Kate is very professional and caters each lesson to each individual's needs. I feel like she really tries to get to know me as a skater and has been able to teach me proper technique, understanding the way your body moves and how it affects different aspects of your skating, and self confidence. She has helped me personally make great strides in my skating and I could not be more thankful. An example of this is I had been trying to get my 3-turns down for 6 months or so and after just 1 lesson with Kate, I was able to do my 3-turns. I would recommend her to anyone adult or child. While I started skating as an adult, I have seen her work with young children where she exercises great patience and with other kids that range throughout teenage years where she pushes them to be the best they can with a positive attitude.

Kate was a terrific instructor that gave clear and concise directions. I was skating with a lot of confidence and learned how to stop like a pro within a quick session.

Kate is a tremendously talented coach. I’ve watched her teach skate classes with many kids at various levels as well as give private lessons with my daughter, and her ability to connect with kids of all ages and stages is phenomenal. She always has a positive attitude and a smile on her face, is quick to pick them up when they fall, as well as encourages them to try their best. She gives parents great updates as students progress and is extremely organized with her communication and availability. We are blessed to have found such a wonderful skate coach!

We have had a wonderful experience with Kate each week for the past 6 months! She is encouraging, helpful, positive, patient, understanding, and friendly. Audrey has enjoyed learning how to ice skate and learning more advanced skills. If one method to learn a new skill isn’t working well, Kate tries to find another way to teach it. Lessons with Kate are so fun and my daughter looks forward to them each week!
