Season 2 kicks off with a talk with Coach John Kessel. 

Coach John is an US Volleyball Hall of Fame inductee with over 50 years of coaching men's and women's volley ball at the collegiate, international and Olympic level.

Coach Kessel is a strong advocate of specificity and authentic representative practice and empowering athletes through relationships and prioritizing a love for sport. 

John credits much of the success of US Volleyball to an era that embraced the science of learning and more specifically motor learning for sports. 

It was a privilege to have a coach I admire and one that influenced my thinking so much on the podcast to share his wisdom.
