"My advice to players - Get out of your own head and start telling yourself you can do anything. Players tend to block themselves from success out of fear, and I think it is important for them to start hearing from their coaches and themselves, that they can do it."

Catalyst Soccer Testimonials:

• Shawn C. - "Kathleen exceeded all the expectations I had going into the trainings. She noticed and fixed things my daughter was doing in her running that I never saw. All her sessions were very dynamic and Kathleen was always very engaged. I never felt like the sessions were scripted or rote. I also loved that she took my daughter to task a few times on her effort and focus in training, which I think she ultimately benefited from."
• Achim D. - "My son loved working with Kathleen. She is very energetic and gave him homework which he worked on. His 1 mile time reduced by almost 30 seconds."
• Lisa K. - "Kathleen not only focuses on my son's physical game she works on his mental game. She has helped him become more confident in his decision making while improving his touch on the ball."
