To me AB workshop is fun. If we do a good job, we get to scrimmage at the end. When it is time to go home, they give us a snack. I really like it.”

“Kingston has strong leadership abilities, but is quick to get shy. When he is at AB workshop he is able to witness other kids his age using their leadership skills. He is learning tons of life skills not just basketball drills. The best is he is learning from some of the best kids and their parents, thanks Coach Ace and Bird. We love the AB workshop family ❤️

I would like to say AB workshop has been a great program for me and my family. Since joining AB workshop, I’ve seen my son and both my daughters not only gain more basketball skills, but their social skills and confidence have excelled. We’ve been a part of many different programs in the past years that were mainly geared towards just basketball. I knew my kids needed more than just to be taught the game of basketball; they needed to learn life skills, build self-esteem, confidence, motivation, and social skills. From what I’ve seen so far, they have all improved in these areas since joining AB workshop.” We love our village💙💙🤞🏽🤞🏽

Ab workshop means everything to my boys. I’ve watched them go to bed making sure not to forget to set their alarms in excitement to wake up at 4 am to be at the gym by 5 am. It’s building character in them, they are learning from other young boys & girls how to be kind, grateful & help out one another. As a parent I love the early routine AB workshop has & since I workout at 5 am anyway I can hold myself accountable. Those children don’t have to be there they want to be there and I love to see it.

Waking up at 5 AM to work out is something only really dedicated people do. It’s not easy getting out of bed when it’s still dark, but the ones who do are super focused and tough. The people who show up that early really love the game and want to get better, even when everyone else is sleeping. You can tell they’re good people because they help each other out, and it’s not just about winning. They come to play no matter what, even if they have school or other stuff going on later. Plus, it’s cool because the court is so quiet, and it feels like it’s just you and your friends developing and growing together. I think Coach Ace and Coach Bird, are awesome because they care about improving and are always there for each other.

When I first noticed the workshop, it was during Christmas break of 2023. My son Kaylen loves basketball and is my early morning riser so I pitched him the idea of going just to see what it was like and he was so excited! At that time, I didn’t realize what type of community the workshop provided. I quickly learned that they were great role models for the community and help improve my child skills. Yes! but it was so much deeper than that. Constantly encouraging each other, cheering for each other, pushing the kids to do their best with positive reinforcement and really building that family on the court.

The AB workshop has instilled confidence in my three boys, not only in themselves but also in their interactions with others. It has taught them the importance of respect and clarity in their communication. Before participating in the workshop, they tended to stay within their comfort zones, but I’ve witnessed remarkable growth in both their basketball skills and their overall life abilities. They now actively encourage their peers to strive for excellence and go the extra mile. I am eager to continue supporting this workshop, as it fosters not only personal development but also meaningful, lasting relationships within our community. We truly exemplify the spirit of a village.

AB means to me a place where my daughter can go a learn skills needed to be a good player and team mate. Both Coach Ace and Bird pour into our daughter not just basketball skills but also life lessons of working hard, respecting one another, and lifting each other up with words of encouragement
