Experienced tutor in Basketball in Indianapolis, Virgil offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Virgil is an excellent trainer/coach that is equally good at training young, inexperienced players (grade school age) as well as more experienced older kids (highschool age). Virgil, Coach Tibbs, has been instrumental in the development of my youngest (he is now a senior) and I credit much of his success to the patience and effort of Coach Akers.

The opportunity was knowledgeable for me in my son plus family and close friends
we went on many summer tournaments, practice twice a week had 1 on 1 seasons which he help build my son speed and awareness on field and on court
His defense skill is now out standing and endurance for a 11/12/13 year old was able to run with high schooler in which my son was granted that amazing chance with HDB
Me in my son Mom(Renika) attend all functions sport wise we had to learn to give all access to couch Virg in order for our son to listen and learn meaning drop him off to training sessions not attend which cause distractions and lose of focus
Before HDB my son couldn’t made the team at Southport Middle School starting his 8th grade year he was the leading tackle in football middle line backer and now playing on the 8th grade basketball team
HDB Training was well needed and looking forwards to another training season this coming off season as well
Appreciate the Opportunity & Experience
Coach Virg

Virgil is very knowledgeable about the game of basketball. He showed my son drills to help increase his speed and ball handling skills. My son has improved from working with HBD!

Very patient, very knowledgeable trainer. My son had never played basketball before and he had my son dribbling with his head up and shooting jump shots within the first session!

I loved working with HDB Training! It was a great learning experience for my son I saw his skills and confidence improve. Coach fosters a team environment that has the players flourishing on and off the court. The passion that he has for their overall well being is impressive. I can tell he does it not just for the love of the game but because he cares and enjoys giving back. I love seeing the growth from where we started to now. And seeing my son apply what he’s learned on the court at school games.

Working with Coach Akers has honestly been one of the best decisions I’ve made for myself. What I love the most is the flexibility — he works around real-life schedules, not those imaginary “perfect days” we wish we had. He understands that I’m juggling work, kids, and life, and he still makes sure I stay on track without feeling overwhelmed.

On top of that, his knowledge is unmatched. He doesn’t just tell you what to do — he explains why you’re doing it, how it helps your body, and how to build habits that actually stick. I never feel lost, and I definitely never feel judged. He pushes you, but he also supports you every step of the way.

If you’re looking for a trainer who knows his stuff, works with your schedule, and actually cares about your growth, Coach Akers is the one. Period.

Virgil is a really amazing motivator and he pushes you without beating you down. Makes workout plans specific your needs and goals! So excited to see how far we can go

Phenomenal character, patient, knows what he is doing, very detailed in every exercise and very direct. One of the best trainers I ever had in my life. Continue doing your business, sir. I appreciate your time and willingness to improve my health.

Calm demeanor, was able to communicate effectively with my kids. Overall helped them both develop strength. He knows what it takes . He was also very flexible and made time. He is truly dedicated and it you will definitely see a difference.
