Award-Winning Soccer Coach Developing Confident, Skilled Players
I am a bilingual soccer coach with over 18 years of experience developing players from youth levels to high school varsity competition. As a former 6A Head Boys Soccer Coach in Houston, I help athletes improve their technical ability, tactical awareness, confidence, and overall performance through personalized training.
I help players become more complete soccer athletes by improving their technical skills, tactical understanding, confidence, and decision-making. Whether you are a beginner learning the fundamentals or an advanced player preparing for competitive soccer, I will create training sessions designed around your goals and areas for improvement.
My sessions are designed around each player's needs and goals. Training can include:
Ball mastery and technical skills
Passing, receiving, and first touch
Dribbling and 1v1 moves
Shooting and finishing
Attacking and defensive concepts
Position-specific training
Tactical understanding and game awareness
Confidence and decision-making

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.
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.
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!
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.
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.
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.
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.
