More About Coach Denis
I have multiple amounts of years coaching children ranging from elementary to high school. I've been able to coach at various schools throughout NYC and even was a trainer at one of the premier youth sports programs in NYC.
I was fortunate enough to play in high school in NYC under one of the toughest high school athletic leagues known as the PSAL. Afterward, i went to junior college for two years playing alongside various players who are either now in the NBA or playing professionally overseas. From then I continued to play collegiately at SUNY Purchase, where I honed my skills and was later invited to play for my national team and compete against other countries in hopes of playing in the Olympics. I briefly played professionally but was sidelined due to a foot injury. Ever since then, I've been using my knowledge to give back to those in need.
The client can expect to get the best workout guaranteed. I like to focus on the player's skill set ,and focus on weaknesses they can turn into strengths. I do dynamic warmups and stretches to start off. After, I would go through a set of dribbling, agility, lay up and shooting drills to see where the player needs help and continue to work on drills that they need the most help. Drills would be done for most of the workout, but drills will be fun and engaging for the player. Aside from basketball, I also focus on strength training and conditioning which is another aspect that enhances every athletes game.
