Erika Steiness
I have receive my USA Archery Level 3 certification in 2025 but have been coaching since 2022
I have been shooting Olympic Recurve since 2014 and Compound since 2024
My favorite thing about archery is, it’s a time in the day/week/month that I can focus only on the present, what is happening at that one moment. It also pushes me to learn more about something else besides my day to day and an opportunity to push myself both physically and mentally.
Archery has taught me to be patient with the process and with myself and with learning and growth progress.
Coaching has taught me that everyone can learn something new at any time. That there’s something amazing in seeing someone hit their goal, learn a new skill/have an “aha” moment, or hit a personal best.
My Coaching Philosophy is Mental and Physical/ability growth and strength are tied to one another and we must work on both to create progress towards our goals.
I also enjoy doing a lot of photography for the club.
