Saskia H.

I am a former professional volleyball player with 20 years of experience competing at the highest levels internationally. Since transitioning into coaching, I have worked with athletes ranging from beginners and youth players to advanced high school and elite club athletes. I currently coach in Los Angeles at Sunshine Volleyball Club and Marymount High School and also provide private individual and small-group training. My focus is on strong fundamentals, technical development, confidence, and helping each athlete reach the next level.

I played professional volleyball for 20 years across Germany, Italy, Greece, Romania, the Czech Republic, and the United States. I represented the German National Team from 2008–2022, winning two European Championship silver medals. During my professional career, I won multiple national championships and cups, was named Greek League MVP and Championship MVP, and competed internationally at the highest level. I finished my professional career in the U.S. with the Vegas Thrill in the Pro Volleyball Federation.

Every session is customized to the athlete’s age, position, level, and individual goals. I focus heavily on technique and quality repetitions, including passing, serving, attacking, setting, defense, footwork, and ball control. For more advanced athletes, we also work on position-specific skills, game situations, decision-making, and consistency under pressure. I keep sessions challenging and high-energy while creating an environment where athletes can build confidence, understand their technique, and see measurable improvement.
