learn the exact mindset and skills i used in my career
Having a successful basketball career isn't rocket science – but you do have to put in the work. Beyond developing your skills as a post player, I'll teach you how to develop mental toughness and the attitude you need to adapt to any challenge, on and off the court.

Who is the membership for?
The Rising Star
Playing on a school or club team, this player is just starting to take basketball seriously. She wants to build a strong foundation in the post, and is ready to develop her post moves, footwork, and confidence in the paint.
The Confident Competitor
Starting to play varsity or competitive club basketball, this player has solid fundamentals but knows she can do more. She wants to refine her post moves, develop counters, improve finishing through contact, and increase her basketball IQ.
The High Level Post Player
A varsity or elite club team player, she already has high level skill but wants full access mentorship to take her game to the next level. She's looking to master advanced post moves, develop a 3-level scoring game, excel in high pressure situations, and compete at the next level (college recruitment or top club teams).
What Parents Say
"Coach Anna is a game changer, literally!! She empathizes and cares deeply. She meets physical, emotional and spiritual needs that are rarely found in the competitive framework of a high school, AAU or collegiate team. The result of my daughter’s mentorship with coach Anna is quantifiable on and off the court. She has helped my daughter restore her joy and confidence in basketball and in life."
Wendy S.
Parent
"Coach Anna was transformational with our daughter. She was the first coach our daughter had who knew the post position at an elite level. She developed a deep sense of trust with our daughter through her mentorship in both post skills and mindset development."
Aaron
Parent
"We feel incredibly blessed to have found Anna and are thankful for all of the skills that she brings to the table. As our daughter is a post player, it was important to us that she not only learn the physical post skills but also how to mentally manage being a "big". Anna's approach is more than just coaching, she truly cares about our daughter."
Ann
Parent
"We found Anna DeHamer after searching for a post trainer for our daughter for years. Anna is encouraging and professional, she’s also a good listener and uses her expertise to fill the skills gaps our daughter had. We saw our daughter's confidence grow on and off the court as she practiced what she was learning."
Pauli
Parent
"My daughter has really enjoyed learning from Anna and her mentorship. Anna gave her great tools to use off and on the court. My daughter now holds her own with the big girls as a small post and feels her game intelligence has improved greatly."
Wendy
Parent
"Anna has so much post knowledge to share and does it in a fun and productive way. She has fostered a love of basketball for my 13 year old. A great role model for young girls!"
Kristen
Parent
"Anna has been fantastic for our daughter. Her style and knowledge complemented our daughter's development. We have seen our daughter grow; Anna is a significant part of that change. Playing post is a unique skill in multiple ways, and Anna's experience, insight, and techniques have proven invaluable."

Is this right for you?
The Forge is for post players at any level, but it definitely isn't for everyone.
This is for you if:
You're serious about improving your post game and are ready to commit to weekly coaching.
You want personalized guidance to strengthen skills, improve mentality, and dominate the paint.
You're open to learning both skill development and mindset training.
You're ready to bring focus, effort, and a growth mindset to every session.
You're eager to track progress, set goals, and actively work on drills between sessions.
You want mentorship from someone who has been through the post player journey and can guide you personally.
This is not for you if:
You're not interested in consistent practice or putting in the work between sessions.
You're looking for a casual program with minimal accountability.
You only want to focus on physical skills without addressing mental toughness or confidence.
You aren't motivated to push yourself or grow in your game.
You're looking for a "one and done" solution with no follow-through.
You expect generic group lessons without individualized attention.
"Over the last six months, I’ve had the opportunity to work with Coach Anna. She’s truly shifted my mentality and perspective on basketball. She’s been a wonderfully safe and wise coach for me to talk to and debrief with as she’s been in my spot and understands what I am facing. I’ve been blessed by her mentorship and the wisdom that she’s given me. I feel way more confident, composed and have a better outlook on the game from spending quality time with her."

Meet your mentor
Hi! I'm Coach Anna.
I’m a former Division 1 collegiate post player and WNBA draftee. I’ve been playing basketball since my dad, also a former Division 1 collegiate post player, started teaching me the game in kindergarten. I've been working with post players for the last 10+ years since finishing my Division 1 career and time in the WNBA.
I’m excited to introduce The Forge, a 1:1 mentoring membership designed for serious players ready to elevate their game.
Over six months, your daughter will receive personalized coaching through weekly virtual sessions, structured training plans, and full access to the Hammer Basketball App.
The membership is built to strengthen post skills, develop mental toughness, and build confidence - both on and off the court - while providing direct access to a mentor who truly understands the unique challenges of being a post player.
If your daughter is ready to commit, improve, and step into her full potential, this membership gives her the guidance and mentorship she needs to thrive.
I’d love to answer any questions you or your daughter may have, and discuss how she could benefit from working together.
Sincerely,
Still have questions?
