More About Coach Aisha

I bring over a year of experience coaching girls ages 8 and up, with a focus on player development, fundamentals, and basketball IQ. I’ve coached at the amateur level and served on the staff of an AAU team, working closely with young athletes to help them grow both on and off the court.

While I don’t hold formal coaching certifications, I offer something just as valuable—real experience at the highest level of the game. As a WNBA champion and international pro, I’ve lived this game at its peak, and I’m always playing, learning, and sharing with anyone willing to listen.

Whether it’s in a gym, at a park, or during a session, I’m passionate about teaching through storytelling, lived experience, and breaking down how to truly get better—physically, mentally, and emotionally—through the lens of someone who’s been there.

My sessions focus on ball handling and shooting, with an emphasis on the “why” behind every drill, so players leave not just more skilled—but more confident and informed.

Each session is designed to sharpen two essential skills: ball handling and shooting—my core strengths as a player.

We’ll break down technique, build muscle memory, and most importantly, dive into the why behind every move. This isn’t about rushing through drills—it’s about developing a deeper understanding of how each skill translates directly to game situations.

My goal is to help you not only improve your handle and shot, but also make smarter decisions on the court with confidence and control.

Client Reviews

Really skilled Coaching from an elite player. Would recommend to anyone all skill levels. Knows a lot about the game and is willing to share her secrets 🤫 100% Worth it, would go again if in Las Vegas area.

Aisha was great with my 10yr son! After a quick intro, they got right to work on targeted drills to help develop specific skills that she asked about ahead of time. I would definitely recommend and will try to coordinate future sessions if her schedule allows. My son really enjoyed the session. Thanks!

Aisha Sheppard is very helpful coach my very first session was a big eye opener fixing my form and already on a great track!

Had a great session with Coach Aisha! Extremely knowledgeable with excellent technical feedback on shot and helping to get shots off more quickly. Very motivational with great positive energy; a wonderful role model!

Aisha knows the game of basketball but what makes her a good trainer is she understands the details. 15 minutes into my daughter’s first session Aisha corrected one thing that helped her tremendously. Highly recommend her.

Thank you to Aisha Sheppard for helping Katty with her shooting! Kind of bananas that my kid gets to work with one of the best shooters in the NCAA. Thank you for your generosity and giving back so much” —Justin Ross
