Gaby Sosa is a dedicated coach who values skill development, strategy, and helping athletes reach moments of breakthrough. One of my favorite parts of coaching is witnessing that “ah-ha” moment when a player finally masters a skill they’ve been struggling with. She is known for her quiet, thoughtful coaching style but can turn up the intensity when the situation calls for it.

Gaby emphasizes adaptability, tailoring her approach to each athlete while maintaining her philosophy of explaining why a player is performing specific techniques rather than simply telling them what to do. I believe strong technique is essential, and the best way to truly understand the sport is by improving these skills through game play.

She has 11 years of coaching experience, including four years at Power Volleyball Club, and is entering her second year with 1United. Gaby has had the opportunity to learn from former Olympian and current San Diego Mojo head coach Tayyiba Haneef-Park. Coming from a volleyball family—her parents and sister also coach—she brings both passion and knowledge to every team she leads.

My mission is to provide a level of mental and physical training in volleyball that guides athletes toward achieving their most sought-after goals. Along the way, they learn the importance of discipline, respect, strategy, commitment, failure, and the value of a team.
