Private Lessons & Coaches in Rio Rancho, NM

I grew up learning the game of basketball on the playgrounds of New York City and Philadelphia where creativity, toughness, and resiliency mattered as much as skill. Today, I teach players how to blend imagination with strong fundamentals-shooting, ball handling, and passing as well as how to think about playing man to man defense. My coaching style is calm, clear, and structured. I can work with kids just starting out on their basketball journey or are trying out for your school team.

Hello! I’m Mrs. Loveland and I have taught grades k-5 for 15 years. My favorite subject to teach is reading & writing, but I’m also a math geek at heart! Bring on all the math! :) I enjoy working individually with students because it provides the opportunity to build relationships, provide a safe learning environment and to individualize instruction. My goal is for students to leave each day with new problem solving strategies, and feeling more prepared, confident, and optimistic. Let’s go!

I’m Sofiane Djeffal, a former collegiate and current professional soccer player for New Mexico United whose career was shaped by high-level competition and demanding training environments. Having performed at both levels, I bring firsthand experience of what it takes to progress, perform, and stand out on the field.

""Coach Sofiane is a great coach and technical player, he knows how to teach kids as well as how to play the game. Great personality, he makes the sessions very productive but also fun at the same time my daughter enjoys and looks forward to training with him. I highly recommend coach Sofiane if you are looking to improve technique, first touch, passing, shooting and awareness etc."

"Coach Eric truly has a passion for boxing and coaching. I don't have any experience in this skill and was worried that I would feel lost, but Eric made me feel empowered and comfortable.
