Get to know Coach Felipe
About Me:
I was fortunate to work with Chivas USA for twelve years; I was in charge of the pre-development academy. My job was to help players improve their IQ and promote them to the academy teams. I was fortunate to be part of the Galaxy training camps and worked with US and international elite athletes. I was part of the Coaching staff at Cerritos College in the 2018 National Championship Team. I am a former MLS NEXT and EAL Coach. I was able to help players improve their game and kept them moving forward from Elite Academy to MLS NEXT Teams. Some of my players moved to professional academies in Mexico.
How I can help you improve your game:
The training is developed based on your goals. Let me know what you want to improve, and we can work on your personal development plan. Example: Improve scoring opportunities as a striker; I can develop your session based on your goal—quick movements to create space to shoot. Improve heading opportunities - develop the training on movement to space and attack the ball.
What a typical training session looks like with me:
The sessions will focus on your goal. We need to make sure you warm up properly to prevent injuries. In the warm-up, I use bands to help you strengthen your lower extremities and core. The first exercise will focus on the skill you want to improve. We move forward from that exercise to a more complex exercise that will help you improve decisions during games (trying to enhance your futbol IQ). Lastly, we finish with an intense game-like scenario, work on your cool-down, and talk about how the training helped you and what we can work on to improve the next session. My goal is to help you improve however you want to improve.
Career summary and accomplishments:
Twelve years working for Chivas USA Six years working for Galaxy Seven years working for MLS NEXT Teams
Best coach I ever had:
My best coach was my Father. He was always there for me, never gave me negative feedback, and always encouraged me to give my best at every training session and game. He told me that if I gave my all and lost the game, it was a good game, but if I did not give my best, I needed to find out why and improve my work ethic.
What athletes and parents should know about me:
I am passionate about teaching the game and improving the player's self-esteem. I believe players can reach their goals with positive guidance and encouragement. You can make mistakes, which is how you grow as a person and player. Once you start to see how you have control of your actions, you can reach your goals by working on those actions.

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!
