A coach, an athlete, and a roller derby player.

Booty Quake (#8) started playing roller derby with the Terminal City Rollergirls in 2007, and skated with Toronto Roller Derby in 2015-2016. She has led and coached at all levels over the years: as League President, captain of the All-Star Team, Head Coach of Fresh Meat, and Head of Training. (Not all at the same time – that would be nuts!).

Effective off-skate training and an extensive sports background (NCAA Division 1 Rowing, among others) have had a major impact on Booty’s own success in derby, and she has helped thousands of athletes around the world on that journey too. Booty loves using her knowledge to help other skaters grow. Roller Derby Athletics is her vehicle to bring this knowledge and skill to the wider derby community.

Booty is a co-founder of charity organization Girls On Track Foundation, which seeks to help keep girls playing sport through their teens, by improving awareness and access to junior roller derby! 

With pal Luludemon, Booty is also a co-founder of Rolla Skate Club in Vancouver.

Booty currently lives and skates in Vancouver, BC. When she’s not skating the sea wall, you can probably find her hunting down the city’s best bourbon cocktail or hiking in the mountains. As she says in her training videos, she’s here to “kick your ass, so you can go kick someone else’s.”
