Hello, I'm Kathy! As a competitive pickleball player with a 4.46 rating, I've dedicated over three years to perfecting my game. My journey in sports education stretches over two decades, thanks to my background as a PE teacher. This unique blend of teaching and passion makes me the coach I am today. In our sessions together, I'll guide you through refining your swings, honing your hitting drills, getting that grip just right, and we'll even dink a little back and forth. To wrap things up, we'll dive into some quick drill games to make sure you leave the court feeling more confident than ever. I'm here to ensure you not only grasp the techniques but truly embrace the spirit of pickleball!
"I highly recommend Kathy for pickleball lessons. She is very thorough and professional.

Former DII left-handed pitcher, outfielder, first basemen, slapper, and power hitter with experience coaching 16U–18U travel ball and providing private lessons. I focus on proper form, conditioning, and mental toughness to build strong, healthy, and confident players. With advanced knowledge of thoracic outlet syndrome, arm care, and recovery, I emphasize injury prevention and sustainable performance. My coaching also includes a classroom-style training in addition to physical lessons — learning pitch strategy (this matters in ALL positions), game awareness, and how to play to your strengths. I’m passionate about helping athletes of all ages reach their goals — on the field, in the classroom, and through the recruiting process.
"I really liked how Coach Goose introduced me to pitching. I was not sure if this is what I wanted to do or if I wanted to focus on catching. Though I decided to catch the skills and knowledge she gave me will help me no matter where I play on the field!

"I enjoyed how Kevin broke the lesson into small, manageable exercises, which really helped me grasp some of the finer points. Though I still need to work on understanding different clubs better, I feel like I left with a clearer approach and understanding of basics.
