About Miles
Basketball training with Coach Miles Burnside is an experience that athletes will want to come back to every single time. Specializing in skill development, Coach Miles not only has a collegiate and professional resume under his belt, but an understanding of player psychology and has helped numerous players find and reach their protential time and time again. He believes that true potential is limitless and pushes every athlete to be the very best they can be. For 10+ years Coach Miles has voluneered and coached all ages from youth to professional and has worked with players from all over the globe.The number one aspect he enjoys most about my work, is developing a bond between coach and the player. His commitment to them is more than just getting them to a certain level of play, it is to help them succeed in their passions in life. Mentorship is essential to all athletes and Coach Miles is a player’s coach that cultivates positivity and hard work ethic.
I began by volunteering time to my Jr. High school while I was a Varsity player in High School. I also helped out with many camps and the annual special olympics tournament we held every year at my school.
I have over 20 years of playing experience. I lettered 2 years in high school, played 4 years of collegiate basketball and 2 years as a professional in Europe. My coaching knowledge has been built over these years through experience, countless hours of game study, documentaries on players, drill/skill breakdowns, volunteer coaching for camps, paid coaching for American and international teams, etc.

I assess the skill level of the athlete by administering several drills that touch on all aspects of basketball. For example, ball handling, dribbling, shooting, passing, athletic ability, footwork, IQ and mental/emotional well being. I offer a lot of encouragement throughout my session and I am not afraid to break down the barriers of being "shy" or "uncomfortable". I create a positive environment and I expect 100 percent effort
All ages and all different backgrounds. I love diversity and getting to know people from different backgrounds. When I coached in Europe, I had the opportunity to coach a 16U Boys team with 14 players from 12 different countries.
Look for a teacher who goes beyond the skills they are teaching. Someone who gets to know the student more than the student is getting to know how to do what they want to do. A teacher who is always working to get the absolute best out of the pupil.
In 2019 I coached 16U, 14U boys and 17U girls. My girls team played in the Battle of the Bayou in New Orleans, Louisiana where we took 2nd in the silver bracket and 6th overall out of 200+ teams, with only 6 girls on the roster. I have yet to coach a team with more heart, determination, and chemistry as them.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Can I match the work ethic of my teacher?
Can I fulfill what they are expecting?
Am I committed enough to see long term results rather than a short term fix to what I lack?
All of the answers should be yes.

I coached along side Coach Miles. He's one of the most knowledgeable basketball guys I've ever met. Players love him!
Working with Miles has been extremely rewarding in my basketball career. After training with him in person for three weeks and online from time to time, my game, knowledge, and confidence has improved immensely; especially from averaging 6ppg to 20ppg. Without the help from Miles, I wouldn’t be the player I am today, nor would I have been able to get noticed and offers from universities and colleges. Within the shorter time span we had, Miles was able to better me holistically than any other trainer I’ve trained with. His keen knowledge, expertise, support, and love for the game is like no other. Seriously, I highly recommend him to all players who are wanting to get better and willing to
put in the work.Miles has encyclopedic knowledge of basketball. His ability to relate to players and communicate is outstanding. If you’re wanting to provide your child with the tools to grow and thrive, I would 100% recommend Coach Miles!
My son currently has basketball lessons with Coach Miles, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. Coach Miles exhibits a level of professionalism and expertise that immediately put him at ease.
Throughout the lessons, Coach Miles not only helped my son improve his technical skills, but also provided invaluable insights into strategy and game tactics. His teaching style was dynamic and adaptable, catering to his individual strengths and weaknesses. I appreciated how he broke down complex plays into manageable steps, making them easier to grasp and implement during game situations.
Moreover, Coach Miles fostered a positive and inclusive learning environment, where mistakes were viewed as opportunities for growth rather than setbacks. His passion for the game is infectious, and it motivated my son to strive for excellence both on and off the court.Deep explanation of foot work and why it is so important. My kids look forward to attending sessions!
Miles is a true pro who is very adept at working with kids to help them through whatever situation they may be struggling with, or working through, in the moment, whether it be something related to footwork, movement, or the mental aspect of it all.
Miles has been working with my daughter for several months and I've noticed a huge improvement, not only in her skill level, but her confidence as well. He is great at finding her weaknesses and turning them into her strengths. Would definitely recommend him to anyone!
He has been instrumental in helping my daughter improve not only her physical skills in basketball but just importantly her confidence and mental game. Highly recommend!
Coach Miles is very experienced and knows his way around a basketball court. He is fantastic at diagnosing his clients individual needs and assessing both situations he has seen and heard about. He has helped my game evolve leaps and bounds, and he’s just a straight up cool dude.
Very knowledgeable about the game and skills. Learned new things to help improve my game on the court.
Would highly recommend👍Very structured practices
