More About Coach Kate

I am a former collegiate volleyball player with more than 15+ years of private lesson coaching experience and 8 years of club coaching experience. I am a USAV Impact Certified coach. I have coached girls and boys ages 5 years old to collegiate level.

I played at the University of Wisconsin-Whitewater from 2004-2007. While there I played libero for one year and was a setter for the other three years. I was named All-Conference in 2006 and 2007 and I was named 2nd team All-American in 2007. My team won the Division III National Championship in 2005, we took 3rd place in 2006 and were runner's up in 2007. This fall, October 2023, I have the great honor of being inducted into the UW-W Athletic Hall of Fame.

A typical session is 60 minutes long. I work with the athletes to perfect their fundamental volleyball skills. High quality repetitions, goal setting and intensive skill breakdown are incorporated into each lesson. I give my athletes simple tasks to focus on which they can integrate into their high school or club practices after they leave the lesson. I also utilize videography to anaylze the athletes movement patterns and give visual feedback to help them develop their skills more quickly. If requested I will add in agility and plyometric training as necessary.

Client Reviews

Just our first lesson, but I was impressed. Very quickly adjusted drills to skill level. Had several good tips on issues that I had seen but not had the background to identify. Gave good feedback, repeated points to work on, and was very positive. Great facility and tools also. Awesome first lesson.

My daughter was so excited to work with Kate, my husband watched the session and thought Kate was excellent!

Thanks, Kate!

Coach Kate is a fantastic coach and trainer. When she sees something that needs to be corrected, she questions the athlete as to what they could change/adjust to improve the outcome versus just telling them what to do. She spoke with our daughter about her short and long term goals as well as what would be needed to achieve those goals. After one session, our daughter, who has played club volleyball for 5 years, declared Coach Kate to be her favorite coach. We have already booked more sessions.

Coach Kate did a great job of assessing where our son was at with a variety of skills and honed in on the key areas. She gave him useful feedback to incorporate on his own practice time. She was positive and connected well with him. He really worked hard, learned a lot and enjoyed the session.

Coach Kate does an awesome job coaching in the areas in which Sarah needs to work on!

Coach Kate can help you break bad habits! She gives you positive feedback and if you have a hard time with a skill the way she has presented it, she changes the way she presents it. That, is a great coach.

Kate was extremely professional, knowledgeable and helpful. On our first lesson, she showed our daughter techniques that no one else had taught her. The one-on-one time with Kate was very helpful and we can't wait to see her again.

Coach Kate was excellent with Avary! A solid hour of Great tips and training!

Coach Kate was great with my daughter today for her 1st lesson. Can't wait to have more lessons. Went back to some basic to build up on. Coach Kate is all about the athlete!

Kate has done a great job of helping my daughter internalize her hitting approach. One-on-one drills have helped to correct issues with form immediately so that she is practicing correct form and foot work. I can see the improvement in my daughter’s play as she puts into practice what she learned with Kate during the team practice with her club. I highly recommend one-on-one lessons with Kate to complement team play. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her lessons with Kate
Kate’s volleyball lessons are one on one in a private gym. The training and atmosphere she offers will immediately improve your child’s skills, comfort and confidence. She directly works with and evaluates the athlete. She showed my daughter what she was doing wrong, how it should be done and most importantly, corrected her through repetition. On a club or school team, a coach does not have time to individually critique each athlete regularly. You will see a tremendous gain in your child’s performance after working with Kate. I recommend her for all levels of athletes. Kate is fantastic!
My girls have been taking lessons from Kate for 6 years and counting. She is always available and flexible. My oldest has recently completed her first year of collegiate volleyball and Kate played a large role in her recruitment and success. We continue to see her on a monthly basis to prep for the next high school season. I recommend Kate to any up and coming players and their parents who are looking for strong technique with basic skills, opportunity for reps, and great work ethic.
My daughter has trained with Kate for a couple of years and she has gained incredible skill and confidence as a result of the instruction in setting, hitting, blocking, serving and back row defense. Kate’s mastery of volleyball training flows naturally from her background in physical therapy and personal experience as a setter for a national championship university team. Kate has done a wonderful job of balancing patience when my daughter is struggling with a new skill and challenging my daughter when she has mastered a skill set. We would highly recommend Kate for position training.
We have been seeing Kate for private volleyball lessons for the past few years. I have two daughters who play and they both have found Kate to be an invaluable resource for fine tuning their skills. One of the girls has gone on to play for the DePaul Club Volleyball team and still tries to get home to attend a lesson with Kate now and then. Kate is nothing but professional, will push the player to succeed to the best of their abilities, and genuinely cares for each of her athletes.
