Kanali development program

When I started Kanali a year and a half ago, we focused strictly on skill development. I saw players thrive in one-on-one situations, ball-handling, and finishing—but there were obvious gaps in the simple things I assumed they would’ve learned in their team environments. The reality is, many of these programs aren’t teaching the game. And once I saw it for myself, I knew I couldn’t sit back any longer.

At Kanali Training, we believe real development goes beyond drills and reps—it starts with understanding the game. That’s why we’re launching the Kanali Development Program, a month-long intensive designed to teach players how to truly think basketball.

This program is built for players who are ready to go deeper. Every session focuses on game situations, terminology, spacing, timing, decision-making, and basketball IQ. We’re not just working on your handle or your finishing—we’re teaching you why and when to use it. This is about developing confidence, leadership, and the ability to actually process the game at a higher level.

Program Cost: $350 for the month

• 8 total sessions
   
• 90 minutes per session
   
• Tuesdays & Thursdays
   
• A complete focus on the mental side, game understanding, and real-time decision making
   
• No new players will be allowed to join after the program begins
   

We originally planned three sessions per week, but adjusted to two longer sessions (still totaling three hours per week) to better fit the demands of school, work, and family life—without compromising depth or intensity.

This isn’t just another workout—it’s a reset. A month to slow down, learn the game, and return to team play with a sharper, smarter foundation. Unless your child is already well ahead of the curve, we believe this shouldn’t be an add-on to their current schedule—it should be the priority.

If you want to double the time and have your child join additional Kanali sessions that focus strictly on skill development, that’s totally fine—but their understanding of the game has to come first. Once that foundation is set, I’ll teach them all the cool stuff that goes into becoming a great player.
