Private Lessons & Coaches in O'fallon, MO

I have been playing volleyball for 10 years and coaching for 6 years. After playing setter in high school I instantly began coaching for my old club team. I have coach everything from middle school girls, 14-18s boys club, and college kids who wanted to start a club team at Maryville University.

I’m a dual-certified Pickleball Coach (PPR and IPTPA) who loves helping beginners and early-intermediate players level up fast. I specialize in teaching 2.5–3.5 players the what, how, and why of good pickleball so you build real skills and confidence—not just shots that work “sometimes.” I’ve coached hundreds of players at Vetta Sports and even taught as a Visiting Pickleball Instructor at Club Med Punta Cana. I bring drills and techniques I’ve learned directly from top pros and tailor them to make learning easier, clearer, and more fun. I’m a competitive 4.0+ player with medals from regional tournaments and experience on the inaugural St. Louis Shock Minor League Pickleball team. I also use tech and new AI tools to help pinpoint the quickest ways for you to improve. Let’s get you playing smarter, stronger, and having more fun on the court.

"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.

"Very knowledgeable! Got me ready for the summer in just two lessons.

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!!!

"During the 2025 season of volleyball I’ve gotten to know coach Shaw more as a person and as a coach. She truly is one of the best coaches I’ve had over the years. She’s helped me and many other players with their progress in volleyball. Coach Shaw has connected with us as a group and I hope to have her continue to be apart of CPA’s volleyball team. - Alexia’

"I’m so serious when I say working out here is my favorite part of the day. Anthony (and all the coaches) are amazing, I love the sense of community, and the workouts are insanely fun. And most importantly, it WORKS. I’ve been training here for a little over 2 years and I’m lifting heavier than I ever thought I could.

With years of experience both playing and managing golf operations, I am passionate about helping golfers of all skill levels improve their game and enjoy the sport more. My coaching focuses on building a consistent, repeatable swing while simplifying the game so students can see results on the course, not just on the driving range.

"First golf lesson ever. I was hitting the ball better than I ever have after one simple tip I was given. I actually hit my 7 iron 160 yards with a 5 yard draw and the first time I did it I said “wow I’ve never felt that before”. Can’t beat the feeling.
