Something from my Heart.Gordana - the true Warrior Spirit. I met a wonderful group of folks in Canada on February 14, 2009 and the hits just keep on coming.
Gordana, was one of those wonderful people whose spirit fills the room... You know some one special is inside the box, you sense it first, as a coach you look about the room and size up what you have to work with, and then eye contact is made - she stared right back at me, almost through me. I wondered how the seminar would go for her.
Not once did I ask her to tell me her story - although I knew she had one to tell. I supposed the time spent over the weekend would allow it to naturally reveal itself to me. It did not. She kept her story close to the vest as though she were playing a tight hand of poker. Not once did she complain, not once did she retreat, not once did she leave me room for doubt, and not once could I have thought what it was like to be in her shoes.
Something had changed her, something indeed... I watched this lady workout and display a full 16 hours of work and body movements. I watched her step up and tirelessly approach the work of the day - she also intently hung on ever Texas sized syllable i spoke. Only in the last hour as I prepared to go did I learn her tale, her epic battle, the one she now fearlessly rages. No wonder the gymnastic cert to her was simply a walk in the park, she had been busy defeating things far more difficult than gymnastic moves. Gordana has been busy about getting on with life, and killing cancer.
Gordana - you have all my respects, all my admiration, and all my heart felt love. I encourage those of you to read her story and read her blog. She is a lady, a mother, a wife, and a wonderful athlete. The pleasure was all mine young lady.

Letter to the Editor
"Hey Coach Tucker,
Coach Glassman told us at our level one cert that we had to set out every morning and do everything in our power to give people greatness. That's something that really stuck with me and it's something that you don't often see. But you do it. In fact, you do it better than anyone that's ever coached me and believe me when I tell you, that's a serious compliment.
If I can hit a nice back lever and knock out 10 free standing handstand push-ups, fix my kip and hold a good L-sit for 1 minute sometime in the next 3 months (with some hard work of course) I'll feel as though I got a lot out of your cert. If I can properly convey all the information and techniques that you taught us over to my clients, I'll be delighted. But, If at some point in my career as a trainer and a coach, someone walks up to me and tells me that I'm half the coach that Jeff Tucker is, I'll consider myself a very successful man. I thank you from the bottom of my heart. I loved your cert.
