The Next-Gen Hitter: Where Players Break Limits and Build Dominance
Every player deserves more than random drills and empty tips. That’s why I created a proven framework for hitters — combining world-class training, mindset coaching, and a community that lifts you up. Together, we’ll turn your potential into real power on the court..
My story
There was a time when I looked up at the net, wondering if I’d ever rise above it.
I trained for hours, copied drills from random videos, and pushed myself until my body burned. But when it mattered most — in matches — my hits were inconsistent, my jump wasn’t explosive, and my confidence crumbled under pressure.
I thought the answer was just work harder. But as I climbed into professional leagues across Europe and South America, I learned the truth: the difference between good and great hitters isn’t about grinding more hours. It’s about having the right plan — a clear roadmap that shows you exactly what to do, step by step.
That realization changed everything for me. And when I started coaching, I saw the same frustration in young players: they were giving everything, but without guidance, they stayed stuck. That’s why I built Next-Gen Hitter. Not a collection of random drills, but a proven framework backed by my years as a pro — one that combines technical training, physical preparation, and mental toughness.
I’ve lived through the doubts, the setbacks, and the grind. And I know how it feels to finally break through — to hit harder, play smarter, and step on court with confidence. My mission now is simple: help you get there faster.

- My YouTube videos on volleyball advice and tips have over 15 million views.
- I have trained with top coaches, completing thousands of jumps and exercises to refine skills.
