Bio: Coleman Ayers

Coleman launched By Any Means as a high schooler in 2015, with a mission to do change the world with a basketball. The vision began with Coleman pioneering the #AttentionToDetail series on YouTube while training local hoopers as a 16 year old hooper, and has grown into a global movement with an audience of over 500,000, as well as over a hundred hoopers trained in-person at every level.

Coleman's philosophy revolves around using science and research-backed methods to optimize the training of athletes. Skills training, and performance training are Coleman's specialties, as well as the nutrition, recovery, and psychology components that go into engineering the complete basketball player.

Coleman received his Bachelor's degree in Exercise Physiology at the University of Miami and is located in the Miami, FL metro area.

What's New?

Chile Camp & Conference

On October 15th and 16th, Coleman headed to Santiago, Chile to co-run the Prehab Science Primer Campus Internacional for upwards of 20 coaches and 40 players. The camp brought together some of Latin America's best skills and performance trainers, and provided a nice spark for the Chilean and South American hoop culture! As you can see in this video, this experience was one that took significant preparation and vulnerability, with Coleman presenting in Spanish - a language he has only been learning for truly less than a year!

Australia tour

For almost three weeks in September, Coleman and the team made the 9,000-mile journey down under to work with over 400 hoopers across four cities! Making stops in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, and the Sunshine Coast for both player camps and coaches' education clinics, the team took even more steps closer to the ultimate goal of making an impact worldwide and spreading innovation and inspiration to new hoop cultures across the globe. Check out the recap and educational content on our Instagram or YouTube channels, and keep an eye on where Coleman is headed next!
