I specialize in the mechanics of shooting. I will assess your shot and break down how to shoot more consistently and accurately. We will work on balance, control, & speed in order to get your shot off quicker. We start with form shooting (basic fundamentals) and gradually move to game like situations (catch & shoot/off the dribble) while working on a quick release.

Client Reviews
Pam (CoachUp client)
Coach Leilani was great! Helped my son get over his fear of shooting in one session! Will definitely be in touch as other needs arise!
Anna (CoachUp client)
Coach Leilani is great! She started with evaluating skills and worked on form. After the initial session she had a lesson plan for next session.
Andres (CoachUp client)
Coach Leilani was amazing with my daughter (beginner, 15 years old). She did a quick assessment and started working straight through the fundamentals. I was so glad to see my daughter building confidence so quickly. I would highly recommend Coach Leilani!
Ryan (CoachUp client)
Coach Leilani was great! Very patient with my daughter, who is a beginner in basketball. We already see some improvements from just one lesson. I would recommend Coach Leilani to anyone.

Thanks Coach Leilani for the great session. My son was so happy as he learnt the lay up and your way of teaching to get in line with kids requirements is awesome. Thanks a lot

Great coach. Connected well with my son and he made significant progress in just one lesson. Solid fundamentals and got him working. His shot mechanics improved a lot.
Eileen (CoachUp client)
Coach Leilani was amazing.
My son’s bragged about her to their friends of the additional skills that they had learned in just one session.
I had only booked one session with a coach for my son’s to improve their skills.
Coach Leilani evaluated their skills and showed how to improve on all.
We were amazed and booked mass future sessions with her.
Ann (CoachUp client)
Coach Leilani is a great coach. She was able to give me valuable tips on improving my shots. She was patient with me and helped me understand the techniques. I would recommend her to my friends if they need one.
Sudha (CoachUp client)
We tried coach Leilani and my daughter loved her session. She was very friendly, approachable and was able to identify the strength and weakness of my kid and came up with a plan to improve her skills. Highly recommend her.
Spencer (CoachUp client)
Leilani is great! We’re seeing immediate improvement after the first session.
Jared Johnson/ SDSU (Testimonial)
By far the best shooting coach I’ve had. Focuses on the details that are easy to forget and is always patient with you. Overall has made me a way better shooter.
Isaiah Frazier/ DeAnza College Guard (Testimonial)
Coach Lei sets herself apart from all other trainers through the layers of knowledge she knows when it comes to the art of shooting; just by looking at your form she can tell everything that needs to be worked on and side by side she can answer every question you may hold making the process less stressful . In our sessions we always start with thoughtful form shooting where we focus on all aspects of the shot, then we continue to warmup now with the progression of a detail oriented catch and shoot jumper, after that we move on to a one dribble pull up , then to shooting off a single move , then on to a double move. Through all of the progressions more variables come into the framework of the shot coach Lei does a great job helping clear those up for her clients making it easy for us to progress. After each session I feel that I have won the day and I’m slowly but at a faster pace making progress; Rome wasn’t built in one day but surely with coach Lei you may be able to work faster to that greatness you seek. One last point I really want to emphasize is that she has all the knowledge you need. As a player I have a hard time retaining new taught reads or situational stuff if I don’t know the real reason why, Coach Lei gives you this knowledge so everything sticks from her sessions. Keep the work you put in; and with her you’ll do just that.
