    Coach Cedric was amazing with my son. He made the lesson fun, but my son walked away having learned new skills and his confidence was better.

    He explained and demonstrated each drill very well. Took time to slow down and show the movements that needed adjustments. This made it very simple for my son to make corrections. In addition lots of good simple tips that instantly produced an improvement in the skill being learned. He brings a wealth of real game experience and knowledge from playing at a high level. Lots of positive feedback. We will be signing up for more lessons.

    Frequently asked questions

    The first lesson is usually an evaluation opportunity and every lesson after that will be designed specifically to cater to the players needs.

    Over 17 years of playing basketball at a high level, with 5 years of playing professionally, 3 years as a Nike Elite coach in the NIBC and now graduate assistant for Penn State Basketball in the Big 10 conference.

    $90- $125 for an hour session, but if you book and pay for multiple lessons in advance you will receive a discounted rate.

    Every summer when I would finish my season from playing overseas, I would organize a basketball camp for kids in the area. Prior to that, I would always help my former coaches out with training players at their basketball camps.

    I've worked with elementary school, middle school, high school, college, and pro athletes.

    Anytime one of my players retains the information I teach them and is able to become better because of that.

    Look for players and coaches with diverse experiences to receive coaching from. 

    What areas do you want to improve on the most or what are your goals.
