High Repetition, Personal Feedback
Lessons Available for:
*Please note that private lessons are dependent upon gym and coach availability. Certain times of the year will have more availability than others.
Up to four players and a coach. Players grouped to enhance complementary skills (preferred): setter and hitters, passers and setter, hitters and defenders, blocking, etc. Little fatigue means high quality repetitions, also game-like visualization benefits, and value of camaraderie. Lowest individual focus, lowest amount of repetitions, lowest personal cost.
Two players and a coach. Players are paired in ways that will enhance both the quality of repetition and the ability of the coach to teach complementary or comparable skills. Suggested pairings are setter with a hitter, hitter with a libero/DS, or two players of the same position. There is some value in visualization also, watching the other player attempt the given skills. Shared individual focus, shared repetitions, lower cost per player.
The player is by herself with a coach. High quantity of repetition,
individual one-on-one focus means personalized instruction and attention.
Excellent for setters. Players with beginning to moderate skills in passing, serving, and hitting fundamentals. Highest individual focus, highest repetitions (which may cause fatigue), highest cost per player, lowest game-like visualization.
The benefits to signing up for private volleyball lessons are tremendous, but some of the most common benefits that players see from adding private lessons to their routine include:
Restore Confidence: Private volleyball lessons really give a player the extra attention to fine tune their talents and skills, while turning weaknesses into strong points. One-on-one private coaching increases an athlete’s ability to reach their full potential, while targeting weaker areas on the court, and improving those areas by targeting a plan specifically made for the player.
Prepare For School Teams: Maintain your skill level and keep your body in tip top shape for the time that your school’s volleyball season comes around. Our coaches provide inspiration and motivation that not only push players, but also help instill confidence in their game. When returning to your school’s volleyball team, you will be more than ready when you hit the court for practice, but also for your games!
Position: With the various positions found in volleyball, every player is trained differently, based on their position on the court. Not only is every player different, due to their own strengths and weakness, but each position varies. By combining training for both the player’s individual talents + fine tuning their position on the court, our private volleyball lessons are perfectly catered to give you the highest increase in your game.
Private volleyball lessons can be held at various locations including Cedar Park Rec Center (CPRC), Premiere Athletic Complex (PAC), Round Rock Sports Center (RRSC), Summit Christian Academy (SCA) and Austin Sports Center (ASC). The coach will work with you to coordinate availability and location.

That’s actually a really hard question to answer. All coaches everywhere are allowed to set their own prices for their lessons. Some coaches include the court rental fee in their hourly rate, others don’t. Often the difference in the rates comes down to experience. A coach with several years of experience would presumably charge more for their time than a newer coach. Coaches with more experience often can pinpoint biomechanical issues much quicker than new coaches. With such a coach, it’s expected that they would be able to get your athlete quickly on the right track. If your child is just beginning, perhaps the experience level of a coach isn’t as important as getting your child court time to practice serving and passing.

Each coach is different, but personally, I prefer the parents to be there. Some coaches REQUIRE the parents be there. In any case, if the parents/siblings/friends can help shag balls, that just means more time the coach can focus on your athlete and less on gathering balls from every corner of the gym.
You are welcome to wear whatever you wish. Most students wear their volleyball practice gear (shoes, kneepads, tshirt, spandex). As you may be working up a sweat, wear appropriate clothing for the sport. Clothing that is too loose or hair accessories that keep falling out can probably be left at home so your focus is on the lesson and not always fiddling with your outfit.
Absolutely bring your own water or sports drink. Staying hydrated and energized is VERY important to staying focused and practicing at the top of your game. If you feel you need a few pieces of energy bar to keep you going strong, certainly you are welcome to grab a bite partway through your lesson.
