I'm addicted to beach volleyball!
3 years ago
I live near the beach (South Bay, Los Angeles) and for years I’d watch people play volleyball and lament that I knew no one with whom I could play. Also, I hadn’t really played since high school (and that was indoor), so I wasn’t about to just ask to join in and then flail. Going to the beach meant swimming or just sitting on the sand watching everyone else play.
Well, last June, I finally did it—I joined a volleyball class. I can’t tell you how happy I am that I did so. I’ve been playing volleyball every week since then; I’ve met dozens of awesome people and my skills have improved greatly. Not to be overly dramatic, but it’s changed so much in my life.
If you’re like I was, don’t wait! If you live in the South Bay, want to meet wonderful people and play volleyball as often as possible, sign up for a class! And if you have at least intermediate volleyball skills, my favorite instructor is starting a new session this Saturday. Check it out: http://www.volleyballrandall.com
