Get to know Dellisha
Former sprinter helping athletes build speed, confidence, fundamentals.
I’m a former competitive sprinter who coaches athletes on sprint fundamentals, speed development, and proper technique. My focus is on building confidence, discipline, and a strong foundation so athletes can grow, compete, and enjoy the sport.
How I can help you improve
I help athletes improve speed, form, endurance, and mental toughness. My coaching focuses on proper sprint mechanics, explosive starts, and race strategy, while also teaching athletes how to train smart and avoid burnout. I work to build confidence so athletes trust their training and show up ready to compete.
A typical training session
A session usually starts with a dynamic warm-up and mobility work to prevent injury. We move into sprint drills focused on form, acceleration, and speed control. Workouts are structured but encouraging, with clear goals and feedback throughout. Sessions end with conditioning, cool-down stretching, and a quick check-in to reinforce progress.
Career & accomplishments
I competed in winter and spring track, specializing in the 55m, 100m, 200m, 300m, and 400m. I also ran relays including the 4x100m, 2x400m, and 4x400m. I consistently medaled and competed at a high level, gaining experience across both individual and team events. Penn relay medalist! :)
Best coach I ever had
My high school coach, Coach Bleuler, had the biggest impact on me. He pushed me beyond what I thought I was capable of and held me to high standards. Because of his coaching, I consistently medaled and learned what true discipline and commitment look like.
What athletes & parents should know
I am supportive, honest, and committed to athlete growth. I take safety, effort, and progress seriously, and I believe communication with both athletes and parents is key. My goal is not just better performance, but helping athletes develop confidence, work ethic, and a love for the sport that lasts beyond the season.

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.
How do rescheduling, cancellations, and lesson credits work?
Good Fit Guarantee — If your first lesson isn't the right fit, we'll move your lesson credit to a new coach. No hassle.
Easy rescheduling — Cancel or reschedule up to 4 hours before a lesson, no questions asked.
Coach no-shows — You'll be fully credited and we'll help you find a replacement.
Flexible credits — Unused lessons last 12 months and can be used with any coach on the platform.

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 college and pro 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 + background check, 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!
