Softball has never been a hobby for me. I have always had a passion for the sport. I love coaching because I get to help other girls build their strength, confidence, and love for the game. Many amazing coaches (Mackenzie Vandergeest, Jamee Juarez, Whitney Baker, Anjelica Selden, etc...) helped me to achieve my softball goals and I am so thankful for them, I see coaching as a way to give back to the game for everything that it has given me.
I have 12 years coaching experience. I have been a pitcher for over 15 years myself (I still pitch in an adult fastpitch league). I have trained and played at the highest level in softball (International softball). Being a woman coach gives me the ability to help young girls with the mental and physical ascpects of the game because I have walked in their "cleats" so to speak. Building confidence is a very important aspect of being a successful pitcher.

First Lesson is always primarily an assesment lesson. I spend most of the time watching mechanics, looking for problems with their form, and evaluating their different pitches (if they have more than a fastball). I also spend time talking with my new client about what their goals are. Do you want to increase speed, strength, or endurance? Do you want to improve on accuracy, ball spin, or movement?
I have worked with beginners to advanced pitchers and everything in between. I have worked with girls as young as 6-7 years old teaching them fundamentals. I have also worked with college women to improve velocity and movement.
Ask the instructor where they played college softball and who their pitching coaches were.
Try and find coaches who have played ProFastpitch or International softball.

I loved how every lesson I went to I continued to see huge improvements. Katie explains things in ways that are extremely helpful and easy to grasps. She also always makes sure that you feel comfortable which I always appreciate.
My daughter has been working with coach Katie for the last 9 months. My wife and I could not be happier with the progress our daughter has made as a pitcher under coach Katie’s guidance. It is remarkable the progression she has achieved from not knowing the basics of how to pitch when she started with Coach Katie to now being a dominate pitcher in her USA Softball Select games. We feel so lucky to have found coach Katie.
My daughter has learned so much.
Katie is patient and takes her time covering every aspect of pitching. She has great drills that keep the girls engaged and having fun. Having a catcher there adds to Katie’s ability to be able to stand by the pitcher and give step by step tips. Highly recommend!!! 🥎I've never been luckier in my life than to find Katie. She is so much better than other pitching coaches it's hard to explain. She cares for all of her pitchers and she really puts in the time to get her girls better. She always manages to have a catcher there and we appreciate it a lot. There's nothing we wouldn't do for our pitching coach.
My daughter has been taking pitching lessons from Katie for almost a year now and we couldn’t be more happy! Katie is incredibly knowledgeable and is constantly teaching my daughter different techniques and nuances to bring her pitching skill to the next level. The difference in my daughter’s performance is incredible! She has more control than ever before and throws 5 different pitches. She loves working with Katie and looks forward to her pitching lessons every week. We would highly recommend Katie!
Coach Katie is very fun and educational.
I like how she brings her own catcher so she is able to walk around and teach as I pitch. She has been able to help me gain speed and movement on my pitches!Katie coaches in a positive way that gets results. Both her Sherman Oaks and Glendale locations are nice. She is not a public park where the lights go off or there's no restrooms. She provides a catcher which let's me run errands if I need to why the lesson is going on. And she can really coach because she isn't catching. Her catcher is good and it really adds to the lesson.
What I liked about working with coach was that she was able to look at mechanics and analyze them for mistakes.
Katie is the best pitching coach I’ve ever had the pleasure to work with. She’s very patient, knowledgeable, and supportive. She takes the time to make sure you understand the basic fundamentals to perfect pitches. She can work with someone who has never pitched a day in their life to someone or who is looking to polish their arsenal.
Coach Katie is amazing!! I brought my little sister to her and they worked together for an entire season. Coach Katie is always professional, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable of her craft. Her dedication to her students is so evident! She not only taught my sister multiple pitches that my sister was able to execute but also encouraged her in such a positive way. My sister was almost at the point of quitting before Katie & Katie was able to reignite her love for the game & boost her confidence on & off the field. THANK YOU COACH KATIE!! 💜
What I liked most, is the knowledgeable instruction that was not only verbalized clearly, but also demonstrated in a way that was easy to understand. The manner in which the lessons are presented allow a beginner or someone who has been pitching for awhile to benefit from the instruction.
Katie is always incredibly attentive and patient with my daughter! We have been seeing her for two years now, and my daughter loves her weekly sessions. She's improved so much and her confidence has skyrocketed too! Thanks Katie!
She is very well as a pitching she asks you want pitches you have of course and if she see a little glitch in your pitching she always have different ways on fixing your mechanics and changing small things. She taught me many different ways to fix my pitching and I was so thankful for that because I would have a little bit more trouble because of my injury but she is amazing I honestly recommend her 100/100 !!!!
