Hi! I've been a basketball player since I was 5 years old. I started off playing Rec League, and then at around 7 I started playing club with all boys team. At 10, I started playing with an all girls club team until I went to high school. Since high school, I've been a varsity starter for all four years. Now, as a senior, I'm committed to Cal State Fullerton for the next 4 years of my basketball career. Throughout my basketball experience, I have gained so much knowledge and understanding of the game. I am constantly working out and training myself and believe I would be a good trainer in general.
I can help someone improve their game by working on change of pace, change of direction, conditioning, shooting off the dribble, transition shooting, etc.
A traditional training session would start off with stretching and then form shooting. Then all around shooting, mid range and three pointers. After, off the dribble shooting from corners, wings, and top of the key. Floaters, lay ups, and and other finishes would be implemented as well. Then finish with some transition threes and lastly free throws.
My coaching/training background includes training kids from ages 6-10. I would train around 7 of them twice a week. I did this for almost a year.
The best Coach I ever had was one of my friends dad. I really liked the way he would break down drills so you understand why/when/how you do things. He made things very easy to catch on to and had a good attitude. He was very encouraging yet he would also tell you what you're doing wrong and how to fix it.
I think athletes and parents should know about me because I believe I'm very talented and knowledgable. I think I have a lot of helpful tips and tricks that everyone could implement into their game.

If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
