you’ll listen and enjoy the story of Beckie and Kurt Thomas.
