1-on-1 Shooting Instruction in Melbourne, Florida

Shooting Form

There is no single, perfect shooting form, but there are certain mechanics that most great shooters share in common.

Demetri will assess your own unique shooting form and help you optimize it. Rarely will he suggest a full revamp of your form, rather, small tweaks that will lead to massive results.

  • Footwork + Stance
  • Grip + Hand Placement
  • Set Point
  • Release + Follow-through
  • Legs

Shooting Mindset

Your shooting form is only half of the puzzle. Master your shooting mindset and unleash your full potential as a shooter.

  • Confidence
  • Positive Self-Talk
  • Beliefs
  • Getting Locked-In
  • Shooting With Pressure

Game Shots

Workouts are simple: shoot game shots at game speed. The more reps you get shooting game-like shots, the more comfortable, confident, and efficient you'll be shooting those shots in real games.

There are four main types of shots in basketball. Expect to shoot a couple hundred shots each workout, split between these four categories:

  • Spot-Up
  • On-The-Move
  • Off-The-Dribble
  • Triple-Threat

Getting to train with Demetri for overseas basketball has been a tremendous experience for me. I am very impressed with his knowledge of the game and his dedication to helping me improve. Demetri is personable, supportive and easy to work with. He listens to me about specifically what I want to work on and implements the proper drills to do so. His passion for the game helps push me every workout which directly translates into gameplay. I would not be able to compete with other professionals without the training I receive from Demetri.

About Coach Demetri

Hey, I'm Demetri and thanks for checking out the site. I have 9 years experience as a basketball trainer and I've worked with hundreds of boys and girls of all ages - from first graders learning to shoot for the first time to college players looking to play internationally. 

I've spent my entire life obsessing over the art that is shooting a basketball. All I ever wanted to do since I was a kid was become an automatic shooter and I've learned a lot along the way. I would truly love to share everything I've learned with you so that you can become a knock-down shooter too.

Working with Demetri has been a blessing and he has really helped my game. The one thing I look at after every workout is did I get better? Did I improve? The answer is yes I did. Demetri really pushes me to get better in every single drill we do. He's also a great motivator because there are several times where I get stuck on a drill and can't get past it. Demetri is super patient and is very encouraging and it really motivates me to get the drill done. My ball-handling and shot has improved a lot and I'm going into my senior season with a lot of confidence thanks to DZ Basketball.
