Private Lessons & Coaches in Bridgeton, MO

With eight years of volleyball instruction, I foster skill and passion for the game. My coaching focuses on fundamentals, strategy, and building confident athletes. I believe in creating a fun and challenging environment where players thrive. I started learning how to play Volleyball in the 7th grade. Since my school didn’t have any volleyball programs for kids my age I wasn’t allowed to play until I got into high school. I was captain of varsity all my 4 years and my aces won my team 2nd place in districts. Our first ever trophy for girls Volleyball at my school. When I graduated I got asked by my high school to come back and help coach for the school. I felt a lot of gratitude about being able to help young girls who will soon be out into the real world and play for someone’s college. I promise I will teach you so many things about volleyball when you get out on the court you will be unstoppable!!!

"I was fortunate enough to meet Jeff at the Webster Tennis Center where he was doing some organized beginner classes. I had been struggling with progressing as an intermediate player and asked Jeff for some individual instruction. I was able to work with Jeff individually for a few sessions and saw immediate improvement in my play in the transition zone. Jeff was patient, kind, and made several excellent suggestions, that have helped me to develop more consistency in my play. Jeff also helped me to re-grip my paddle and discuss ways to weight the paddle to gain better control and to diminish stress on my elbow. After a few initial sessions, I was able to set up group lessons for several of my playing partners and the feedback has been glowingly positive. Jeff is knowledgeable and approachable in his instruction and I would absolutely recommend him for anyone looking to improve their game.
