Oh and about the nickname "Danimal," it's a funny story really. About 4 weeks after I first started playing pickleball, I entered a tournament and had to register with the USAPA (USA Pickleball Association). On the registration form, they ask you for a nickname, which I entered "Danimal" thinking no one would ever see it. Sure enough, during my first tournament, when being called over the loudspeakers for my matches, the announcer yelled Danimal rather than my first or last name. I was embarrassed and couldn't believe it. However, while walking to the courts, everyone high-fived me and told me they loved the nickname. That weekend, I won a gold medal in Men's Singles, Mixed Doubles, and Men's Doubles completing a Triple Crown in my first tournament! 🥇🥇🥇 Lo and behold, the nickname has stuck and is now foreverGo to profile

“I took 4 lessons with Catherine as a total beginner, and I looked forward to every one. Her instructions are simple and to the point, so I always knew exactly what to work on and never felt overwhelmed. She also built the lessons around my background & my goal of competing in the first tournament, instead of running a one-size-fits-all lesson. It was also just fun! She keeps the energy up, makes practice feel like play, and is really encouraging. Her feedback was detailed, and she shared helpful tips well beyond what I'd signed up for. I left each lesson feeling more confident and clearer on what to practice next.”Emily, student · shared by Catherine
