    I am an energetic, motivated, passionate and professional volleyball coach you strives in helping athletes to improve their volleyball skills and have fun while doing it. I am a very creative and resourceful coach who coaches according to the needs, skills and capability of the "athlete", whether it's a child athlete or a division one athlete. My lessons are focused on incorporating all the major fundamentals of volleyball: passing, setting, hitting, serving, blocking and footwork into my lessons. They are thought provoking with the internet to help build and elaborate on key volleyball terms and concepts in a fun and lively environment which fosters an open mindset and growth.
