With a degree in physical education and exercise science I can help you master your shooting mechanics.

Each individual has specific needs. I will tailor the session for your needs, which could be discussed prior to booking the session. You can send me your game video or describe what your problems might be. I will evaluate and come up with a game plan to make your a more confident player and better shooter.

Client Reviews

I had a great session with Coach Grigory. I kept improving little by little. The way he teaches me was suitable for me. Orders was easy to understand and sense of humor. I'm definitely booking again and recommending to others.

I had a great experience with Gregory. I was taught many different things I didn't know about volleyball.

My 9 year old son had his first session with him and my wife and I were very pleased with how it went. My son felt positively as well and we plan to continue working with him. My son was able to start building confidence in his shooting skills and is looking forward to additional sessions.

Great coach who pays attention to detail

Coach Grigory was a great Coach! He helped my daughter to work on the mechanics of her volleyball game. He was patient, knowledgeable and fun! My daughter had a great time and is looking forward to more sessions with Coach Grigory. I definitely recommend him as a Coach.

Awesome lesson!!! My 17 years old daughter learned a lot of stuff that other coaches did not tell her she was doing wrong. In one lesson she did learn a lot!! Thanks so much coach!! I really recommend to take lessons with him if you really are interested in learning how to play the game well!!

Grigory was a great coach. We went from basic dribbling to player psychology on the court in 1 sessions. WIth more sessions I am confident I can benefit from his vast experience.

Coach Grigory is an amazing coach! Already after my first session i feel like i have made improvement from before. His training is really helping me improve and further expand my potential.

Coach Grigory is a great person and coach. Personally, after 1 session and a few days of speaking to him, I have found it so easy to connect with him and ask him anything with him responding via text and call very quickly. He is a very educated person who looks to not only train me, but also to educate me on my body and also on life. We worked on things I've never done before and I can already feel a major difference and he pushed me in a way I did not think possible. A calm yet very motivating person, I'm glad I came across Coach Grigory and excited about working with him for a while

Coach Grigory has a unique way explaining mechanics of VB. He really understands very well the game from inside - great for people who love VB and play VB, but missing basic skills. I am looking forward for my next session.

I am truly impressed with what I have been able to accomplish and in as little time as possible. I gave Coach G specific goals I wanted to work toward and we were able to accomplish all of them and then some. We always used our time to its full potential and I went from struggling with muscular imbalances/loss of strength to being able to participate in a professional intensive dance program in Europe with a leg up thanks to the strong and solid foundation that I left with. My jumps were better than they had been in years. My strength was more functional and solid than ever. We were always training outside instead of in a gym and he was always creative in using the outdoors to our advantage, helping me build the strength/flexibility/endurance I needed in much more practical ways than you would find from using gym equipment. I would recommend Coach G to anyone looking to cross train and improve their performance in any sport because of his diversified experience and knowledgeability in athletics as well as his credentials and formal teaching experience. His integrative approach is the best approach. Needless to say, upon returning from my dance program in Italy I resumed training to further progress in my abilities with a coach whom I trust and helps me grow into a better dancer and athlete with each passing session! I am very thankful for the opportunities that have come my way as a result!

He was very friendly and patient! He was also very informative about playing and coaching strategies. Looking forward to my next session!

A well-educated and great coach. Coach Grigory understands the techniques of volleyball, as well as the science behind the sport. He is very responsive to messages and has a passion for teaching. He was able to provide quick feedback in regards to my hitting approach, setting form, and defensive position. I would highly recommend him to other players.

We had a great experience! Coach has an excellent technique and mindset, and does an outstanding job in asking his students about their hobbies and things they like in order to implement this knowledge into the training. Thank you Coach Grigory!

Coach Greg was great!! Very methodical - clearly takes you through the techniques in a step by step fashion, which is exactly what I need. Looking forward to future sessions....

Coach Grigory was extremely helpful and patient. We mainly worked on my serving and passing; by the end of my lesson I noticed a marked improvement in both. Coach Grigory’s teaching methods are also very effective. While many coaches merely correct you, Coach Grigory takes the time to fully explain and demonstrate the correct technique, in turn ensuring that you will not make that mistake again. I am looking forward to my next lesson with Coach Grigory.

Coach Greg is AMAZING. He made himself available and was very knowledgeable and patient in showing my daughter basic techniques in hitting, serving, settting, etc in preparation of her school tryout. As a beginner he made her feel very comfortable and eager to learn more. Thanks for everything Coach Greg.

Coach Grigory worked with my daughter when she visited NYC. He was very helpful and made himself available at short notice...he worked with her on a variety of skills that she wanted to review.

Coach Grigory helped my daughter with the basics of volleyball.

Coach Agrest has helped me to be come a much more confident shooter, especially at the free-throw line. Before my work with coach, I was shooting at 45%, after only 5 practices my numbers increased to over 75 percent over each following game. He provided me with proper form and was able to pin-point where my mistakes were, so that I can see it as well and fix it. Highly recommend if you really want to learn how to shoot and think on the court.
