An Exclusive Chat with Kyla Ross and Simone Biles
Kyla Ross: Hey Simone! It’s been ages since we had a proper catch-up outside of the gym. How have you been?
Simone Biles: Kyla! I know, it feels like forever. I’ve been doing great, just busy as usual. You know how it is. What about you? How’s life after retiring from elite gymnastics?
Kyla Ross: It’s been a whirlwind, honestly. I’ve had more time to focus on my coaching at UCLA and wrapping up my studies. Speaking of which, how’s your new training routine going?
Simone Biles: It’s intense, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. You know me—can’t sit still for long! But seriously, your transition from gymnast to coach has been inspiring. What’s the most rewarding part for you?
Kyla Ross: Definitely seeing the growth and confidence in the girls I coach. It’s fulfilling to pass on the knowledge and watch them shine. But Simone, you’re still stealing the show with your routines. How do you keep pushing the boundaries of what’s possible?
Simone Biles: Thanks, Kyla! It’s all about setting new goals and staying curious. Every time I master a skill, I start thinking, “What’s next?” Oh, and having a great support system, of course. How do you balance coaching, studying, and, you know, having a life?
Kyla Ross: Hah, lots of coffee and tight scheduling! Honestly, finding a rhythm took time—still adjusting. Any downtime is precious. Speaking of downtime, have you picked up any new hobbies?
Simone Biles: Funny you ask! I’ve started experimenting with cooking, though I’m not amazing at it yet. I might need to steal some recipes from you. What about you, any hidden talents you’re working on?
Kyla Ross: Ha! I wouldn’t say hidden talents, but I’ve been dabbling in photography. It’s a whole different creative outlet that I’ve come to love. Maybe I can snap some action shots of you next time you’re flipping through the air!
Simone Biles: That would be awesome! Combining your new photography skills with gymnastics? It’s a perfect match. We should definitely plan a day for that. Thanks for the chat, Kyla. As always, you’re a breath of fresh air.
Kyla Ross: Anytime, Simone. Let’s not make it so long between catch-ups next time. Talk soon!
