My sessions focus on ball handling, shooting, defensive techniques and passing. Ball handling drills will include the client dribbling around cones, around their back, through their legs, and crossover moves at a comfortable pace until they are equipped to dribbling at a game speed. I will also focus on various shooting and scoring techniques such as the triple threat move, scoring without the ball, and scoring off the dribble. The defensive techniques would focus on closing out properly, a defensive stance, and playing the passing lanes.

The beginning of the session will include a light job around the court, light stretching, light aerobics (jumping jacks, arm circles), and shooting short shots around the basket.
After the warm up session I will evaluate the client's areas of strengths and challenges in shooting, ball handling, passing and defense by having him or her perform basic drills.
At that time I would decide how much emphasis I would need to put in a certain area and request the client to perform several drills until they reach perfection in each category.
At the end of each session the client has to conclude the session by making two consecutive free throws.

Very accommodating and good advice!

Coach is great with both my boys. At 12 and 15 they are at different levels of attention and ambition. He keeps my younger son moving without frustrating my older son. Starting with the basics of basketball and some light conditioning. They both enjoy him and what he is teaching them.

It has been a pleasure to watch Coach Antwan develop my cello-playing nephew's basketball skills. He met my nephew where he was as a beginner player. His instructions were clear and easy to follow. His manner was always friendly and encouraging. I've seen my nephew's form, coordination, ball handling and shooting improve. In addition to basketball specifics, the coach has talked to my nephew about the importance of hydration and nutrition.

Really liked my daughter working with coach Antwan. Very patient and had the personality to keep her engaged.

Coach Antwan was extremely personable and paid close attention to detail when working with our sons. He made instant connections and provided a quality workout and training experience that both of our sons thoroughly enjoyed. He was professional and helpful we will continue to work with him.

He is excellent, motivated, and knows how to motivate kids. He clearly knows how to work with kids and has the patience to do that. He is knowledgeable and made it fun for my son.

Because of the shutdowns my 13 year old son has not been able to play organized sports. He has clearly missed the direction, influence and role modeling that coaches provide. Coach Antwan helped fill that gap during his first session. Antwan not only coached my son to improve fundamentals but also provided him with a daily practice and workout schedule. Again after only the first session my son is back to wanting to workout and practice everyday. I look forward to watching what our future sessions will entail.

Coach Padilla was great! Our young player is a bit shy but really loves basketball. Coach Padilla is helping him break out of his shell and also become a stronger all around player. Thanks, Coach!

Great Coach. My son really enjoyed the session

Averi had a great time. We saw improvements in her first game after one session with Coach Antwan.

Miles was too shy to say it and begged me to let Coach Antwan know that Miles thought he was an awesome coach and that he really liked him. Kid was visibly disappointed when I told him we were out of sessions. My kid is shy but after the second session he was matching Coach Antwan’s energy. He learned a lot and I’m glad we were able to fit some sessions in before his basketball season started.

Coach Antwan was great with my 5-year old son. He was very patient and explained basics to my son in an easy to understand and fun way.

Antwan is a fantastic coach and great with kids. My 7th grader is getting so much out of his sessions. Highly recommend!

Great guy, love the way he talks to my daughter, has serious BB skills, on time. Happy customer.

Great first session has him all pumped up for more.

Coach Antwan is awesome! He’s really attentive to the strength and weakness of the player. We are seeing a big improvement in our son performance after a couple of sessions with him. He’s punctual and very polite. The training sessions are very efficient and productive. If you are looking to work hard and make a lot of improvement, then Coach Antwan is the perfect choice. I would definitely recommend Coach Antwan.
