More About Coach Nikolas

I've been coaching and training athletes for 10 years now. I've coached at the d3 level for men and women, and I've also coached high school basketball, and middle school basketball for private schools, public schools and AAU programs. I currently run an AAU program called Dash elite basketball where our focus is service and development. My training program is called "Trained to Go Basketball"

I did not play at the college level, but I joined a collegiate staff at the age of 19. I am currently going back to school to further my career as a basketball coach at the collegiate level.

Typically, our workout sessions are catered to the needs of the player. We train movements, not just moves. Our focus is skill development and efficiency so we do lots of ball handling and shooting. We also teach different variations of finishing and teach key concepts and micro skills that go unnoticed at all levels. Training is intentional and specified to maximize the development of the athlete.

Excellent coach! Will be using him again!

Coach Nikolas's is awesome. He works with my 8 year old daughter. This is her 1st yr attempting to play basketball & although she's a beginner coach is patient & still challenges her to reach new levels every session. I can tell the difference in her confidence, understanding, & even her skill level after just 2 sessions. We definitely plan to continue working with coach Nikolas long term. Definitely worth the investment

Great work

Coach Niko is AMAZING!! He takes the time to come up with workouts specifically for me and my personal goals. He is encouraging, and pushes me past what I think my limit is every session, and I always finish feeling accomplished and positive. I’ve been working with Coach Niko for about 2 months and am EXTREMELY happy with my progress! There have been times when I wanted to give up but he has always been super encouraging, positive, and helpful in getting me to do my best and reaching my goals. I can’t express how much I appreciate the time and effort he puts into our sessions as well as personalizing my workouts so that I can also do them on my own. He is the reason I don’t quit on myself, and he always reminds me: “Trained to go. Built to win” and I’ve never worked as hard as I have with him during our training sessions. He is the best trainer I’ve ever worked with! THANK YOU COACH NIKO!!!
I love it ! My child has shown improvement overnight he is very patient and understands what he needs to work on . I would not take her anywhere else !
Great Teacher, Great Experience.
Trained To Go has advanced my daughters skills. Niko breaks her game film down and focuses on what he can do to make her better. She has become more agile and balanced with her ball handling. She is building her confidence to attack in the basket in the paint. I would highly recommend this training program.
amazing training. they always push you to be the best you can be and help you get stronger mentally and physically. they train based off your injury and help work that muscle back up. 100/10 recommend.
This is the best place to when in need of help with your basketball skills. Don’t get me wrong some things were a challenge but they would always motivate you to keep going. They helped me become confident on the court. They also helped me improve in a lot.
The drills resemble real life scenarios and the training makes you a more confident and efficient scorer.
Coach Niko has a lot of knowledge and has the patience to work with beginners and drills and coaching to improve skills to take you to the next level.
In the short time that my son has been training, I’ve seen tremendous growth and his love for basketball has only evolved even more. I appreciate the fact that the drills are explained in detail and when the kiddos make a mistake, they are shown how to correct and perfect what they’re learning. I definitely recommend signing up for training!
Coach Niko helped my handles tremendously. I could barely dribble a ball down the court before training with coach. He helps with in-game moves and focuses on the little things that will help your game. I look forward to continue working with coach to take my game to another level!!!!
I’ve had my children with many trainers through the years and I can seriously say that Nikko is by far the best! He doesn’t just run mindless drills like many trainers do but he caters to what your child needs to work on to become a better player. Anyone looking for quality basketball training with true results- Please book a few sessions with Nikko! I promise you won’t be disappointed. We will be back for daughter and son. Keep it up Nikko!
We are so glad we found Niko and TTG! In only a couple of sessions I could see my son getting better and playing with more confidence. Niko does a great job at breaking it down, bringing it back to the basics and doesn't move on until the player fully comprehends the play/move. He genuinely cares about the development of all his athletes. When looking for a coach/trainer you need someone that believes in your child, meets the athlete where they are at and pushes them to grow into the best athlete they can be. For us, that's Niko! We are looking forward to continuing this journey with him for many more years! Thanks TTG!
Hands down Coach Niko is one of the best trainers out there. Not only does he recognize someone’s strengths and weaknesses, but he also builds the trainings around those weaknesses. He is not a trainer that just throws “typical” basketball drills out there. His trainings are revolves around real game time play, meaning every drill he has a player do, translates straight to game time. He has helped my son in more ways than I can repay him! Keep up the great work Coach Niko!
