A client of mine can expect 60-75 minutes of instruction, practice and intense training depending on the program design. The drills that I focus on encompass getting players to use their mind and body in a way that makes playing the game easy for them. I incorporate both offensive and defensive drills that improve a players weak points and enhance their strengths.

Client Reviews
Alexis (CoachUp client)
Had a good workout with Coach Malachi. Definitely going to train with him again. Awesome coach explain the drills very well.
Antwanette Juaquez Narbonne H.S Girls Fr/Soph/JV Basketball Oct. 5th, 2015 (Testimonial)
I trained with Coach Edmond and I think he's a great coach/trainer. I'm still learning the game, but he makes it seem easy. I've learned how to not be scared to shoot, I use to not shoot the ball, now he is helping me shoot much more than I usually do. I use to just shoot with my left hand and now I shoot with both. Also, it's not just basketball practice, I actually have to study & complete my homework assignments and do well in school. I feel like I have [ become a better player]. I feel even more confident knowing that my teammates have noticed my improvements as well.
Dana Ferrick / Real Estate Appraiser (Testimonial)
Malachi was great to work with, he was professional yet still personable, made me feel comfortable. He kept it interesting for me, he mixed it up so I wasn't board with the same work out all the time and that is what kept me coming back.
Jack Kenefick / Corporate Wellness Specialist (Testimonial)
I have had the pleasure of knowing Malachi for over a year now. I have watched him work with his clients and am always inspired by his innate ability to motivate and infect his clients with positive energy. He creates a sense of urgency about achieving tangible results for his clients
Jim Brittel / Quality Assurance at UC Irvine (Testimonial)
I've been working with Malachi for almost one year now and have achieved a fitness level I did not think was possible. Malachi is the kind of guy that will do whatever it takes to help his clients get the results they want. His professional and upbeat style makes him a great guy to work with. July 14, 2008, Jim was Malachi's client
