Wallyball in Maryland come join us and check out our 4 court facility. It has locker rooms with showers and a small bar with drinks and appetizers. Open play on Mon, Advanced play on Tues, League games on Fri. If you have not played Wallyball below is a description but you need to come try to give it a bounce. Wallyball is an exciting, fast-paced version of volleyball played inside a racquetball court, utilizing the walls to add a whole new dimension. It's a high-energy game that creates quick reactions and creative thinking, making it perfect for volleyball players looking for a new challenge or a thrilling way to cross-train. Why You'll Love Wallyball "Walls are In" Action: The key difference from traditional volleyball is that you can strategically hit the ball off a single side wall on your side of the net, creating unexpected angles and keeping opponents guessing. This adds a unique, dynamic element to rallies. Faster, Intense Pace: Played within a smaller, enclosed court, the action is non-stop. The ball is always in flight, leading to longer rallies, more touches, and heightened intensity. Enhanced Strategy: Good wallyball players use the walls as a key strategy to confuse and distract opponents. It encourages creative shot-making and demands excellent court awareness and communication skills—all valuable for your regular volleyball game. Improve Core Skills: The enclosed space forces you to be fast on your feet and react quickly, which sharpens fundamental skills like passing, digging, and hitting in a controlled environment. Great Cross-Training: It's an excellent workout that builds physical conditioning and mental fortitude, helping you stay sharp and competitive even in the off-season. If you thrive on fast-paced competition and are looking for a fun, yet challenging, twist on the sport you love, wallyball offers a unique opportunity to bring your skills to the walls.

Ann is a master teacher who has taught embodied movement as connection to spirit for over 18 years. She is fully trained in 5Rhythms (both waves and heartbeat levels), attended the teacher training for Soul Motion and has a Masters in Education. A born teacher. Her classes offer a dynamic movement practice rooted in the principle that if you put the psyche in motion it will heal itself.

Ann has held this group, a dynamic community has been created to dance, to sweat, to change, to support, and to provide a safe space for each of us to shatter the ego’s hold and awaken the juicy, unpredictable, fascinating, edge-walking, rock star part of ourselves that yearns to be free. Creativity. Connection. Community. There are no steps to learn. 5Rhythms can be practiced by anyone regardless of age, fitness, ability, or experience.
