More About Coach John

I played 4 years varsity basketball in high school. I currently coach at the local recreation center in my neighborhood. I work with kids in preparation for high school basketball and beyond. I teach all ages.

I was all state for 2 years in high school. All conference for 3 years. Team captain 3 years. Team MVP once. I had several scholarship offers from division 1 colleges. Though a knee injury cut short my chance to compete at the division 1 level,I still compete in open adult leagues and tournaments.

I begin each session with cardio and light stretching. Once athlete is properly warmed up,I start the session plan for that particular day. I pay close attention to the technique and mental as well physical condition of athlete. After completion of goals for session,I follow with more stretching and a question and answer with athlete.

Coach John is friendly and a great coach!
We worked on correcting my forehand stroke and also on sharpening other parts of the game. Definitely challenges you to be better.
He also pinpointed my errors and provided constructive criticism during each drill of the session, which was very helpful in improving!
Would highly recommend!

John wastes no time and gets right to the point. The results speak for themselves. I'd recommend him.

john is good and fun

John has been very helpful in helping our son Walt learn basketball fundamentals. Walt is excited about working with John.

Coach John was great! We are beginners and he gave us helpful basics but let us start playing right away. We can't wait for our next lesson!

John picked up on my weaknesses quickly and worked with me on all parts of my game. He challenged me and gave both positive feedback and constructive criticism.

I had a great learning experience with coach John. He picked up on the mistakes that I was making within the first 30 minutes and helped me correct them. He makes the sessions challenging with the drills but also fun with his humor. I would highly recommend him!

John is a great coach. He understands very quickly were your weaknesses come from. He can be tough but always balancing it with good humour. He really knows how to make you improve while having a good time.

Thanks John. I wish you lived in London

Coach John is a very funny, outgoing coach. He focused on fundamentals of tennis, and I can see my progress after a few sessions.

John gave me my very first tennis lesson. He is personable and attentive and made the lesson simple and straightforward. He also challenged me appropriately but listened if I needed to take a break! I will work with him again for sure!

John is a great coach. Super relaxed, fun, yet pushes you hard. He has a very watchful eye and great comments that after one sesison have already started to improve my game

Coach John made tennis fun for my friend and I who are beginners. He taught us fundamental techniques, and we are learning quickly. I would recommend Coach John to anyone interested in playing tennis. My friend and I are excited about continuing our tennis lessons.

John is an amazing coach and I saw improvement after just one lesson. Couldn't ask for a better coach- he is to the point, effective, and also hilarious! Love him!

Very flexible and understanding. Gets to the point and does not waste time. Allows student be proactive as to what they want to achieve. Very fun to hang around and hilarious at times!

Amazing time, I really learned a lot.

Good coach, is helpful with the overall game.

Really an incredible coach. He makes sure that I pay attention to every detail of the game but also allows me to be relaxed

John teaches all ages with different abilities in basketball. He patiently instructs correct form and technique. He is highly gifted in translating basketball knowledge to on-court performance. I have seen him play in basketball tournaments. His skill set and aptitude naturally makes him the team leader, resulting in multiple open division championships.
My son was not as coordinated as other children on the team. He likes basketball and wanted to play but he had very little confidence in his abilities. Coach John taught him the basics and more importantly, the life skills that he will carry on in all areas of life. Coach has a set of lifelong principles that he requires the team to memorize and then is put into practical application. I highly recommend Coach John!
