More About Coach Corey
I have 10 years of experience in both coaching and in private basketball training. I have been training boys and girls from ages 4 to 18 as well as adults, ranging from people who are just starting out to more experienced basketball players. I worked at basketball camps for kids for many years in Los Angeles, and I volunteered as an assistant coach for both JV and varsity teams at Windward School. I also served as the head coach for the club basketball team at Wesleyan University for three years.
I was a four-year high school varsity basketball player at Windward School in Los Angeles. During my senior season, I earned a spot on the First Team Gold Coast League alongside several high-level D-1 recruits and future NBA prospects. That same year, I was also awarded the Matthew Shreck Leadership Award for outstanding athletic leadership at my school. Then, I went to college at Wesleyan University, where I played and coached for three years on the club team.
My sessions begin with a conversation with the athlete about their goals and what aspects of their game they are looking to work on. From there, I will craft a workout plan in real time that addresses the athlete's wants as well as my own observations about areas where they can improve. I heavily emphasize fundamentals during the first half of the session, focusing on footwork, offhand layups, form shooting, defensive mechanics, and ball-handling. Then, we will move on to drills that simulate in-game scenarios during the second half of the session, where athletes continue to build on their fundamentals while also improving detailed offensive and defensive strategy. Most importantly, we'll always make sure to have fun!

Great and fun Coach. The kids loved him
Kevin (CoachUp client)
Corey is a very focused teacher, yet connects with youths as well. Therefore learning and productivity are balanced with enjoyment. Corey is also flexible and easy to deal with. My son is 13 yo and has worked with a LOT of coaches.
Aaron (CoachUp client)
Corey is a solid coach. Really attentive, and after just two lessons I feel like I've gotten some great insights that will help me improve my game and shot long term.
Rika (CoachUp client)
Coach Corey is amazing. My kids instantly loved learning & playing with him.
Bernice (CoachUp client)
Corey is an amazing coach! Our son loved Corey's approachable manner, high energy and well chosen drills. Corey's basketball sessions were fun, and our son loves to recap each session with the list of achievements and mechanics they worked on together. Flexible time slots, great rapport building and a total focus on improving our son's foundational mechanics have been beyond expectations. Thanks Corey!

My kids (11 yr old girl + 8 yr old girl) love working with Corey. He is always on time and reliable. Makes it fun for the kids while teaching them at the same time. Highly recommended. A++++
Looking forward to next time!
Hector M (Testimonial)
Coach Corey has instructed my daughter for a year now. His patience and understanding of my daughter's specific needs have not only improved her game but allowed her to play up an age level on her Travel team and Middle school team. He helped her to develop the fundamental skills as well as team offensive and defensive mindset. He did all this while making the session fun as well as challenging. Highly recommend his services! 5 stars all around!
Laura R (Testimonial)
Corey is an incredibly skilled, kind and caring basketball trainer. He is also an all around great person and role model. He has worked with my daughter for over a year and not only has she improved her skills, but her confidence too. She really looks forward to their workouts and is always exhausted, in a good way, after them. I asked her for three words to describe Corey and she said patient, understanding and encouraging. We can't say enough good things about him as a person as well as a trainer. Highly recommend!
