Rise Up Basketball

If you love basketball and wanna get better hire these guys they are pros!
I brought my 9 year old son and he has improved 100% since training with these guys.

Brock and DJ are the best. We’ve been training for about 2 years. Training is hard, focused and fun. They’re flexible with schedule and care about the kids. Thx for everything guys!

Topnotch coach
DJ has been extremely efficient and nice
Great coach, great guy, serious workout and training
Highly Recommended !

I’ve been working with Brock, Phil and DJ for about six months. As an adult, I was looking for a different kind of workout — so tired of going to the gym! Basketball sounded fun. I love working out outside and every day the workouts are different, so I’m constantly motivated to go… It’s been a long time since I’ve been so consistent with a workout plan. I’ve also had sessions that are focused on fitness/​weights instead of basketball, and those are some of the best personal training sessions I’ve ever had. Finding a good trainer in L.A. can be difficult, so many are actors just doing it on the side… I highly recommend Rise Up for basketball and personal training.

Phil and Brock have been working with my daughter off and on for a while now. They both have a deep respect and love for the game and it rubs off on anyone they coach.
My daughter is now being primed to be the starting Point Guard for her freshman team, thanks to Phil and Brock.
with these guys your kids will:
— have exceptional ball handling skills
— have perfect form (pointed out by her freshman coaches)
— discover a new love for the game, with almost immediate results.
my highest recommendation.

My two sons, eight and ten years old, have been training with Rise Up for a few months now and I have been very impressed. Phil is their main coach but Brock has also shown up on occasion. Phil is very patient with the boys and is teaching them skills they would not get while playing in the local league because of the lack of individual attention and skills of the volunteer parent/​coaches. I like that the children are given drills — «homework» — to do in between their sessions so it’s helping to keep them active and provides an alternative to video game playing. They are very polite, prompt and easy to schedule with. One of my children has moderate ADHD which sometimes is apparent, but Phil has been patient and gentle while offering tons of encouragement. I highly recommend Rise Up.

Phil has been working with my 8 year-​old son for a few months now, and after the first lesson, my husband and I saw immediate improvement in his
game. Phil was able to identify my son’s strengths and weaknesses, and developed individualized drills that helped take him to a whole new level! The drills are challenging, but Phil ignited a fire in my son, and an insatiable passion for The Game.
Besides always being prompt, Phil was very respectful of my time and availability. He connected with my son in a way that other
private coaches weren’t able to. The one-​on-​one coaching technique is definitely the way to go if you want your child to really understand how to
play basketball. Both my husband and I can’t thank Phil enough for his patience, enthusiasm, and extensive knowledge of basketball, that he has shared with our son.

If you want to get better at basketball, or if you want someone to help your son or daughter get better at basketball, Brock is the best.
I played basketball in high school but wanted to get better to play in some work pick up games and found Brock through Unilocal.He exceeded my expectations in every way. We worked out twice a week up in North Hollywood for four months. I saw a major improvement in my playing even after our first session.
One major thing that makes Brock stand out is that he is a great teacher. I’m a teacher myself and recognize that in him. He can explain the game and the plays and the strategy so that you aren’t just running around the court willy-​nilly– you understand why you’re doing it and what you are trying to accomplish and why you should fake this way and cross-​over dribble here, etc. He doesn’t just teach you «how,» he teaches you «why.»
Brock coaches some middle school and high school teams as well. And he would be awesome to bring into your kid’s rec league to show them some fundamentals and great drills. He would also be great helping your son or daughter get better to make the jayvee or varsity team or a travel team.
He is incredibly nice and reliable as well.

Heard about them through a friend and thought I would give them a try. Needed to get my son off the video games and into something else. Since he’s into basketball figured this would be a good fit. They have great prices compared to some other companies which is a definite plus. After a week or so my son was looking forward to every session. The main trainer Brock is a great coach, Very polite and good with kids. Only reason I give it 4 stars is because they don’t have to many locations. And traffic in la isn’t to kind. Definitely recommend to all parents in need of a cheap activity for their kids.
