Just started playing volleyball 6 months ago, and I was lucky to meet and train with Mark as I was deciding to get into it. He taught me the very basics (with infinite patience and enthusiasm), and through his classes I met awesome people and learned a ton - enough to get me to a BB level in 6 months. Just got done with the Florida BAB Volleyball camp, and had a blast there too. I'm hooked! But I'm also improving crazy fast thanks to the quality training, and it makes it A LOT more fun! If you love volleyball and want to really play your best, invest in classes. It is so worth it!

I came to Hermosa Beach to get coaching from Better at Beach as a way to advance my game. I personally struggled with timing on my approach as well as arm swing mechanics. My consistency was lacking, and my fundamentals needed refinement. Mark personally worked with me to fix my arm swing mechanics as well as my approach. He used dynamic methods to address different aspects of the problem. Mark studies the muscle groups related to arm swing mechanics very closely to better understand how to coach players. He used tennis balls and film review to evaluate my throwing method, and related it to my arm swing, breaking it down step by step. Since I was coached back in February, I have gone from a BB player who could not even consistently hit the ball to an Open player. In just six months after getting coached by Better at Beach in February, I won a AA AVP America tournament, officially graduating me to Open. Later in 2020, I won an 18U AVP America qualifier event for AVP First Junior Nationals. Playing in Junior Nationals was an accomplishment of its own. I am now competing in AVP Next Events organized across the country. I am currently training to eventually qualify for the AVP.
I started training with VolleyCamp Hermosa about 8 months ago. My game, endurance and speed have improved tremendously. Mark, Brandon and all their coaches are top notch. The drills are always different. They have two baskets of balls so everybody gets a ton of hits... When the skill level is varied they split it up. It's awesome to have classes 4 days a week in the winter and 7 days throughout the rest of the year. Highly recommended VolleyCamp if you're either trying to play beach regularly in the South Bay or get better at beach.
Just finished spending a week at Hermosa beach attending the Volleyball Camp with an amazing crew of participants. The camp exceeded my expectations!! Firstly, its run by Mark, who is a phenomenal Coach and has an infectious passion for people and volleyball creating a positive and welcoming place to learn. Secondly, while all the coaches at the camp have a high level of knowledge and skill, Coach Mark and Brandon seem to have a way of commanding the classes where I always felt they were everywhere at once, giving personal feedback throughout. Their caring, yet firm approach, really helped me to push myself, because they believed I could. I can't thank them both, enough, and hope to be back soon!!
Mark and his coaches are the best I've found in the South Bay! They have classes and tips for people of every level, and are masters at breaking down the different parts of the game so you can get the improvement you're looking for. As someone who teaches, I appreciate the thought put into each class's exercises so every student has the opportunity to get feedback while we play, without getting overwhelmed with information. All in all an amazing program with a competitive price-- I'm hooked!
