About this pro
My name is Samarie Walker, former UCONN, Kentucky, and international pro women's basketball player. From youth to the pros, I've won several MVP and First Team awards. I was a McDonald's and WBCA All-American (before they had the Jordan Games), was invited to the USA Olympic team tryouts 3x, and was also projected to be a WNBA draft pick.
My life, basketball career, and lack of support for my mental health taught me to be who I need at all times. This has led me to being a lifestyle coach and basketball and sport performance trainer. With kids, I always try to put myself in my shoes at that age. How would I want someone to treat me if I was nervous or didn't understand something? What would I want my coach to say when I'm having a bad practice or game? As an adult, how do I want someone to speak to and see me when I'm trying my hardest but the results may not always show?
Book with me to get LIFE CHANGING RESULTS! You WILL become a legendary leader.
Genuinely connecting with others and positively impacting their lives forever

Coach Walker taught me things I would have never learned with another coach. She helped me become more confident and helped me become a better basketball player. Not only did she teach me about basketball but taught me life lessons and I will always remember!!

Coach Samarie Walker was a great coach to me. She encouraged, taught, and guided me! I believe, even though it didn't work out for the lady hoop stars, that one day she will be an amazing coach! Coach Samarie may of quit but no matter what she will always be my coach...she made me more confident than any coach I had before and when I stopped believing in myself or when I told myself I couldn't do something, she told me otherwise! Coach Samarie if your reading this, THANK YOU!
