Born in Alsace, Kelly Sotière traveled the greens alongside her father from an early age, before starting to play at the Golf School where she participated in her first French Championship, at the age of 11.

Kelly Sotière then devotes herself fully to golf. After a scientific baccalaureate, she took the entrance exam to BPJEPS Golf. At 18, she entered training at CREPS in Montpellier, then passed the 2nd level of education to do high-level coaching. Passionate about the mental strength that must be deployed in sport, she completes her training with certification in "Sport Psychology and Mental Preparation".

Kelly Sotière spent her first years teaching internationally, first in Portugal and then in Turkey, before returning to France. Seduced by the excellence and ambition of the Terre Blanche Golf Academy, she joined the teams in 2015 as Golf Groups and Events Coordinator, before becoming Head of the Terre Blanche sports project until 2018.

Meeting with Kelly Sotière, Proette at Terre Blanche Golf Academy, technical teacher and mental coach

“Specialized in technical education and mental coaching, my mission is to optimize the performance of everyone on the course. This work requires a perfect knowledge of the players, and a long-term follow-up to know their system and to offer them the best adapted tools. The human relationship is essential here, both in mental preparation, breathing techniques and even thought management. I thus develop with each player a personal game strategy and the implementation of an adapted training. "
