I focus upon detailed breakdowns of footwork concepts, body control, ball manipulation techniques and space recognition of athletes on the court.
The footwork breakdown helps the athlete to understand that the feet not ball come first in basketball. So the athletes learn how to step, where to step, and most importantly when to step.
Body control is learning movement postures so the athletes can manage themselves in positions that the complex game of basketball demands on our bodies to be dynamic and fluid.
Ball manipulation techniques are imperative in today’s game so athletes comprehend the art of pickups, lifts, and turning the ball into space.
Finally space recognition the biggest skillset to be learned is critical for game IQ. As the athletes learn the other skills making educated reads of how defenders are playing to your actions is key for my athletes to dominate against others because seeing before doing is the biggest detail that many athletes fail to understand. But I use innovative concepts to teach layered movements and situations for them, so their game comprehension grows at an expedited rate through creative thinking methods with high accountability responses.
In conclusion, that’s the typical session plan I provide for my athletes during our workouts. To build the most dynamic player possible within their element.

Antônio (CoachUp client)
Helped me to improve a lot
Henrik (CoachUp client)
This was a great session for my 7yr son Lukas and he spent the rest of the day working on his new moves on the mini-hoop in his room!
Coach Marc gave great instructions, encouraging feedback and made sure Lukas understood the point of each exercise. Coach Marc also went out of his way to set up the session in a location that was convenient to us.
Antonio (CoachUp client)
Coach Marc's was an Excellent coach for my son. He understood right away my son skill set and where he was as a young player. The work outs and drills was so on point for my son. I saw an improvement right away. One of the other great things that i like about Coach Marc's. Was that he would ask my son question to make sure he understood what was being asked of him.. Coach would also demonstrate the move and how he wanted my son to perform the moves. One last thing that impressed me about Coach Marc. Was at the end of every session he would give my son homework. Things for him to work on thruout the day. But he would also explain the importance of these things and show him how to properly execute it. Great coach... I wish my son had more time to work with him. But im going to book coach every time my son comes back to miami to visit.
Jason (CoachUp client)
Coach Marc is awesome! I booked a session for my 7 year old son and his friend. They are at different skill levels and Coach Marc was able to instruct both with ease. He was fun, upbeat & motivating, highly knowledgeable on methods to improve technique and a great communicator. Looking forward to more sessions with Coach Marc.
