I was pleasantly surprised at how at after 1 session with coach Emanuel that my son Kobe's jump shot had vastly improved. I watched in amazement how Kobe went to clanking jumper after jumper off the rim to nailing 5-6 swishes in a row. Six months ago Kobe picked up the ball for the first time and now, I feel, he's better than 1/2 his teammates who have been together for past 2-3 years. Coach Emanuel starts with basic fundamentals, I feel is great, in which is severely lacking in todays youth basketball programs.

Coach Emanuel has been instrumental in helping my 15 year old become a more confident player. The skills he has learned and improved on over the past two months of training have been tremendous. His ball handling and shooting skills have both improved exponentially. In addition, he has become a much more conditioned athlete. Coach Emanuel definitely has the ability, patience, and outstanding demeanor to work with teens. Coach Emanuel is truly invested in making the athlete a better and more well rounded player. I would highly recommend him to anyone wanting to improve their basketball skills.

I had my first session with Emanuel today, and I'll definitely book more. I felt that he listened well and watched to determine what I needed to work on, and he had specific and clear instructions on how to make changes and improve. I'm looking forward to our next session.

[UPDATE 3/7/2014] Like I said, I enjoyed my session with Emanuel, and I booked another one. But after scheduling the second session, he then rescheduled it, and then became completely unresponsive via email. I sent him several separate emails and didn't get responses. So we never got to do a second session. Too bad!

Emanuel is an excellent coach! He is extremely helpful in developing my game. I'm looking forward to continuing working with him on progressing my skills.

Nick (CoachUp client)

I am a 29-year-old novice athlete with no experience playing basketball. I booked a training session with Emanuel to learn the basics of the game. During our first session, he helped me tremendously with my shot technique and by the end of the hour I already felt much more confident in my ability to shoot correctly. Emanuel has responded promptly to messages. I would recommend him to others and I will be booking more sessions with him soon.

Angela Thomas (Testimonial)

JaQuille began the challenge at age 16, 5'11 265lbs. After about 2 weeks he started loosing weight. I started noticing not only was his weight falling off but he started to have more energy. He started to focus more in school and said that he wasn't as hungry or tired the later half of the day. JaQuille ended up loosing 22lbs and 4 sizes. As a mother I loved seeing the positive changes the challenge made in my sons life. For him it was a stepping stone for a healthier life style. It gave him the habbits he needed to kick start the changes for his future.

Jose Martinez (Testimonial)

To whom it may concern, I first met Emanuel at work and overheard him and another co-worker talking about losing weight and the gym. So i decided to chime in and join the conversation. When I told him that I just started to get back into the gym and wanted to lose weight, he started suggesting things i should do. Me being stubborn, I thought I knew what I was doing and didn't to listen to what he was telling me. So a couple more weeks pass by and I noticed I wasn't losing anymore weight, so I started to talk to Emanuel more about it. what I like about Emanuel is that he never gave up even though I was being stubborn and not listening. After those couple weeks Emanuel had kept pushing forward the ViSalus product, and I finally caved in and bought the Vishape. I found that I was working out twice as hard using GNC product. ViSalus has helped me changed my diet and to help me lose the weight I've been wanting to lose for a while. I owe it all to Emanuel for not giving up and holding me accountable for all the things that I should be doing when I wasn't. First week after taking Vishape and weighing in, I remember asking Emanuel "What is this stuff doing to me"? with a big smile on my face, and he simply replied "It's doing it's job". He also gave me some good nutritional tips and also tips on what i should be doing at the gym to help lose the weight i desperately want to lose. Emanuel is a really good motivator even though he isn't by your side, and I will most likely start using him as a personal trainer. A big thanks to the Vi-team and especially Emanuel for the all the tips and for being a great motivator for me to get healthier. Sincerely, Jose Martinez
