    ALVARADO, TX, May 16, 2024 /24-7PressRelease/ -- When you're an all-star high school volleyball player, and a top-notch collegiate volleyball player, the logical career choice is one that includes sharing your skills and talents by teaching others.

With more than 15 years of volleyball experience under her belt, Shurm is beloved by her students, who call her "Coach JK." Under her expert tutelage, athletes of all ages and skill levels—from beginner to advanced—work on enriching their volleyball skills, along with boosting their physical strength, speed, agility and stamina.

To accomplish this, Shurm employs a combination of drills, exercises and games to help players develop technical skills, such as passing, setting, hitting and serving. Shurm designed her program to challenge athletes physically and mentally, with the goal of helping athletes achieve new levels of performance. Her extensive experience as a player gives Shurm a deep understanding of the game and what it takes to succeed as an athlete. Using this knowledge and experience, she helps her students reach their full potential and excel in the sport that she loves.

That's just one part of what makes ARVC both popular and successful among players, coaches and parents. Shurm gets involved on a personal level, offering individualized guidance both on and off the court for program participants and imparting valuable life skills to help them succeed in all aspects of their lives.
