Panda Hirabayashi

Panda Hirabayashi is a military veteran, former overseas basketball player, and performance coach whose journey has taken him from the court to the stage.

During and after competing domestically in college and the American Basketball Association (ABA) and internationally on various tryout and pro tour circuits, he spent years developing athletes as a basketball skills trainer. Panda was personally selected by renowned professional shooting coach BriAnna Garza to serve as a shooting instructor for Point Guard College, helping players build elite shooting mechanics and confidence.

Beyond basketball, Panda is a certified yoga instructor, meditation teacher, and Reiki Master who integrates mindfulness, movement, and mental performance into his coaching philosophy.

Today, he is also a Denver-based DJ who currently holds a residency at Milk Bar (one Denver’s premier underground night clubs) and played at festivals such as Burning Man, Envision, & EDC Las Vegas, all in the past year.

He is a music curator, using sport, wellness, and sound to inspire connection and elevate communities. Whether he’s coaching athletes or performing for crowds, his mission remains the same: help people unlock their highest potential.
