Coach G.

I am a very experienced and interactive trainer & coach. I began training basketball after I finished college in 2009. I started by coaching middle school aged kids in AAU tournaments & travel leagues. Next, I started a non- profit organization called GoodLife Inc. The non profits purpose was to provide training to kids of all ages who could not afford the same high quality training as their counterparts. The non-profit thrived and I began bein offered opportunities to run basketball camps and train individuals from different areas. I directed the little sixers (Philadelphia 76ers) camp, was hired to run an NBA training site during NBA allstar weekend, directed multiple basketball clinics in 3 different Burroughs in NYC, directed an 8 week camp located in the East Hamptons and was hired to train many individuals in the NYC area. Because of the success I had, I decided to move from Burlington, VT to New York City where I was hired as a full time basketball trainer through a company Called Mo'Motion. I worked with this company for a year before I became a P.E. teacher, basketball coach & athletic director at a charter middle school. I'm currently certified as a basketball trainer through USA basketball and typically work with kids from as young as 5 years of age to seniors in high school. I am also very comfortable training athletes older than 18yrs of age.

While I was in high school I was honored as the player of the year in Vermont. I went on to play division 1 college basketball at Southern University where I was a 3 year starter and 2 year captain. I had the opportunity to play in the NCAA tournament as well.

What makes my sessions special and different than others is that I enjoy training and competing side my side with my clients. I think this is such a vital way to train because it teaches not only organic healthy competition but allows me to set the tone for our workout. It makes my sessions fun and gives clients someone to rival while learning the correct techniques. I also enjoy recording sessions and making fun videos to celebrate progress. I can guarantee improvements without it feeling like a Dry repetitive experience.
