Training with Coach Mook is definitely something I would recommend. He teaches the foundation and make sure you become a pro at it, while challenging you. An overall really good trainer with good prices.

Mook is an incredible coach. He’s extremely knowledgeable and very motivating and encouraging throughout the lesson. I’ve noticed my basketball skills drastically increase in only a few lessons. I highly recommend working with him as both a beginner and professional!

Michael is amazing. I started playing basketball just as a fun hobby in my free time, and from the very first lesson, I could already tell I was learning so much. Michael knows the game inside and out, and after just two lessons, I saw a huge improvement. I’d recommend him to anyone in a heartbeat.
He works with a lot of high-level players—people who are seriously training to play at a professional level—but he still made the experience fun and accessible for me, even though I’m just getting started. I’m super grateful he was willing to help me out and share his knowledge. Very glad I found him!

This past summer, my son had the privilege of being coached by Coach Mike and I couldnt be more impressed. Over the course of the summer, I saw incredible growth in his basketball skills, but more importantly, he developed a stronger sense of teamwork, discipline, and sportsmanship.
Coach Mike created an environment that was both fun and challenging. He focused not only on individual skill development but also on fostering collaboration and communication on the court. The balance of technical drills, strategic gameplay, and life lessons Coach provided helped my son become a more well-rounded player. We are truly grateful for the positive experience this summer, and I look forward to having my son work with Coach Mike again in the future. Thank you for making this summer both enjoyable and transformative!
