Train with me to achieve your greatest athletic potential’
Ever wondered what it’s like to train at the college level? To know what it takes to be a great athlete, on and off the field? I did too one day, and now that I know what it takes I want to help every athlete achieve the dream of competing at the highest level possible. As someone who competed at the championship level in both high school and college, I know it can be distracting and confusing on trying to get to the next level. That’s why I’m here to offer straight forward, sport specific training. I’ve had plenty of great coaches, who have shared their wisdom with me through the years. I’ve taken a lot of that wisdom and applied it to my own coaching philosophies over that last 7 years and had a lot of great success. Reach out today to learn more!

How I can help you improve your game:
I can help someone improve their game by looking for improvement in areas they might not know to look at. The best way to improve someone’s performance, is to create a big picture, and then detail the little pictures that make it up as much as possible. Constant feedback, note taking, and updating is required to get the most out of a training plan.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
A typical training session usually lasts no longer than an hour. The warmup is essential, and is different depending on the type of training day. The analogy “less is more” is very popular in my coaching plans. Sessions are high intensity, highly important, and critical to an athletes progression.
Career summary and accomplishments:
5 years as HS football coach at Lancaster HS, 5 years as MS and HS track coach at Lancaster Middle, Lancaster High School, and Amherst Middle -coached school record holders, award winners, and section champions -USATF level 1 certified Coach
Best coach I ever had:
The best coach I have ever had, was my JV football coach. Before I got to varsity football, I had a lot of self confidence issues and struggled to put on weight. Coach Jaskier always believed in me, even when I didn’t. On the days when I couldn’t be bothered to help myself, he would go out of his way to lift me up and believe in me. It’s because of his belief and love that I continued to pursue my passion of playing football. Because of that belief, I played at the varsity level with eventual D1 athletes, and even a future NFL player (ask me about my favorite Joe Andreesen stories!). Coach Jaskier always gave me belief and courage, he always gave me the time of day even when he was busy with other things.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
Any interested athletes and parents should know that I am not the most decorated athlete of all time. I wasn’t even the best athlete on any team that I was a part of. But as a leader and as a captain, I learned how to communicate effectively and passionately to all around me. I treat each individual as the most important in the room, whenever they are with me. I want what’s best for all athletes, and I have the knowledge to help them get there. I will always back my athletes in everything they do in life, as long as they commit to our plan.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I contact a coach?
If you’re looking to message a coach for the first time, go to their profile and click “Send a Message”. A type box will show, where you can enter and send your message. To follow up with a coach you've already contacted, log into your account and find the 'Inbox' tab. You'll see your message history and be able to send another note.
How do I book lessons?
Once you find a coach that fits your needs, go to their profile, select the package you'd like to purchase, and click 'Book Lessons'. Here, you can reserve your desired number of lessons along with the number of athletes who will be training. After sessions are booked, coordinate the dates/times for each session on your calendar - using the calendar is important since this is how your coach will get paid.
Can I pay my coach via Venmo or cash?
Paying AU coaches via cash, Venmo, or any 3rd party is strictly prohibited. AU coaches know this, but their partnership with us is to split all bookings 80/20 - so coaches keep 80%. We use our 20% to help them find clients & manage their business. Without the split, we wouldn't be able to help our coaches & community thrive!
What if I don't feel comfortable paying online?
We integrate with Stripe - the largest & most secure payment processor in the US - to facilitate bookings. Paying online is required, and it simplifies the process for our coaches since it helps track their schedule & earnings in one place. If you have any questions or concerns, please contact our support team.
Where will the coach hold their lessons?
Each coach typically has at least one preferred training location. You can see the location(s) by going to your coach's profile and finding the 'Training Locations' section. If a coach doesn't have locations listed here, you can message the coach to see where they train. Some coaches are willing to travel to clients for lessons, or even meet halfway.
When is the coach available to train?
Each coach sets their own schedule for training. You can see a coach's general availability by going to their profile and finding the 'Availability' section - it will list the days and times. If a coach doesn't post their availability, or if your preferred coach doesn't have your desired times available but you want to double check, message them to see if they can work with your schedule.
What if I don't love the first lesson?
The AU guarantee (refund policy) has you covered! If you determine the coach isn't a good fit after your first lesson, let us know within 24 hours and you're eligible for a refund. We will also be happy to recommend another coach - be sure to contact our support team.
Do coaches work with both kids & adults?
Our coaches are open to helping athletes of any age and skill level. Please message your desired coach to ensure their skillset fits your needs.
Why should I trust AU and their coaches over other platforms?
AU was created by former collegiate and professional athletes. We understand the benefits of training with a private coach. It develops discipline, boosts confidence, and provides an undeniable advantage - whether you are just learning the game or looking to earn a college scholarship. All AU coaches are required to pass a thorough onboarding process and we proudly showcase a 10% acceptance rate, so you can trust you're training with the best.
At the end of the day, our mission is to provide athletes with better opportunities to succeed through coaching. You won't find a platform, and group of dedicated specialists, more excited to help you achieve your athletic goals!
