The biggest hurdle I’ve seen over this past year working with High School and Collegiate athletes from taking their game to the next level is the question:
“ Where do I even start? ”
If you’re on this page, there’s a chance you have the same question.Not having a clear understanding on the principles and concepts that can make you a more consistent receiver and defender won’t just stall your progress, it’ll steal the most precious resource - your time.
I get it because I was there too!

Can you relate to this…
You spend everyday in the summer playing beach volleyball, only to come back to the house and hit the ball against the wall, against the roof, you teach your sibling how to pepper, just so you can get extra touches. Fast forward to your next club tryout and you didn’t make any of the teams who had hoped to make.
Which in return makes you feel more anxious and confused - thinking you did everything right, working and training every day
All of this increases your imposter syndrome and fear and makes you feel even though you made a club team, you’re not going to improve as much as you were hoping to because you made the 2nd team and/or a less prestigious club.
Imagine this…
Imagine waking up with a clear strategy of what you’re going to focus on in practice, rather than hoping your outcomes will be good or the coaches will give you the perfect tip
Imagine getting an email back from your dream school, that you previously thought was impossible
Imagine creating a version of yourself that knows exactly what you’re going to work on each day and turns failure into fuel for the upcoming week
Imagine instead of shanking serves and feeling shame, you’re able to pivot to the next ball with the same confidence you had after your last perfect pass
Imagine a future where you know what the servers are going to do before they do because you learned how to scout and you have all the servers tells and tendencies in the palm of your hand.

What Libero Academy members are saying
Why Libero Academy?
The Academy is designed for the next generation of liberos who eat/sleep/dream volleyball. I made the Libero Academy for liberos with huge dreams and those who have the desire to put as much time, energy and focus back into their development and growth.
& guess what? When you join you’ll get access to a monthly Libero Master Class, where you’ll meet up and work with me and like minded athletes and coaches. So you don’t have to grow alone - we’re all in this together. Whether it’s questions about technical, tactical or the inevitable debilitating emotions you’ll experience - I got your back.
More Clarity, More Confidence, More joy playing the sport you love.

Hey dude - Just wanted to say how awesome I think it is what you're doing with Libero Academy.
15 years ago when I was a young libero playing in the Dutch <21 squad and hunting for a pro-contract, I spent hours going through the FIVB video database (remember how they used to cut and post video from the big FIVB tournaments?) but it would have been so valuable to have someone to help me 1-on-1 with both the technical and the mental side of being a libero (no libero subs at that time).
So if this was me 15 years ago, I would've been the biggest Academy fan. Now I just like to mentally follow along and just wanted to say how much I appreciate you using your experience and platform this way. Keep it up!
The Libero Academy is different than any other volleyball community out there because
It’s a membership so it is always evolving just like the sport of volleyball is. It is always updated with drills, clinics and more videos for you to learn as the sport changes
There are expert guest liberos from the men’s and women’s side that will occasionally hop on our live Master Classes
This membership is affordable for those at every stage of their journey. One month of membership is half the cost of a private lesson
We are consistently bringing in liberos from different schools of volleyball, so you can invest in a certain style of playing rather than hoping for good outcomes
Ready to Spend less time anxious
and nervous on the court and begin
playing the game you love with
consistent excitement, confidence
and joy? I’m Here to Help!
My first team at nationals got last place in the lowest division, after that season I played volleyball everyday from morning to dusk, only to not make any of the clubs teams I wanted. My senior year my team won nationals in the open division but it still took me four years at Long Beach State to become a full time starter at the libero position.
As I began sharing my career as a professional and member of Team USA, I was shocked to see how many consistent DMs I would receive from athletes feeling anxious, insecure and read to quit the sport they love.
I created two video courses to share concepts that have helped me become a better defender and receiver with the goal of helping the next generation learn and train the game like a pro. The feedback was loud and everyone wanted more drills, more ideas on how to train and more video to study, which propelled me to build the Libero Academy.

The Libero Academy isn’t just another
“volleyball online community”... It’s a 12-month
transformation process that will take you from…
unsure, anxious and imposter syndrome filled athlete
Confident, assertive and aggressive libero, who is consistently learning and improving through calculated and intentional repetitions.
Feeling underwhelmed by your progress? Here is my 4-step process to break down the concepts and principles I use as a professional athlete, so you can implement them on the court and play with more confidence.
Step 1: Learn
Step 2: Implement
Step 3: Feedback
Step 4: Repeat
Step by step with a professional libero along side
your journey to help you weed out any confusion and
dial in more intention and purpose into each day.
I mean this was 1000 times better than what I was expecting. Like I’ve said in the past I really love how when you pause a video, you can use the arrow keys to go frame by frame which to me is such a huge plus because you can look at each pass super in-depth, but what really surprised me was how much content is coming out and how frequently it’s coming out. There is nothing like this out there that really focuses on libero’s so in-depth and I truly love it!

Hey Dustin, I just finished Taichi’s 7 Day Course and it opened my mind to so many other skillsets I can work on to incorporate into my play. It’s really an awesome addition to the courses already there! I’m loving all the content that’s being pumped so far, and all the events you’ve held that you allowed me to be a part of.Thanks to the 1v1’s, Libero Academy, and the Tribe events you allowed me to be a part of, I am beginning to see my true potential come into fruition! My job as a college libero isn’t over yet, but best believe I’m going out of my last year with a bang!
Not every day used to be the “best day ever”
for me, until I began taking more responsibility in my journey and living more intentionally. Let me empower you to do the
same, now.
