I've played for most of my life. It's very fun and one of the best ways for me to enjoy life. Still playing now whenever I get the chance and I'm always looking to improve. This approach I like to extend to anyone I'm instructing. To help foster a love for the game, a good team work mindset, a desire to keep improving, and self belief and discipline. Coaching wise I've coached 6-8th grade boys for a season. Which was one of the best times I've had as of recent. Shout-out raptors.

Currently, I am the Chief Operator of Grit Athletics Performance Strength and Co-Operator of SAYA (student athlete youth academy), both based in the Merrimack Valley of Massachusetts. I am also the Defensive Coordinator at Lawrence HS (Lawrence, MA). I train mainly in Methuen and am also able to come to You! My goal is to help You, as an athlete or your team fill in the "g.a.p.s." in your (their) game. It is my belief that most football players can elevate their game with a shift to more skill work, pertinent to their position(s), and going through the process of becoming a true student of the game; players tend to execute "faster" and more consistently when they understand the details of the game, while also mastering the basics and fundamentals. My football coaching and training experience has spanned the NFL, semi-pro, college, high school, and middle school levels. In the professional arena, I have been a strength and conditioning coach for the Washington Redskins. I have been a strength, speed, and conditioning coach at Georgetown University; my teams have included Football, Men’s Lacrosse, Baseball, Women’s Soccer, Softball, Crew, Men’s and Women’s Track, Swimming and Diving, and Men’s Soccer. At the high school level, I have assumed roles as a Head Football Coach, Offensive Coordinator, Defensive Coordinator, Special Teams Coordinator, and a positional coach (Quarterbacks, Running Backs, Wide Receivers, Defensive Backs, and Linebackers); off the gridiron, I have been a physical education teacher, strength and conditioning coach and student adviser. I also have trained and coached at the middle school level: football, basketball, and physical education. I am certified through the National Academy of Sports Medicine as a Performance Enhancement Specialist and the National Strength and Conditioning Association as a Strength and Conditioning Specialist. Typical age groups include collegiate, high school, and middle school athletes. What makes me different? I have a effective and proven process to meet athletes where they are at and execute a game plan to elevate their ability, while building their growth, character, and football IQ! My role is to serve each athlete and assist their respective journeys. Thank You!

"Wendy has been a wonderful teacher. I started lessons close to retirement as I’ve always wanted to learn to play the piano. She is patient and skilled at helping to understand reading and playing music in a way that is understood easily. Highly recommend her as a teacher!

I love the friendly environment that comes with playing pickleball, and I strongly believe that it is one of the most unique sports, due to its ability to be learned quickly without much previous experience. I’m extremely patient, can work with individuals at any skill level, and can tailor lessons to individual needs/goals. Most importantly, I love pickleball and bring this passion to any and all pickleball-related events. If you’re a beginner or have never even touched a pickleball paddle, within a short amount of time you’ll be able to rally and start winning points. If you’re more advanced, you’ll perfect you’re serve, spin, and net game. All ages and skill levels welcome!
