Canadian Elite Academy

Private lessons offer a personalized volleyball experience!

The main athlete selects the focus, invites up to five other academy athletes, and works with the head coach of the Academy. The private are best suited to athletes of all ages and will be suited for their skill level and needs.

This unique format allows athletes to target specific skills, build confidence, and take their game to the next level.

By choosing the focus and the group of attending athletes, the main athlete can shape the lesson to fit their goals — from mastering basic fundamentals to exploring advanced concepts. For example, a hitting session can include setters, liberos, and other hitters to create realistic, game-like drills. A serving lesson becomes more effective when multiple athletes are involved, allowing for rhythm, feedback, and even targets such as a libero to improve precision.

Private lessons are an excellent way to focus on what matters most in each athlete’s volleyball journey — skill development, teamwork, and game application — all in a supportive, customized environment.
