Mark Salas - "My daughter Ashley, is playing on one of the top 5 pairs at UMHB. Her school won the 2024 D3 National Championship. Her skills and confidence have become very strong as a player and a teammate. I believe a lot of that comes from the advice, coaching and training she received from your program a few years ago. Just thought you’d like to know about the success on the beach court of one of your players you helped to mold."
Christian Mitchell - "Adam Johnson is a great coach. He has experience playing at the highest level. He keeps the workout intense and fun at the same time. He gives technical feedback, and is great at correcting mistakes. If you want to better your game, there is no one with better expertise." DI Southern Mississippi
Jamie Myrick - “I had the honor to play under Adam for eight years, and I believe I wouldn’t be playing collegiate ball now if it wasn’t for him! His dedication, attentiveness, and passion for the sport is like no other. He’s an amazing coach and I couldn’t be more thankful to have learned from him. He’s the best!!!”
DII Arkansas Tech University
William Mitchell - "As a coach and former athlete myself, I know that having a coach that has played at the highest levels in their sport can provide details and insight that others can't. My daughter has worked with Adam since she first started playing at age 14, and Adam's knowledge of the game helped her eventually play Beach Volleyball at the Division 1 level. When you've won the Manhattan Beach Open two times and would have represented the USA in the Olympics had it not been for a partner injury, then you are able to provide athletes with bonus competitive and sport insight even beyond the technical expertise having outperformed the best in the world during his time playing." Southern Mississippi
Heather Stansel - "Adam Johnson is a true Ambassador for the sport of volleyball. He not only passes on his immense knowledge and skill for both indoor and beach to his Junior athletes, he also teaches his athletes respect and passion for the game. My daughters trained and played both indoor and beach for Adam and achieved their goal of playing Division I Beach volleyball at UAB. Adam truly wishes to see all of his junior athletes thrive both on and off the court. There are many Coaches and Clubs out there that can teach the sport of volleyball but none compare to AJVA."
Lori Moritz - "Adam is an amazing coach! He loves what he does, loves the sport and truly cares about each girl. Over the 5 years my daughter played for Adam, we spent countless hours in practices, tournaments and traveling all over the country. I can honestly say we only experienced good things from his club. I highly recommend Adam Johnson!" Amanda played DI at Samford University
Ashlee Stansel - "I played for AJVA for 4+ years and it was one of the best experiences I have had. One of the reasons I kept coming back season after season was the personal aspect of the club. It felt like a family which is almost impossible to find in the countless other clubs throughout the Austin area. The coaching style is also centered around the roots of volleyball which is why I felt I learned and improved the most in my time with Adam. I had the pleasure of not only playing but coaching with AJVA in the summers and could not have asked for a better skill before going to play D1 college Beach Volleyball at UAB. Overall I would recommend this club to all my friends not only for the amazing experiences I had but also due to the second family I found there."
Izzy Kittrell - "I have worked with Coach Adam for two years and his knowledge has helped me improve drastically! Beach has helped my conditioning and creativity. Coach Adam knows the game inside and out!"
Dustin Blocker - “After watching Adam coach several of our junior’s & adult clinics, I am always impressed with his ability to effectively share his immense knowledge of the game. However, I would say the most infectious part of his coaching method is his ability to share his love of the game with his students."
Matt Wamble - “Adam is a great teacher and advocate for beach volleyball and does an amazing job connecting with athletes of all ages. My daughter has truly enjoyed working with him!”
Katie Blazek - "AJ is a great coach. He really pushes you to get a touch on every ball no matter how impossible. During game time, he becomes the subconscious voice in your head when you know you’re doing something you shouldn’t be doing. He will 100% improve your game."
Rachel Trueblood - "AJVA has been wonderful for my 15 year old! She really enjoys the summer sand program and it has made her indoor game even better as well. Adam is great with the kids."
Sarah Gates - "We have nothing but positive things to say about Coach Adam Johnson and his beach volleyball program. He provides intense training with a wealth of knowledge and experience while also making it fun and flexible for the athletes. It has made my daughter a better all-around athlete."
Kelli Hammersmith - "Coach johnson is a consummate professional. His knowledge of the game, and his ability to break skills down help you become a better player. His style of coaching enhances your court vision and Volleyball tuition. You get better because he pushes you also helping you develop your inner grit and belief in yourself."
Martha Najib - “I have had the privilege of training with Adam Johnson. He is a legend in beach volleyball and has expertise in highly competitive play. He’s the perfect coach as you are learning the sport from an accomplished pro athlete. Adam’s trainings are combination of fun, cardio, fundamentals, and play. My partner and I did private sessions before a big tournament. Adam’s suggestions and adjustments helped us play better and win games. If you are a beginner, want to compete in tournaments, or take your skills to a higher level, I highly recommend private lessons with Adam. He’s truly the best!".
