Get to know Ashley
Volleyball & Strength/Speed Coach looking to help clients meet their goals!
Hi everyone! My name is Ashley Hoxit! I am a volleyball & strength/speed coach with 5 years of coaching experience and over 10 years of playing experience, 4 of those as a 4 year NCAA starter at the collegiate level! As a coach, I look to help athletes and clients meet any sport or fitness goal no matter how big or small!
How I can help you improve
I can help you improve your game by providing personalized volleyball training or personalized speed and strength training! For volleyball, I competed as an outside hitter and defensive specialist in college but I have experience playing every position in the game. With that being said, I can provide insightful feedback and drills to help athletes of all ages and positions. For speed and strength training, I have worked with clients ages 13 all the way to 80! As a personal trainer, we can work towards any fitness goal you may have! For athletes specifically, I specialize in annual training plans that are created based off the athlete’s prime competitive season so that they can achieve optimal growth. Each training session will be personalized based off the athletes/clients needs and skill/developmental levels, to ensure they get the best experience possible.
A typical training session
A typical training session with me lasts anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour depending on what services you’re looking for. For volleyball, it is an hour long training session targeted around two specific skills that your athlete is looking to improve. I then tailor the training session based on your athletes skills and developmental level. For strength and speed training, sessions are 30 minutes to an hour depending on what type of training we’re doing that day! Speed sessions only, last for 30 minutes. Strength sessions only, last for 30 - 45 minutes and strength and speed sessions combined last for an hour. I can also program an annual training plan around an athletes season!

Best coach I ever had
The best coach I ever had was my high school track and field coach! He was an all around guy. He cared deeply for each and every one of his athletes and truly developed them on and off the track. I take a lot of what he taught me and apply it to my coaching style now. I only had him as a coach for a couple of months but he has left a lifetime impression on me! Still to this day, he will give me a hug and tell me how he is of me! I hope that one day I can be that to all the athletes I come in contact with!
What athletes & parents should know
Volleyball has been my first love since I was 9 years old. That then grew into anything that kept me active. In high school, I soon realized my time as an athlete would come to an end. Ultimately, I decided that coaching was my passion whether it was on the court or training in the weight room. I hold a coaching philosophy grounded in encouragement, accountability, and the development of both athletic and life skills. I believe in fostering an environment where every athlete knows their worth beyond the sport or weight room and believes they can achieve anything with hard work and self discipline.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.
Questions? Our team is here to help. View our policies.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former college and pro athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process + background check, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
