Class Description:

This will be an ongoing course that will break down the advanced skills of basketball. The students will get the opportunity to focus on the technical skills of basketball. This is how I started as a young learner and was able to play in the NCAA and professionally.
The class will begin with a warm-up led by myself or Coach Mike as we give positive feedback and encouragement. Each exercise will be demonstrated by myself with a true breakdown and description. I will be engaged with the students and be teaching them about different reads and decision-making scenarios that can take place during a basketball game.
