Whether you're picking up a cue for the first time or refining your game for competition, Karen brings decades of world-class experience directly to you.
Karen's approach to coaching is built on the same principles that carried her from a snooker club in Bourne to the BCA Hall of Fame — clarity, patience, and an unshakeable belief that every player has more in them than they realise.
Whether you're a complete beginner or a seasoned competitor, Karen meets you exactly where you are and builds from there. No shortcuts. No fluff. Just real coaching from someone who has lived every stage of this game.
Good fundamentals beat natural talent every time. Karen focuses on building a technically sound game from the ground up.
The best shot is one you commit to. Karen coaches the mental side of pool as seriously as the physical — focus, composure, and match temperament.
Every session has a purpose. Karen structures lessons so players leave with clear, actionable improvements they can practice immediately.
Karen draws on 30+ years of elite competition to give students insight that no textbook can provide.
All sessions are tailored to your skill level — beginner through advanced. Every student gets Karen's full attention and a personalised game plan.
Train face-to-face with Karen at the table. The most immersive coaching experience — ideal for players serious about rapid improvement.
World-class coaching from anywhere in the world. Karen works with you via video — perfect for players who travel or can't train locally.
