My daughter really likes taking coaching from coach Katie. Katie does a great job of breaking down the info so that my daughter can understand what a movement should look like and why it’s important for the movement to be done properly!

Katie came in to run our indoor winter clinics at Niles Park District. She did an excellent job breaking down the drills for players in 1st-8th grade. Katie's personality made it fun and inviting for all ability levels. She is a very enthusiastic coach and has the ability to connect with players of all ages. We were very thankful to have found her and look forward to working with Katie again in the future!

Katie has trained my daughter on and off for a few years. She has a great connection with her and Katie strives to make sure she works hard and improves as a player!

My daughter Raven made the South Elgin JV 2 team. Raven is a 14 year old freshman. Raven told my wife if not for Katie she would not have made the team. Ravens hitting had been challenging and we had a hitting coach prior to Katie. Raven still could not connect consistently. He was just not able to get the improvement we were searching for. Just a few sessions with Katie, and Raven is making contact, and hitting the ball with power. Raven is glad we found Katie and so are we. Katie is challenging, enthusiastic and caring. The attitude is fantastic and gets Raven wanting to go to hitting practice. You need a coach. Katie is the one you need.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is as low as I can make it. Always looking for referrals and depending on how many can get you a free lesson!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Let’s evaluate what you want out of lessons. What path you are looking towards and then go from there. First lesson is a meeting and see where we need to start.
How did you get started doing this type of work?
Just love the game! I want everyone to have the same passion and drive I have for this game.
