27 year old basketball novice trying to up my pickup game. Gio honed in on my dribbling and pushed me throughout a bunch of great drills. Would recommend!

As a parent of a high school senior who will attend Purdue University summer STEM program, I was very impressed and happy with my son’s first session with coach Gorgi. Even when my son did not made some easy baskets, he encouraged him to keep at it result in shots going in.
