Testimonials

“Tina’s coaching style is one that guides and nurtures your own self-drive to be the best version of yourself, without demanding it.  Her approach to her relationships with her athletes is always to have fun first, then to grow confidence and passion for this amazing sport.  I will always be grateful for Tina’s holistic approach, support where its needed, tough love where its needed and commitment to always putting her athletes happiness first.

As a remote athlete you can expect excellent communication and cues from Tina.  She is committed to consulting with you on how you are feeling, identifying any gaps, breaking it down and then working with you to fix them.  I find Tina’s description to remediate technical issues and her cures via correspondence very easy to get the knack of.  You will feel listened to, and will feel like part of the SHQ family from the start.  Going to competitions and camps with the SHQ group you will feel like part of an awesome fun high-energy team that will be cheering for you all the way.”
