I have been teaching personalized basketball lessons since I graduated from Haverford College in 2005. I have taught players of all skills levels and age ranges during that time in both an individual and group setting.
There is no secret recipe to becoming a better shooter. The fact of the matter is that becoming a great shooter really comes down to two things: knowledge and repetition. Repetition is accomplished through hours and hours of practicing to fine-tune and master the basketball shot. However, the "knowledge" portion is a little more challenging to accomplish. That is where we come in to play! Utilizing our years of basketball knowledge and training, we have put together an advanced -- but not complicated -- system for analyzing a player's shot. We are firm believers that one of the best ways for a player to become a better shooter is to first see what he or she is doing well and ultimately where he or she can improve.

Coach Mark is a GREAT coach. He relates exceptionally well to players at all ages and levels. Mark clearly knows the proper form and techniques to be a sound basketball player, and most importantly, he knows how to teach his students.
Mark is prompt & professional w/ communication. My son always comes home from his training eager to show me what they worked on. I see his confidence growing w/ each session.
