KAREN JOHNSON

Coaching and athletics has been a large part of my life, and my families. Supportive coaches bolster confidence and encourage you to try your best, to stretch your capabilities.  But coaches can also be detrimental to an athletes confidence. I’ve experienced both and seen both for my children. So my mission as a coach has always been to be supportive of each of the team member’s no matter what level or capability. Provide support though instruction and encouragement to reach new goals and excel on their own level and not worry about how that might compare with others on the team.
