""I sought out Carol as my mentor into sound healing & vocal training as part of my own spiritual process to combine my spiritual gifts with music. My first session with Carol was effortless. She encompassed: meditation, sound healing, breath work, and vocal training to get a full spectrum of where I was spiritually in my process and musically. I showed her my past work, my compositions, performances and voice. It was not only thought provoking but a certain validation I could only get from a professional in the industry.

Transitioning from a lifelong tennis journey, I've spent the last two years deeply immersed in the world of pickleball, and now, as a 4.5 player, coaching is my primary passion. My own start in pickleball came from lessons with a skilled local instructor, and I've since played in various tournaments. This hands-on experience shaped my down-to-earth coaching methodology. When you train with me, we'll begin at the foundation, just as I did: starting short, with underhand strokes, and progressively moving back. I'll guide you through essential serves, introducing you to specific serve techniques. Each session will kick off by understanding and evaluating your existing skills, after which we'll journey deeper into technical expertise. My goal is to craft lessons tailored to your needs and ensure that, through my coaching, your love and proficiency in pickleball grows exponentially.

"Holly is very concise and makes even work outs fun. We have a great time and hope to play with a group soon.
