Tempe Family YMCAVolleyball Venue in Tempe, AZ

With 18 years immersed in volleyball and 8 years of coaching experience between private & semi-private lessons, recreational and Club volleyball, I look forward to helping all levels reach their potential and personal goals! I offer private volleyball lessons for beginner to intermediate athletes who want to build strong fundamentals, improve confidence, and elevate their overall game. While I specialize in setting and libero training, I coach all positions and tailor each session to the athlete’s individual needs and goals. My training approach combines technical skill development, game awareness, and agility, strength, and conditioning to help players become well-rounded and game-ready. I use a wide range of professional training equipment—including targets, passing trainers, setter and hitter tools, and portable pop-up nets—to create engaging, effective sessions whether we’re in a gym or training on the go. I offer one-on-one and small group lessons, allowing for focused instruction and personalized feedback. My goal is to help athletes grow not just as volleyball players, but as confident competitors who understand the game and enjoy the process of improving.

"Coach Aj is an excellent coach. Going into playing club for the first time I had no idea what to expect, coach Aj helped me not only in my volleyball skills and reffing but also in adjusting to a new environment. Coach Aj noticed my potential and pushed me to be the best player I could be by constantly encouraging and supporting me. She constructed drills that actually improved our gameplay and instilled work ethic and focus from all of my team. Coach Aj had helped me gain so much confidence in my skills and is overall a well rounded leader.
