About Kaitlyn

What students say...

"The lesson with Kaitlyn was quite good, especially appreciated how she focused on specific techniques that helped my shooting accuracy. Though I wasn’t expecting much, I did pick up a few useful pointers, though more drills could really help I think. Still, it’s worth giving her a try if you want a coach who's attentive and steady.
