Grant (CoachUp client)
Coach Kalau was a great coach! I had 2 sessions with him. It was awesome and fun. Learning the aspects of beach Volleyball! Would not mind booking with him again sometime! I learned things also know how will it take to become a good beach volleyball player!
Allen Alexander - Owner of The Sand Club/ EVP West Director (Testimonial)
I had asked Kalau to Join our EVP Tour in 2012 when he lived in Arizona. I noticed this his drive and passion for the game of beach volleyball would make him a tough target to beat. His cleverness to figure other players strengths and weaknesses while competition made it clear that Kalau knew the game both physically and mentally. He also played in my weekly adult recreational leagues where he enjoyed taking the challenge of joining an below average skilled team and push them to playoffs or even finals. I highly advise booking at least one session with Kalau. Be ready to book another session right after.
