More About Coach Michael

I have been coaching at the collegiate level for 23 years. 15 of those years were with NCAA and community college players while the last 8 collegiate women. I have helped 9 players play Division 1 basketball while helping dozens more play NCAA Division 2, 3 and NAIA ball. I have coached ages 8 and up as well as professional players. I most recently was a head college coach for a women's basketball program and before that was an Associate Head Coach for a men's college program. I believe in a holistic approach towards coaching including but not limited to sleep, diet, the 5 fitness components, the mental side of sport, and on court training.

I played high school basketball, tennis and baseball as well as college basketball and college tennis. I played in some semi-professional summer leagues with the likes of Chris Webber, Glenn Rice, Jim Jackson, and other former NBA players. I was voted MVP in college as a junior. I shot nearly 40% from 3 and close to 80% from the foul line. I hold the school record for 3 point field goal percentage in a game making 5/6. I was also All-Conference as an intercollegiate tennis player my senior year. I played collegiately at San Diego Mesa College for 2 years before transferring to Goucher College for my final two years.

I will work on everything from explosive training, conditioning, ball handling, confusion, rhythmic and non-rhythmic ball handling and shooting, strength training, My specialty however is the technical components of shooting and individual moves. I teach players the nuances and subtleties of knowing when to create or reduce space between themselves and the defender, situational decisions as when to pass, drive, or attempt to score, and the mental side of sport. Everything is based on the clients needs and skill set, goals, and length of the sessions. I also have been teaching Health Education for roughly 2 decades and believe wholeheartedly in this component as to the players overall development.

Michael helps me understand the game at a high level.

Coach Michael completely transformed my daughter's shot and he gave her the confidence to move to new positions and to take her game to a higher level.

Coach Michael provided great feedback and developmental skills to my 12-year-old son after his first session. My son enjoyed his training and enthusiasm for the game!

Coach Michael really knows his stuff! My 12 year old loved the session and said "he's really gonna take my game to the next level!" We'll definitely be continuing sessions for him as we prep him to make the high school basketball team.

Thank you for today. Very good work for me and I loved every workout we did.

very good coach,able to motivate players and work on their mental games instead of only physical game
