Volleyball training sessions are designed according to the individual goals of the client as well as helpful insite to other skills and strengths that Jules identifies are important to the client's success.

Sessions always begin with a dynamic sports specific warmup to prevent injury and solidify technical disciplines. Following the warm up, Jules incorporates creative drills to breakdown skill progressions allowing the client different ways of learning. Typically she will end the session by hopping into the drill simulating a more game-like situation to apply the skill learned the day.

Sports performance clients benefit similarly from a sports specific warmup followed by an organized personalized workout designed to maximize results as quickly as possible.
