About
I am a former professional volleyball player with over 11 years of national and international experience. I have had the privilege of training under esteemed coaches, including the leadership of world-renowned Julio Velasco, Zoran Gajić, and Slobodan Kovač.
For the past 10 years, I have held an international volleyball coaching certificate and have successfully trained hundreds of young athletes, using scientific methods to help them distinguish themselves and succeed in their future endeavors. Currently, I run my own volleyball club in Newport Coast.
If you need assistance with private coaching or are looking for a strong volleyball program to develop your skills, feel free to contact me. I can help you reach your full potential in the sport.
