She spent the next 15 years home schooling and coaching her three children, two of whom played number 2 for their local high school tennis squads. In 2013 Cindy discovered the wildly popular sport of pickleball. As a Co-Ambassador in Woodbridge, VA from 2017-2021, Cindy was instrumental in working with the local Pickleball Community and County Officials to usher in the first outdoor dedicated pickleball courts in the Northern VA area. She earned her IPTPA instructor certification in 2018 and soon after began teaching adult pickleball for Prince William County. In 2021, Cindy took on the role of head pickleball instructor at the Lee District Rec Center (Fairfax, VA), continuing to conduct private and group clinics throughout NOVA until making the permanent move back to Richmond in 2022. Since her return, Cindy has been teaching pickleball to both children and adults in and around the RVA. She has successfully taken beginners through to becoming competitive pickleball tournament players up to the 4.0 level. Cindy’s brand, Pickleball-Zen, focuses on correct technique and body awareness to promote mindful movement for overall health and wellbeing.

Meet Margo, a Golf Coach in Richmond, Virginia.

GofDoc (Margo) believes there is no one ideal swing to fit every golfer. Golf is a game of misses and mistakes. Nobody has perfected the game, and no one ever will. The key is not to try to perfect the game but to play it. Practice does not make perfect, it makes permanent. I teach individuals of all ages and abilities. I try extremely hard to keep things simple. I want my students to develop a simple, fundamental approach to swinging the golf club and reaching a student's goal in golf.
