Coach Dwane has been very patient and amazing with instructing my 15 year old daughter. She has had 2 sessions and has learned so much already as she had no prior experience.
He’s professional and personable and we love that!
I love how he encourages her throughout her sessions and does not allow her to give up on herself . At the end of each session he finishes off with a summary of what was learned and tips on what she needs to practice on throughout the week.
If you’re looking for a great coach , don’t hesitate , book Coach Dwane!

Coach Dwane is very friendly and has a custom approach in training - I'm a working adult and we're doing 1 on 1 sessions and he is able to understand my abilities and push me to improve while not completely demolishing my body. He is very encouraging and I would highly recommend!

Coach Dwane is great! My 14-year-old son has had two coaching sessions with him and has learned a lot so far. Dwane has provided my son with clear, easy to understand feedback on his skills and tangible steps to take to improve. Dwane walks through a list of items at the end of each session for my son to work on for the next session. Working with Dwane has been very motivating for my son. We look forward to continuing coaching sessions with Dwane.

Dwane did a great job with our 9 year old daughter. She had never really played before and I know it can be really hard to start with a true beginner but she got a lot of the basic skills and is eager to learn more.
Gregory
Coach Dwane Samuels did an excellent job. During the first session he illustrated areas of needed improvement and demonstrated the methodology to improve. Class act and first rate.
Anika
Both my sons have been trained by Coach Dwayne and have nothing but good things to say. My oldest 19 year old said, “He did well as a coach and motivated me to do better”. My 12 year old said, “He was very nice and and helped me strengthen my weaknesses with drills.” As a parent, he was responsive, understood my sons and was flexible with scheduling if timings did not work out.
Cathy
Coach Dwane was awesome. He didn't sugarcoat it with my son. He told him what he needs to work on every day, showed him how to do certain things and didn't accept half ass work. He pushed him out of his comfort zone and my son really appreciated it. I highly recommend coach Dwane. Thank you!
Emily
Coach Dwane is amazing! He has been working with my six year old son for a few sessions and is so patient, kind and informative. He is firm, yet encouraging and has been teaching my son new skills at each session. Highly recommend!
Susan
We had a great first experience with Coach Dwane. My son was pretty nervous, and Coach Dwane immediately put him at ease. My son ended up having a great time, and working hard, and is excited for his next session, which we've already got scheduled. (Coach Dwane also was very understanding of our shifting schedule and worked to fit us in on a busy Saturday.) My son came home inspired and has been showing me the drills that Coach Dwane had him practice. From the bleachers I could sense Coach Dwane's kindness and his nice balance between pushing and praise. And of course he knows his stuff. I definitely recommend Coach Dwane to players and parents!
Pamela
This is a quote from my son, “Coach Dwane is a very good coach because he pushes you to learn new skills while making it fun”.
Kermit
In the first session, Coach Dwane Samuels helped our young student-athlete work on his footwork, ball handling, shooting and curling to the basket. Coach encouraged him saying the following "He has a lot of potential and will make an impact on the court once he apply the basic fundamentals. His tremendous work ethics will take him over the top! Keep up the Great Work!!!" Coach Dwane has our young athlete practicing the fundamentals he learned in anticipation of his next lesson. We couldn't ask for more! Kudos - we highly recommend Coach Dwane!
Patty
Coach Dwane trained my 13 year old son. My son is incredibly excited to practice what he learned and wants to book another training session ASAP. My son said that Dwane was incredibly knowledgeable and quickly assessed his strengths and weaknesses and what he needed to work on most. They worked hard and got an incredible amount done in one hour. We will be booking more with Dwane and highly recommend him to anyone that wants to improve their game.
Amanda
Coach Dwane is an inspiration. His manner of coaching was professional and encouraging. His ability to relate to who he is coaching is fantastic. I would highly recommend Coach Dwane to anyone of any ability - he will work with you to achieve a higher standard of basketball than you are currently at. It was an absolute pleasure and honor to be able to have some professional coaching from Coach Dwane. Many many thanks.

Dwane was great to work with! He was responsive and easy to schedule. My son is 7 and Dwane put together great workouts that were both fun and focused on improving his fundamentals. I would highly recommend working with Dwane!
Corey
Dwane was a great coach! He helped me and my friends practice drills, dribbling techniques, and shooting techniques. After our lesson, I feel much more confident in my basketball abilities. Dwane even offered to meet up to play again after the lesson! I would definitely recommend Dwane and will be taking more lessons myself!
Jason
Phenomenal coach. Takes the time to show the drills and didn't let my son slack on them. Son truly enjoyed his time with Coach Dwane!
Grace
Coach Dwane packed a whole lot into my daughter's first session. In fact, he gave her an extra 15 minutes! Dwane is a skilled baller and an awesome teacher. He put my teen at ease, boosted her confidence, and improved her game in just one session. We are definitely going to be coming back for more lessons.
Andrea
Coach Dwane thoroughly assessed my grandson's skills and tailored his session on what he needed to work on. The day after his first session he hit the winning basket for his team utilizing what coach worked on with him.Definitely a 5* gold coach that I would highly recommend.
Tiffany
Great coach! Coach Dwane was able to assess our son's skill level very quickly and adjusted the training session to match. Our son was able to take what he learned in one session and applied to his next game.
Cecillia
Having Coach Dwane work with our family has been a privilege and an honor. Coach Dwane has been kind, gracious, organized, and patient with his teaching of the fundamentals of basketball. He segments and adjusts the sessions according to the area of need and personality of the trainee. Coach Dwane is adept in building upon the skills from the previous session. Step by step, Coach Dwane will guide you to the skill level and heights of making that "slam dunk." Definitely worth every minute!

Coach Dwane is patient yet still challenges the student to develop all of the necessary skills to become a stellar player.
Wayne
Our 11 year old son looks forward every week to his session with Coach Dwane, and our son's basketball skills have continuously improved since starting the sessions. Coach Dwane gives very individualized instruction, working on skills that need improvement, but without overwhelming our son.
Sahara
After one session with Coach Dwane, I have already seen an improvement in my child's ability, but most importantly, his confidence on the court.
My son says Coach is kind, patient and understanding and we are both very excited to continue working with Coach Dwane.

100% happy with the Coach Dwane! He was very helpful with teaching and in answering any questions that I or my son had. His attention to detail and the patience displayed were professional and sincere. Needless to say, I would highly recommend Coach D to anyone looking to improve his/her game.

My 11-year old son had a great first session with Coach Dwane! He felt very comfortable with him and motivated to keep training and improving his name. Coach Dwane was excellent at assessing his current level and working with him to start building skills to improve fitness and enjoy playing with other children. Our son is very much looking forward to continue working with him!!
Lauren
Coach Dwane is everything we could hope for to not only help train our daughter but to navigate through our busy schedules to make sure we meet on a regular basis. He is an amazing athlete who has a wonderful way of sharing his vast knowledge of the sport that resonates with our 10 year old - and gives her an amazing workout as well. We couldn't be more pleased with Coach Dwane and look forward to working with him often in the future.
Rene
We are so happy that we found Coach Dwane for our 10-year old son. We told him up front that our son is eager to learn, but also can easily feel discouraged about his skills. Coach Dwane put him at ease right away, helped him to feel good about the skills he has, and homed in right away on some small changes he could make to help him show improvement fairly quickly. He came away from his lesson so excited; the moment he got home he went out to the driveway and set up cones and chairs so he could repeat the drills he had learned. Coach Dwane clearly has not only tremendous basketball skills, but tremendous teaching skills as well.
Michael
Terrific. Extraordinarily gifted athlete and educator. Made a huge difference for my son in only a few lessons. Highest recommendation.
Juliana
Coach Dwane helped my son quite a bit in just a few sessions. He gave him some great conditioning footwork drills, built his confidence in different dribbling situations and got him to really work on his follow-through.
Soraya
I would highly recommend Coach Dwane. He has been a tremendous factor in getting our son where he needs to be. He is flexible with his time and is always willing to work with us.
Lisa
After just one session with Coach Dwane I can tell he is a seasoned athlete and a natural teacher. His conditioning is relevant; his drills revealed my son's strengths and weaknesses that were then accompanied with the right practice drills to address the latter; and he delivered all of this with a positive energy and likeable demeanor. Like any young player, my son likes a little flare in his game. Coach is laser focused and sees the areas where footwork needs adjustment so that movement is fluid, effective and evasive. Looking forward to session number two.
William
Coach Dwane is an excellent coach. He works at a good pace, was able to identify areas of need and could demonstrate and provide feedback. He also provided homework for my son to continue to improve. I would strongly recommend coach Dwane and would like to continue with him teaching my son.
Nicole
Coach Dwane was great he pointed out the strengths and weaknesses and gave us homework for improvement.
Allan
Coach Dwane was excellent. He worked with several of our kids to improve their fundamentals and help them catch up to the rest of the team. Not only did he help improve their fundamentals but he improved their confidence to take more shots during games. He also gave them a number of exercises to work on at home so they don't lose their newfound skills.
