Obsession beats talent every time.

Learning how to be consistent is the best way to stay motivated. In a sport where you only race a clock, it is imperative that you learn how to race yourself rather then comparing to those around you. Winning the mental battle will get you further than the physical battle.

Get to know Coach Max

About Me:

Hi all! My name is Coach Max, and I have been swimming for 10 years. I have been through all levels of the sport, from summer swim to competing internationally.

How I can help you improve your game:

I can help improve your game through technique work, video analysis, and talking about recruiting. I can also help with being mentally prepared for meets.

What a typical training session looks like with me:

A typical training session is 2 hours of swimming and 30 minutes of dryland. We also lift 3 times per week, and those typically consist of a 10 minute warm up followed by lifting.

Career summary and accomplishments:

High school - 3x State Champion, Delaware top 100 athlete of the year, 4x first team all state winner, academic all American.

College - “True Blue Hen” award winner, 4x top 10 all time Delaware swimmer, second in 200 medley relay ASUN championships 2026.

International - 3x national champion, 2 year national teamer.

Best coach I ever had:

Pablo Marmolejo is the best coach I have ever had. Not only does he foster a great coaching environment, but he can create relationships with all of his athletes in an individual environment as well as a group environment. His philosophy focuses on making athletes better people first, then better athletes.

What athletes and parents should know about me:

I love swimming. I am a student of this sport. Working hard in the pool and weight room comes easy after doing it for so long, and having the opportunity to pass it along to the next generation is the best gift I can have.

Frequently Asked Questions

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.

Questions? Our team is here to help. View our policies.

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.
